Answer: n=6

Step-by-step explanation:

The intersecting chords theorem says that when two chords intersect each other inside a circle then the products of their segments are equal.

Therefore from the given figure, by intersecting chords theorem we have

$(n+4)\times7=5\times(n+8)\\\\\Rightarrrow7n+28=5n+40\\\\\Rightarrow7n-5n=40-28\\\\\Rightarrow2n=12\\\\\Rightarrow n=6$

Hence, the value of n = 6 units

If z is an even integer which of the following expressions must represent an odd integer?

ad-work [718]

There is no choice on your list that must represent an odd integer.

If 'z' is an even integer, then (z-1) and (z+1) must both be odd integers.

A point $(x, y)$ with integer coordinates is randomly selected such that $0 \le x \le 8$ and $0 \le y \le 4$. what is the probab

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A point (x, y) with integer coordinates is randomly selected such that $0 \le x \le 8 \:and\: $0 \le y \le 4$.$

The possible pairs of (x,y) are:

(0,0),(0,1),(0,2),(0,3),(0,4)

(1,0),(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4)

(2,0),(2,1),(2,2),(2,3),(2,4)

(3,0),(3,1),(3,2),(3,3),(3,4)

(4,0),(4,1),(4,2),(4,3),(4,4)

(5,0),(5,1),(5,2),(5,3),(5,4)

(6,0),(6,1),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4)

(7,0),(7,1),(7,2),(7,3),(7,4)

(8,0),(8,1),(8,2),(8,3),(8,4)

The Total Possible Outcomes n(S)= 45

The pair (x, y) that satisfies the given condition (say event A: $x + y \le 4$ ) are:

$(0,0),(0,1),(0,2),(0,3),(0,4)\\(1,0),(1,1),(1,2),(1,3)\\(2,0),(2,1),(2,2)\\(3,0),(3,1)\\(4,0)$

n(A)=15

Therefore:

$P(A)=\frac{n(A)}{n(S)} =\frac{15}{45} =\frac{1}{3}$
