For this question, we can use proportional reasoning to find out the answer.
Let us call the point at the other end of line and in between the two expressions, D.
Side AB:AC = BD:DC (remember that ratios are the same as division so you can do the exact same thing with division statements instead).
Now substitute: 8:12 = (x+4):(2x+1).
Now solve (if using division instead of ratios, solve regularily for x):
8:12 = (x+4):(2x+1),
8(2x+1) = 12(x+4),
16x+8 = 12x+48,
16x-12x = 48-8,
4x = 40,
x = 10.

Therefore x = 10

Question:

The circumference of a clock is 22 inches. What is the radius of the clock?

Answer:

Radius = 3.5 inches

Solution:

Shape of the clock is circle.

Circumference of the circle = 2πr

Circumference of a clock = 22 inches

\Rightarrow2\pi r=22

$\Rightarrow2\times\frac{22}{7}\times  r=22

$\Rightarrow\frac{44}{7}\times  r=22

$\Rightarrow  r=22\times \frac{7}{44}

$\Rightarrow  r=\frac{7}{2}

⇒ r = 3.5 inches

Hence the radius of the clock is 3.5 inches.

Where do the brackets go in <br><br> 100 / 10 / 10 / 10 / 10 = 10
adelina 88 [10]
I believe there is no way to solve this question. If you add one more ten or take away one ten it would work:

100 / (10 / (10 / 10)) = 10

But you cannot do this with the current equation.

The radius of the circle x^2+y^2 +px+6y-3=0 is 4. find the possible values of p​
worty [1.4K]

Here, the given equation is,

x^2+y^2+px+6y-3=0

By copairing it with x^2+y^2+2gx+2fy+c=0, we get,

2g=p or, g=p/2

2f=6 or, f=3

c=-3

now the radius is,

r^2=g^2+f^2-c

or, 4^2=(p/2)^2 +3^2 -(-3)

or, 16= p^2/4 +9+3

or, 16-9-3=p^2/4

or p^2/4=4

or, p^2=4×4

or p^2=4^2

or p=4

therefore the rewuired value of p is 4.
