The correct answer is 8
Because
In triangle ORB
OR=(OB^2-RB^2)^1/2
OR=(17^2-15^2)^1/2
OR=(289-225)^1/2
OR=(64)^1/2
OR=8
RB=AB/2 so I kept its value 15 and ^1/2 refers to square root

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: OB= 17 and AB = 30

If a line is perpendicular to a chord of a circle and passes through the centre of the circle, then it bisects that chord.

Using this definition we can say that point R is the midpoint of AB.

RB=\dfrac{AB}{2}

RB=\dfrac{30}{2}

RB=15

According to the Pythagoras theorem, in a right angle triangle

hypotenuse^2=base^2+perpendicular^2

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle ORB,

OB^2=RB^2+OR^2

(17)^2=(15)^2+OR^2

289=225+OR^2

289-225=OR^2

64=OR^2

Taking square root on both sides.

\sqrt{64}=OR

8=OR

The val;ue of OR is 8 units.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

The function y = 3.75 + 2.50(x - 3) can be used to determine the cost in dollars for a uber ride of x miles. What is the rate of
Lina20 [59]
The rate of change in an equation can usually be found with what number is being multiplied with X or whatever variable you have. So in this equation it shows that a ride's cost goes up the more miles (X) you need to go, the number being multiplied would be 2.50 so for each mile you need to go it increases by $2.50. There is a small note though, since you need to subtract 3 from whatever your X is, that means that there is a minimum of 3 miles you need to go for an uber ride to be valid. Regardless, the rate does not change, just has a different minimum.
So the rate of change would be $2.50 per mile

Solve for x : 1/a+b+x =1/a+1/b+1/x
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

  x ∈ {-a, -b}

Step-by-step explanation:

  1/(a+b+x) = 1/a +1/b +1/x . . . . given

  abx = bx(a+b+x) +ax(a+b+x) +ab(a+b+x) . . . . multiply by abx(a+b+x)

  (a+b)x^2 +(a+b)^2x +ab(a+b) = 0 . . . . . subtract abx

  x^2 + (a+b)x +ab = 0 . . . . . divide by (a+b)

This is a quadratic equation in x. It will have two solutions, as given by the quadratic formula.

  x = (-(a+b) ±√((a+b)^2 -4(1)(ab))/(2(1)) = (-(a+b) ± |a -b|)/2

Without loss of generality, we can assume a ≥ b, so |a -b| ≥ 0. Then ...

  x = (-a -b -a +b)/2 = -a

  x = (-a -b +a -b)/2 = -b

There are two solutions: x ∈ {-a, -b}.
