The angle the radius makes with AB is a right angle, so the Pythagorean theorem applies.
r² = 17.4² - 7² = 253.76
r = √253.76 ≈ 15.9

The length of radius r is about 15.9.

Explained below :)

(I tried my best, sorry if it doesn't make sense.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Example: 1/4 - 1/8= ?

1: Find the common denominator (bottom number)

2: If the common denominator is 8 then you multiply 1/4 by 2/2 to get the denominator of 8. If you needed then you can multiply the other fraction to get the same denominator.

3: Once you get multiply that then you get 2/8 -1/8.

4: Subtract the numerator (top number) 1

5: Keep the numerator (8)

6: Your answer would be 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to attached graph.

It includes the points and a best fit line produced by a graphing calculator.

17. The scatter plot is attached
18. There is a positive slope. Number of field goal attempts increase as minutes played increase.
19. The point is plotted: 2500 minutes gives about 880 field goal attempts.
