Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>According to intersecting chords theorem:</u>
- 21(2x - 6) = 30(x + 1)
- 42x - 126 = 30x + 30
- 42x - 30x = 126 + 30
- 12x = 156
- x = 156/12
- x = 13
<u>Find the value of YZ:</u>
6x + 4y = 12...subtract 6x from both sides
4y = -6x + 12 ...divide both sides by 4
(4/4)y = (-6/4)x + 12/4...reduce
y = -3/2x + 4 <== y = mx + b
Between -2&-1 is the answer
If we divide the area we have to cover by the area of a piece, we will get the number of pieces needed:
