Answer:  The length of the indicated segment is 14.45 units.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the length of the indicated segment.

From the figure, we note that

A chord is bisected by the radius of the circle that makes a right-angled triangle with hypotenuse measuring 16.1 units and the other two sides measures x units and 7.1 units.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we get

x^2+7.1^2=16.1^2\\\\\Rightarrow x^2+50.41=259.21\\\\\Rightarrow x^2=259.21-50.41\\\\\Rightarrow x^2=208.8\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm\sqrt{208.8}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm14.45.

Since x is the length of side of a triangle, so we get

x = 14.45.

Thus, the length of the indicated segment is 14.45 units.

The red square means the triangle is a right triangle so you can solve for x using the Pythagorean theorem.

x = √(16.1^2 - 7.1^2)

x = √(259.21 - 50.41)

x = √208.8

x = 14.4499

Rounded to the nearest tenth x = 14.4

How do I prove that a quadrilateral is a rectangle?
maw [93]
I think you want to prove that a rectangle is a quadrilateral. You can prove this with definitions. The definition of a quadrilateral is that it is a shape with four sides. Since a rectangle has four sides, that proves that a rectangle is a quadrilateral.

Veronica is choosing between two health clubs. After how many months will the total cost for each health club be the​ same? Yoga
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

14.02

Step-by-step explanation:

You'd have to write equations for the price per month for each club.

Let  x  equal the number of months of membership, and  y  equal the total cost.

Club A's is  y = 24x + 21.50 and Club B's is  y = 17.25 x + 41.00 Because we know that the prices,  y , would be equal, we can set the two equations equal to each other.

24x + 21.50 =17.25 x+ 41.00

subtract 21.50 both sides

. We can now solve for  x  by isolating the variable.

24x=17.25x+19.5

divide 17.25x

1.39x=19.5

divide 1.39 both sides

x=14.02

After five months, the total cost would be the same.

100 BRAINLY POINTS!!!
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

C)   y=-0.5x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Line of best fit (trendline) : a line through a scatter plot of data points that best expresses the relationship between those points.

All the given options for the line of best fit are linear equations.

Therefore, we can add the line of best fit to the graph (see attached), remembering to have roughly the same number of points above and below the line.

Linear equation:  y=mx+b

(where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)

From inspection of the line of best fit, we can see that the y-intercept (where x = 0) is approximately 8.  So this suggests that options C or D are the solution.

We can also see that the slope (gradient) of the line of best fit is approximately -0.5 (as the rate of change (y/x) is -1 unit of y for every +2 units of x).

Therefore, C is the solution, and the closet approximation to the line of best fit is y=-0.5x+8

Find the slant height of a cone with surface area 282.74 ft2 and diameter 10 ft.
ELEN [110]

The formula for the surface area of cone is:

Surface Area of Cone = π * r * l + π * r^2               , where l = slant height

Substituting the given values:

282.74 ft^2 = 3.14 * 5 ft * l + 3.14 * (5 ft)^2

<span>l = 13 ft</span>
