Find the value of x, rounded to the nearest tenth.

Mathematics
1 answer:
ella [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 8.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the theorem of intersecting tangent and secant segments.

"If secant and tangent are drawn to a circle from an external point, the product of lengths of the secant and its external segment will equal the square of the length of tangent."

8(8 + 2) = x²

x² = 80

x = √80

x = 8.944

x ≈ 8.9 units

Therefore, length of the tangent = 8.9 units

The low temperature last week in Iceland was-2.25. The low temperature this week was 1.25. What was the change in temperature fr
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The change in temperature from last week to this week=3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the change in temperature from last week to this week, we need to take last week's temperature and subtract it from this week's temperature.

For example;

Change in temperature=This week's temperature-last week's temperature

where;

This week's temperature=-2.25

last week's temperature=1.25

replacing;

Change in temperature=(1.25)-(-2.25)=1.25+2.25=3.5

The change in temperature from last week to this week=3.5

A line passes through (4, 5) and (8, 9). Which equation best represents the line?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

that is the equation of the line, its slope is 1 and the y-intercept is 1 y = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

we can calculate the slope of this line passing through (4,5) and (8,9) like this:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (9 - 5)/(8 - 4)

m = 4/4

m = 1

so the slope is 1, and now we can use the equation of one point and the slope to write the line's equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 1*(x - 4)

y - 5 = x - 4

y = x + 1

that is the equation of the line, its slope is 1 and the y-intercept is 1
