Answer:

= 8.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

When a chord intersects with a tangent outside a circle then we use the relationship;

X ² = AO × BO, Where A and are the points of intersection of the chord an the circle, while O is the point of intersection between the chord and the tangent.

Therefore;

x² = 4 × 20 or 8 × 10

x² = 80

x = √80

= 8.944

≈ 8.9

Cassie has test grades of 62, 85 and 89 on the first three tests in herpre-algebra class. What are the possible scores she can m

Vsevolod [243]

Explanation:

The test grade for 1st three tests = 62, 85, 89

Let the fourth test score = x

The result we hoping to get is grade B.

Let's find the average of the four test score

$\text{Average = }\frac{Su\text{ m of all test score}}{nu\text{mber of test score}}$ $\begin{gathered} s\text{ um of test scores = 62 + 85 + 89 + x} \\ nu\text{mber of test score = 4} \\ \frac{\text{62 + 85 + 89 + x}}{4}=\text{ Average} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} A\text{ grade B represents atleast 80} \\ \text{Atleast represents }\ge \\ \frac{\text{62 + 85 + 89 + x}}{4}\text{ }\ge\text{ 80} \\ \frac{\text{236 + x}}{4}\text{ }\ge\text{ 80} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \text{236 + x }\ge\text{ }80(4) \\ \text{236 + x }\ge\text{ }320 \\ \text{subtract }236\text{ from both sides:} \\ 236\text{ - 236 + x }\ge\text{ }320\text{ - 23}6 \\ x\text{ }\ge\text{ 84} \end{gathered}$

This means Cassie needs to score 84 or more to get a grade of B
