Look at the attachment
The line bisects the cord which we have to find
- Length of chord=12cm
- Half of the cord=12/2=6cm
- Radius=10cm
Its a right angle triangle
- using Pythagorean theorem






Distance of the chord from centre is 8cm.
Let one pen be

and one pencil as

, we can produce two equations in terms of

and


------> Equation 1

------> Equation 2
We can use either Elimination or Substitution method. Let's try the substitution method
Rearranging equation one to get

and substitute into equation 2, gives





We can use either equation one or equation to work out




The price of one pen is $0.85
The price of one pencil is $0.32
Answer: 5/2 decimal form 2.5
Step-by-step explanation: −y+5.3+7.2y−9
=−y+5.3+7.2y+−9
Combine Like Terms:
=−y+5.3+7.2y+−9
=(−y+7.2y)+(5.3+−9)
=6.2y+−3.7
=5/2 decimal form 2.5
