<u>Answer </u>

4


<u>Explanation </u>

AP is a tangent meeting a secant BP at P outside the circle.  

(PA)² = (PE)(PB)

PA = 6 and chord BE= 5.

Let PE = x

6² = x(x+5)

36 = x² + 5x

x² + 5x + 2.5² = 36 + 2.5²

(x + 2.5)² = 42.25

(x + 2.5) = √ 42.25 = 6.5

x = 6.5 - 2.5 = 4         or  x = -6.5 - 2.5  = -9

But since length cannot be negative, x = 4.

Rashan buys 3 7/10 pounds of flour and Diego buys 2 3/4 pounds of flour they use 4 3/5 pounds of flour to bake bread. how much f
Alex787 [66]
To make this a bit easier we can convert the fractions to decimals, then add them up to find out how much flour they originally had. Rashan bought 3 7/10 pounds of flour, which becomes 3.7 pounds. Diego bought 2 3/4 pounds of flour, which becomes 2.75 pounds of flour. In total they both had 3.7 + 2.75 = 6.45 pounds of flour.

Now they used 4 3/5 pounds to bake some bread, which becomes 4.6 pounds. To find out how much flour they have left, we subtract the 4.6 from 6.45, which equals 1.85 pounds of flour left.

NO IDEA HELP PLS SO CONFUSING
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

1. slope formula?

2. (0,6)

3. y= -3x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

because the original formula to make a like is y=mx+b.

just plug the values you have into the equation knowing that m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

the slope would be rise/run which in this case the rise is -6 and the run is 2.

so m= -6/2 = -3

and b = 6 because x is 0 when y is 6 for this graph.

(btw I put -6 as the rise because you are going down 6 units instead of going up)
