- 2 /15 - ( - 9/10 )
-2/15 + 9/10 multiply fraction #1 by 2 an fraction #2 by 3 to get
-4 /30 +27/ 30 = 23/30
<u>Question 1</u>
If we let
, then
.
Also, as
bisects
, this means
.
Thus, by the intersecting chords theorem,

However, as distance must be positive, we only consider the positive case, meaning FE=9
<u>Question 2</u>
If we let CE=x, then because AB bisects CD, CE=ED=x.
We also know that since FB=17, the radius of the circle is 17. So, this means that the diameter is 34, and as AE=2, thus means EB=32.
By the intersecting chords theorem,

However, as distance must be positive, we only consider the positive case, meaning CE=8
Answer: x = -6
Step-by-step explanation: The problem gave us the y value, so we can just substitute it into the equation and solve it.
y = x - 6
y = 2x
2x = x - 6 (substitute the y value into the equation)
1x = -6 (subtract x on each side)
x = -6 (1x is basically saying x so you do not need to divide)
The answer is 53/6 in fraction form
I can help!! But could you tell me what the equations are?
