Answer:

x = 13 units .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : A circle with tangent PQ , radius = 5 units , OQ = x .

To find : Find the value of x .

Solution : We have given circle with tangent PQ = 12, radius = 5 units , OQ = x .

The tangent (PQ) to a circle is perpendicular to the radius at the point of tangency ( P).

So, it formed the right triangle PQO.

Now use the Pythagorean Theorem :

(OQ)²  = ( PQ)² + (OP)².

Plug the values PQ = 12, OP =5 units , OQ = x .

(x)²  = ( 12)² + (5)².

(x)²  = 144 + 25 .

(x)²  = 169

By taking the square root .

x = 13 .

Therefore, x = 13 units .

A class at Middlebury school collected date on the types of movies students prefer. Complete each statement using the table.
likoan [24]

Based on the information of the table, you have:

1. The ratio is 105/150. By simplifying you get for the ratio 7/10.

2. The students that prefer action movies are 75+90 = 165 and the total numbe of students is 180+240 = 420. Then, the fraction of students who prefer action movies is:

165/420 = 11/28

3. The fraction of seventh graders students that prefer action movies is:

75/180 = 5/12

4. The percent of student that prefer comedy is:

105 + 150 = 255 total student that prefer comedy

420 total number of students

the fraction is:

(x/100)420 = 255

solve for x:

x = 255(100/420)

x = 60.71

the percent of students is 60.71%

5. The percent of eighth graders student who prefer action moveis is:

(x/100)240 = 90

x = 90(100/240)

x = 37.5

the percent of students is 37.5%

6. To determine which from the given grades has the greatest percent of student that prefer action movies, calculate the percent of student in seventh-grade:

(x/100)180 = 75

x = 75(100/180)

x = 41.66

the percent of student is 41.66%

then, seventh grade has the greatest percent of student that prefer action movies.

Find the mean of the snowfall amounts?
ser-zykov [4K]
Mean is the same as average. Adding up all the amounts then dividing it by the number of amounts. In this case, we add up all the snowfall amounts and then we divide it by 10 ( the count or number of snowfall amounts).
In equation,
(13+19+16+23+11+18+14+26+13+16) / 10 = 16.9

Th answer is A. 16.9 inches.
