Answer:

53.0

Step-by-step explanation:

How we get the answer:

the complement of the question proposed one of the choices given beneath:

a) 58.8

b) 53.0

c) 29.4

d) 26.5

as we observe at the figure, AOB an isosceles triangle, and OCB is a right triangle

consider OCB

OC =9, OB= radius = 28

the problem is how to find the length of CA, for that C is a midpoint of segment AB, so AC=BC

BC can be found by using pythagorean theorem

OB²= OC² + CB²,  this implies CB² = OB² - OC²

CB² = 28² - 9² = 784 - 81=703, therefore CB= sqrt (703)=26.51

CB=26.51, since CB= AC, so  AC=CB= 26.51

finally the the length of AB is AB = 2 x CB = 2x AC= 2x 26.51= 53.0

the answer is b) 53.0

Answer:

5x - 8y = -48

Step-by-step explanation:

Move 5/8x to the y side to get (-5/8)x + y = 6. Multiply both sides by -8 to get 5x - 8y = -48.

b) $2000

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

interest = Principal x rate as decimal x time

interest = 20,000 x 0.05 x 4

interest = 4000

b)

interest = Principal x rate as decimal x time

interest = 20,000 x 0.05 x 2

interest = 2000

you save $2000 if you pay after 2 years
