Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 secants intersect a circle from a point outside the circle, then
The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is
x(x + 10 + x) = 6(6 + 10 + x)
x(2x + 10) = 6(16 + x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
2x² + 10x = 96 + 6x ← subtract 96 + 6x from both sides
2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ← in standard form
Divide through by 2
x² + 2x - 48 = 0 ← factor the left side
(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
However x > 0 ⇒ x = 6 → C
Answer:
5/100 = 0.056 sales tax
$12+$26+$125 = $163 total purchase without tax
163*0.056 = 9.128 tax based on how much she bought
$163 + 9.128 = $172.128 total amount she paid (b)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7) The formula for determining the area of a parallelogram is expressed as
Area = base × height.
Length of base = Area/height
Therefore,
Length of base = 7/2 = 3.5 feet
8) The formula for determining the area of a trapezoid is expressed as
Area = 1/2(a + b)h
Where
a and b are the length of the bases
h is the height. Therefore
21 = 1/2(2 + 4)h
21 = 3h
h = 21/3 = 7 inches
9) Area = base × height.
Height = Area/Length of base
Height = 28/14 = 2 inches
10) a and b are 10 inches each.
Area = 1/2(a + b)h
Therefore,
35 = 1/2(10 + 10)h
35 = 10h
h = 35/10
h = 3 inches
5.99(1.75)= 10.4825
10.4825 to the nearest hundredth is 10.48
$10.48
