Answer:
x = 3 units
SV = 2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In QR and ST are chords such that:
QR = ST = 4
That is both the chords are equal in measure.
Equal chords are at equal distance from the center of the circle. Therefore,
VZ = UZ
4x - 6 = 6
4x = 6 + 6
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3 units
Since, perpendicular dropped from the center of the circle bisects the chord.
This value is approximate.

Explanation:
Let's compute the z score for x = 40
z = (x-mu)/sigma
z = (40-47)/7
z = -1
We're exactly one standard deviation below the mean.
Repeat these steps for x = 68
z = (x-mu)/sigma
z = (68-47)/7
z = 3
This score is exactly three standard deviations above the mean.
Now refer to the Empirical Rule chart below. We'll add up the percentages that are between z = -1 and z = 3. This consists of the two pink regions (each 34%), the right blue region (13.5%) and the right green region (2.35%). These percentages are approximate.
34+34+13.5+2.35 = 83.85
<u>Roughly 83.85%</u> of the one-mile roadways have between 40 and 68 potholes.
