The correct answer is 3.5

Two chords AC and BD are intersecting inside the circle. The Intersecting Chord Theorem states that when two chords intersect inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal.

Thus, for the given circle:
(AE) × (EC) = (BE) × (ED)

The lengths of the segments are
AE = 7
EC = 2
BE = 4
ED = ?

To solve for ED, we simply substitute the known values into the equation
$ED = \frac{7(2)}{4} = \frac{14}{4} = 3.5$

Solve 7x + 2 < 9x - 4

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

$\boxed{\bold{x>3}}$

Step By Step Explanation:

Subtract 2 From Both Sides

$\bold{7x+2-2$

Simplify

$\bold{7x$

Subtract 9x From Both Sides

$\bold{7x-9x$

Simplify

$\bold{-2x$

Multiply Both Sides By -1 (Reverse Inequality)

$\bold{\left(-2x\right)\left(-1\right)>\left(-6\right)\left(-1\right)}$

Simplify

$\bold{2x>6}$

Divide Both Sides By 2

$\bold{\frac{2x}{2}>\frac{6}{2}}$

Simplify

$\bold{x>3}$

Calculate f(x) for the given domain values.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The given function is

$f(x) = - 3x$

The domain values are: x=0, 2, -1, 4, -2

When x=0

$f(0) = - 3 \times 0 = 0$

When x=2,

$f(x) = - 3 \times 2 = - 6$

When x=-1

$f(x) = - 3 \times - 1 = 3$

When x=4

$f(4) = - 3 \times 4 = - 12$

When x=-2

$f( - 2) = - 3 \times - 2 = 6$

2. The given function is

$f(x) = \frac{1}{3} x$

When x=3,

$f(3) = \frac{1}{3} \times 3 = 1$

Similarly,

$f( - 3) = \frac{1}{3} \times - 3 = - 1$

$f(300) = \frac{1}{3} \times 300 = 100$

$f( - 180) = \frac{1}{3} \times - 180 = - 60$

$f(99) = \frac{1}{3} \times 99 = 33$
