Answer:

8.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of lengths to the near and far point of intersection with the circle is the same in all cases:

(7 cm)(7 cm) = (y)(11 cm +y) = (4 cm)(4 cm +x)

Since we're only interested in x, we can divide by 4 and subtract 4:

49 cm² = (4 cm)(4 cm +x)

(49/4) cm = 4 cm +x . . . . . . divide by 4 cm

8.25 cm = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4 cm

To the nearest tenth, x = 8.3 cm.

_____

For a tangent segment, the two points of intersection with the circle are the same point, so the product of lengths is the square of the length.

___

The angles depend on the size of the circle, which is not given.

Suppose that S is the set of successful students in a classroom, and that F stands for the set of freshmen students in that clas

lora16 [44]

Answer:

b) 24

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve building the Venn's diagram of these sets.

We have that n(S) is the number of succesful students in a classroom.

n(F) is the number of freshmen student in that classroom.

We have that:

$n(S) = n(s) + n(S \cap F)$

In which n(s) are those who are succeful but not freshmen and $n(S \cap F)$ are those who are succesful and freshmen.

By the same logic, we also have that:

$n(F) = n(f) + n(S \cap F)$

The union is:

$n(S \cup F) = n(s) + n(f) + n(S \cap F)$

In which

$n(S \cup F) = 58$

$n(s) = n(S) - n(S \cap F) = 54 - n(S \cap F)$

$n(f) = n(F) - n(S \cap F) = 28 - n(S \cap F)$

$n(S \cup F) = n(s) + n(f) + n(S \cap F)$

$58 = 54 - n(S \cap F) + 28 - n(S \cap F) + n(S \cap F)$

$n(S \cap F) = 24$

So the correct answer is:

b) 24

5. What is the slope of the line that passes through (-2, 4) and (7, 1)?

just olya [345]

Answer:

Slope: $-\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Use slope formula to find the slope

$m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2- x1}=\frac{4-1}{-2-7}=\frac{3}{-9} =-\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore the slope of a line that passes through (-2, 4) and (7, 1) is $-\frac{1}{3}$
