Find x [Angles and Segment]

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alex_Xolod [135]3 years ago
6 0

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.

Robin says that polynomials are closed under division. Brad adamantly disagrees. Who is correct? Justify your answer.
serious [3.7K]
Brad is correct.

Polynomials do not include negative exponents; this means there can be no variables in the denominator.  If two polynomials do not divide evenly, the remainder is written as a fraction with the divisor (which can include a variable) in the denominator.  This is not a polynomial.

write the standard form of the equation of the line described. through (-2,3), perpendicular to y=2/7x+5
Setler79 [48]
The general form of a linear equation is
y = mx + b
where m = slope and b = y-intercept
Here m = 2/7
To get to its perpendicular equation, first the slope should be negative reciprocal. So the perpendicular slope is m = -7/2
Given the point (-2,3), use the point-slope form equation, that is
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Plug in
y - 3 = (-7/2)[x - (-2)]
y - 3 = (-7/2)x - 7
y = (-7/2)x - 7 + 3
y = (-7/2)x - 4
That is the equation required.

Factor using the trinomial<br> 10.<br> X2 + 13x + 12
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Factoring the trinomial: x^2+13x+12 we get the factors \mathbf{(x+1)(x+12)}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to factor the trinomial: x^2+13x+12

We can factor the trinomial by breaking the middle term i.e 13x

Such that adding or subtracting gets the both terms we get 13x and multiplying both terms we get 12x^2

We can break 13x as: 12x and x

Adding them we get 13x and multiplying them we get 12x^2

So,

x^2+13x+12\\=x^2+12x+x+12\\=x(x+12)+1(x+12)\\=(x+1)(x+12)

So, Factoring the trinomial: x^2+13x+12 we get the factors \mathbf{(x+1)(x+12)}

The sum of two numbers is 98 and the difference between them is 48. find the two numbers.
zavuch27 [327]
So first what you want to do is take 98 and subtract it by 48. Which gives us 50. Now what we do is that since we are finding two numbers we would have to divide that by half, which would give us 25. Both of them are now equal. To find the number that makes that difference, we need to add 48 to one of the 25 values. Which would be 73. Meaning that the two numbers are 73 and 25. They both add up to 98 and 73 has a difference of 48 from 25.
