Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a = age

$\frac{a}{4} + 6 = \frac{a}{8} + 8$
you will multiply by 8 now
$2a + 48 = a + 64$
now move a's with a's and the numbers that don't have a variable with each other
$2a - a = 64 - 48$
now subtract
$a = 16$
I hope it helps you!

find the area of each sector. Use the 3.14 as the value of pi. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Part 4

Yuri [45]

Answer:

1) 378.1 in²

2) 8.4 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of sector= $\frac{θ°}{360°} \times \pi {r}^{2}$

1) Area of sector

$= \frac{150°}{360°} \times 3.14 \times {17}^{2} \\ = 378.1 \: in^{2} \\ (nearest \: tenth)$

2) Area of sector

$\frac{60°}{360°} \times 3.14 \times {4}^{2} \\ = 8.4 \: m^{2} \\ (nearest \: tenth)$

A circle is shown. Secants S V and T V intersect at point V outside of the circle. Secant S V intersects the circle at point W.

Marat540 [252]

Given:

Secants S V and T V intersect at point V outside of the circle. Secant S V intersects the circle at point W. Secant T V intersects the circle at point U.

The length of TU is (y - 2).

The length of UV is 8.

The length of SW is (y + 4)

The length of WV is 6.

We need to determine the length of line segment SV.

Value of y:

The value of y can be determined using the intersecting secant theorem.

Applying, the theorem, we get;

$WV \times SV=UV \times TV$
