Answer:

  C.  18 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the sides of the triangle shown is 12 : 15 = 4 : 5. We know it is a right triangle, so we know the missing side length completes the ratio

  3 : 4 : 5 = 9 : 12 : 15

Half of XY is 9 cm, so the length of the entire chord is 18 cm.

_____

The chord is tangent to the inner circle, so makes a 90° angle with the radius to that tangent point. This tells you that the triangle shown is a right triangle. It also tells you that the short radius bisects the chord. The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the length of the side not shown (half the chord length).

The unknown side (a) can be found from  ...

  15² = 12² +a²

  225 -144 = a² . . . . . . subtract 12²

  81 = a² . . . . . . . . . . .  simplify

  9 = a . . . . . . . . . . . . . take the square root

The chord length is 2a, so is ...

  2(9 cm) = 18 cm . . . . length of chord XY

Wei has $150.00 to make a garland using 60-cent balloons. He wants to purchase 100 blue balloons and some number of white balloo
Ronch [10]
Well he wants to buy 100 blue balloons so that would cost 100*0.6. The cost of white balloons(because they are half off) are w*0.3. He has a total of 150 dollars to we get 100*0.6+w*0.3=150 or 60+0.3w=150
Thus we get c

Explain why 323.202 is least<br> than 323.21 even though 202 is Grater than 21
matrenka [14]
It is less than 324.21, because as you can see, all the numbers are equal until you get to the 0 & 1, and 1 is greater than 0

Which one are these paired to the solution
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Option b and d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation : -5x + 4y > -7

Putting the values of x and y one by one in the options,

a) Putting x as 6 and y as 4.

=> -5(6) + 4(4) > -7

=> -30 + 16 > -7

=> -14 > -7

This doesn't satisfy the inequality, hence this couldn't be the ordered pair.

Similarly,

b) Putting x as 5 and y as 5.

=> -5(5) + 4(5) > -7

=> -25 + 20 > -7

=> -5 > -7

This satisfies the inequality, hence this is the ordered pair.

c) Putting x as 3 and y as 2.

=> -5(3) + 4(2) > -7

=> -15 + 8 > -7

=> -7 > -7

This doesn't satisfy the inequality, hence this couldn't be the ordered pair.

d) Putting x as -2 and y as -4.

=> -5(-2) + 4(-4) > -7

=> 10 - 16 > -7

=> -6 > -7

This satisfies the inequality, hence this is the ordered pair.
