Answer:

BE ≈ 92 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a tangent and a secant from an external point to the circle, then

The square of the tangent is equal to the product of the external part of the secant and the entire secant, that is

BE² = 59(59 + 83) = 59 × 142 = 8378 ( take the square root of both sides )

BE = $\sqrt{8378}$ ≈ 92 m ( to the nearest metre )

Answer: second option y = 2(x + 7/2)^2 + 1/2

Explanation:

1) given:

y = (x + 3)^2 + (x + 4)^2

2) expand the binomials:

y = x^2 + 6x + 9 + x^2 + 8x + 16

3) add like terms:

y = 2x^2 + 14x + 25

4) take common factor 2 of the first two terms:

y = 2 (x^2 + 7x) + 25

5) complete squares for x^2 + 7x

x^2 + 7x = [x +(7/2)x ]^2 - 49/4

6) substitue x^2 + 7x = (x + 7/2)^2 - 49/4 in the equation for y:

y = 2 [ (x + 7/2)^2 - 49/4] + 25

7) take -49/4 out of the square brackets.

y = 2 (x + 7/2)^2 - 49/2 + 25

8) add like terms:

y = 2(x + 7/2)^2 + 1/2

And that is the vertex for of the given expression.

Y varies directly as the square x and inversely as z if y=12 when x=2 and z=7 find y when x=3 and z=9
