Answer:
x = 17, MN = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 secants from an external point to a circle, then
The product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant.
(5)
7(7 + x) = 8(8 + 13) = 8 × 21 = 168 ( divide both sides by 7 )
7 + x = 24 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
x = 17
(6)
9(9 + 2x - 7) = 10(10 + 8)
9(2x + 2) = 10 × 18 = 180 ( divide both sides by 9 )
2x + 2 = 20 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2x = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 9
Then
MN = 2x - 7 = 2(9) - 7 = 18 - 7 = 11
Answer:
5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
9/30 + 16/30 = 25/30 = 5/6
Answer:-25
Step-by-step explanation:
simplify
Answer:
The playground is 160ft by 360ft.
The model is 4in by 9in
First, 1ft = 12 inches.
Then the measures of the playground, in inches, is:
160*12in = 1920 in
360*12in = 4320in
The playground is 1920in by 4320in.
Then, the ratios between the measures of the playground and the model are:
1920in/4in = 480
4320in/9in = 480
This means that each inch in the model, represents 480 inches in the actual playground.
