Answer:

Answer: D) 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Insersecting chords theorem, when you multiply the lengths of the segments of one of the chords in a circle, the product obtained is equal to the product of the segments of the other chord.

Based on this, you can find the value of "x" with:

Solve for "x" (Applying the Division property of equality, you can divide both sides of the equation by 4). Then:

This value matches with the option D.

german

Answer:

The Inequality Equation =

22 + 9x ≤ 58

The number of T -shirts Debbie can buy is at most 4 T-shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of T shirts Debbie can buy be represented as x

We are told in the question: Debbie has at most $58 to spend on clothes.

This means she would not exceed $58. She would be spending less than or equal to $58

The Inequality Equation =

$22 + $9 × x ≤ $58

22 + 9x ≤ 58

Solving the Inequality Equation above:

22 + 9x ≤ 58

9x ≤ 58 - 22

9x ≤ 36

x ≤ 36/9

x ≤ 4 shirts

The number of T -shirts Debbie can buy is at most 4 T-shirts

The side lengths of the following right triangle 15,20 and 25, as shown below. The altitude from the right angle splits the hypo

kompoz [17]

Answer:

$h = 12$

$x = 9$

$y= 16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Required

Find h, x and y

Let the base of the triangle be 15.

So, the area is:

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 15 * 20$

$i.e\ height = 20$

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 300$

$A = 150$

Let the base of the triangle be 25.

So, the area is:

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 25 * h$

$i.e\ height = h$

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 25h$

Substitute $A = 150$

$\frac{1}{2}*25h = 150$

Solve for h

$h = \frac{150 *2}{25}$

$h = 6 *2$

$h = 12$

Considering the smallest triangle

$Hypotenuse = 15$

So:

$15^2 = h^2 + x^2$

$15^2 = 12^2 + x^2$

This gives:

$15^2 - 12^2 = x^2$

$81 = x^2$

Take square roots

$9 =x$

$x = 9$

Solving for y

$x + y = 25$

$y= 25 - x$

$y= 25 - 9$

$y= 16$
