Answer:

4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

see attachment for the missing figure.

to find the value of AY or x

We'll use intersecting chord theorem i.e  the product of line segment of each chord are equal.

From the figure, we can say that:

BY x YD = AY x YC

BY \times YD = AY \times YC\\3\times 8=x\times 6\\24=6x\\x=\frac{24}{6}\\x=4

Therefore,  AY = 4 units

NNADVOKAT [17]
To solve this, you need to make the amount they built on Monday and the amount they built on Tuesday compatible with each other so you can add them together to subtract that amount from 4.

Start by multiplying 1/2 by 3, and 1/3 by 2.

This gives you 3/6 and 2/6. Now add them together:

3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6

Finally, subtract this amount from 4:

4 - 5/6 = 3 1/6 (19/6 works too)

Hope this helps! :)

Given that G=ab find the percentage increase in G when both a and b<br> increase by 10%
monitta

The percentage change in G is 21 %

<h3>What is Percentage change ?</h3>

Percentage change is defined as the increase or decrease in the value as compared to the original value multiplied by 100.

It is given that

G = ab

when a is increased by 10% the new a will be = 1.1 a

When b is increased by 10% the new b will be 1.1 b

So,

G' = 1.1a *1.1 b

G' = 1.21 ab

G' = 1.21

(G' - G)*100/G = (1.21-1)*100/1

The percentage change is 21 %

(y_final-y_start)/(x_final-x_start) always! :) that easy

(-6-2)/(2-0) = -4

You probably know that if the interval was pretty small, between 0 and 0.0001, it would take you to the concept of slope and derivatives, but average change is just ignoring anything in between x=0, and x=2 (it could go up/down million times, and still the answer would be -4)

hope it helps
