I need help with this geometry question
UNO [17]

Answer:

radius ≈ 15.5

Step-by-step explanation:

the radius is RS

the angle between a tangent and the radius at the point of contact is 90°

then Δ RST is a right triangle

using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , then

RS² + ST² = RT² ( substitute values )

RS² + 7² = 17²

RS² + 49 = 289 ( subtract 49 from both sides )

RS² = 240 ( take square root of both sides )

RS = \sqrt{240} ≈ 15.5 ( to 1 dec. place )

A number x is greater than 7 graph line
Anettt [7]

I graphed this line below.

Start with an open dot on 7.

The reason we use an open dot is because x

does not equal 7, it is only greater than 7.

So from your open dot, draw an arrow to the right

to represent all numbers greater than 7.

Finally, state your answer in set notation if possible.

It is read as {x: x > 7}.

Alex is paid $30/hr at full rate, and $20/hr at a reduced rate. The hours of work are paid at a ratio of 2:1, full rate : reduce
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

  $106.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the example, for 3 hours work, Alex would be paid ...

  (2 hr)($30/hr) +(1 hr)($20/hr) = $60 +$20 = $80

At the same rate of pay, for 4 hours work, the pay would be ...

  pay/(4 hr) = $80/(3 hr)

  pay = $80(4/3) ≈ $106.67

Alex's pay for 4 hours of work is $106.67.

If a line is perpendicular to y=-2/3x+2, will it be perpendicular to 2x+3y=12?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

<em>3x + 2y = -2 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given Equation is</em> <em>− 2 x  +  3 y  =  12</em>

3 y  = 2 x  +  12

y =  ( 2 /3 )  y  +  12

<em />

<em>Slope of this line is  </em><em>m  =  2/ 3 </em>

<em> Slope of Line A </em><em> m a  =  2 </em>

<em> Slope of Line B  </em><em>m b  =  2/ 3 </em>

<em> Slope of Line C  </em><em>m c  =  − ( 2 /3 ) </em>

<em> Slope of Line D</em>  <em>m d  =  −  ( 3 /2 ) </em>

since  m d  =  − 1 /m  ,  <em>D</em>  is perpendicular to the given line
