Mathematics
1 answer:
pickupchik [31]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

In a circle if two chord intersects as shown in figure

and length of a chord at point of intersection is a and b

and  length of another  chord at point of intersection is c and b

a*b = c*d

using this relation here, we have

8*(x+7) = 10 * (4 +x)

=> 8x + 56 = 40 + 10x

subtracting 40  and 8x from both sides

=>8x + 56  - 8x -40= 40 + 10x -8x -40

=> 16 = 2x

=> x = 16/2 = 8

Thus, x = 8

In triangle ABC, the measure of ∠B is 90°, BC=16, and AC=20. Triangle DEF is similar to triangle ABC, where vertices D, E, and F
nevsk [136]
The third side of triangle ABC is AB. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, its length is 12. 
12² + 16² = 20² 

∠F is congruent to ∠C and so the sin(∠F) = sin(∠C) 

The sin(∠C) = opposite/hypotenuse 
= |AB| / |AC| 
= 12/20 
= 3/5 
= 0.6 

Answer: 
Yes, it is 0.6

Evaluate 3x+5(y+3) when x is 2 less than the quotient of y and 3, and y=12
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

12/3 = 4

4 - 2 = 2

x = 2

using the order of operations, you would first have to do y + 3

y = 12

12 + 3 = 15

the equation simplified is 3 x 2 + 5 x 15

3 x 2 = 6

5 x 15 = 75

75 + 6 = 81

What is the definition of y=mx+b
Brut [27]

Answer:

In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis).
