The radius of a circle is 15 inches. A chord is drawn 4 inches from the center of the circle. How long is the chord?

Let X represent the length of the chord.

By using Pythagoras' Theorem:

4^2 + (X/2)^2 = 15^2

(X^2)/4 = 209

X^2 = 836

X = 28.91

Express as a trinomial: (2x-3)(x 5)
Illusion [34]
I am assuming the expression is (2x-3)(x+5) or (2x-3)(x-5). I will teach you how to solve for both as I am not sure which one you are asking for. There are 4 steps to multiplying.

1) Multiply the x times the second x
2) Multiply x times the second number
3) Multiply the number by the second x
4) Multiply the number by the second number.

(2x*x)+(2x*5)+(-3*x)+(-3*5)=(2x^{2})+(10x)+(-3x)+(-15)=2x^{2}+7x-15

(2x*x)+(2x*-5)+(-3*x)+(-3*-5)=(2x^{2})+(-10x)+(-3x)+(15)=2x^{2}-13x+15

Your answer is 2x^{2}+7x-15 or 2x^{2}-13x+15. Does that answer your question?

If an object is dropped from a height of 144 feet, the function h(t)=-16t^2+144 gives the height of the object after t seconds.
shtirl [24]

Answer:

A. 3s

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the object after t seconds is given by:

h(t) = -16t^2 + 144

When will the object hit the ground?

It hits the ground after t seconds, and t is found when h(t) = 0. So

h(t) = -16t^2 + 144

0 = -16t^2 + 144

16t^2 = 144

t^2 = \frac{144}{16}

t^2 = 9

t = \sqrt{9}

t = 3

3 seconds, so the correct answer is given by option a.

Which transfromations tranforms the graph of f(x)=x^2 to the graph of g(x)=(x+4)^2?
wariber [46]

<em>Greetings from Brasil...</em>

In function F(X) = X², if we replace X with X + 4 we will have exactly function G(X) = (X + 4)²

So, just replace X for X + 4..... This will be responsible for translating 4 units to the left, because:

F(X) = X²

F(X + 4) = (X + 4)²

F(X + 4) ⇔ F(X + k)  <em>  see below</em>

We know that the translations are established as follows:

→ Horizontal

F(X + k) ⇒ k units to the left

F(X - k) ⇒ k units to the right
