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

What is the solution to the equation One-fourth x minus one-eighth = StartFraction 7 Over 8 EndFraction + one-half x?
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The solution to the equation is

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the solution to the equation

(1/4)x - 1/8 = 7/8 + (1/2)x

First, add -(1/2)x + 1/8 to both sides of the equation.

(1/4)x - 1/8 - (1/2)x + 1/8 = 7/8 + (1/2)x - (1/2)x + 1/8

[1/4 - 1/2]x = 7/8 + 1/8

x(1 - 2)/4 = (7 + 1)/8

-(1/4)x = 8/8

-(1/4)x = 1

Multiply both sides by -4

x = -4

Which expression is equivalent to the given expression?<br><br> (10c6d-5)(2c-5d4)
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

120c²d - 1200cd² -10c + 100d

Step-by-step explanation:

We will first of all evalute inide the bracket then we expand it.

(10c6d-5)(2c-5d4)

=(60cd-5)(2c-20d)

= 60cd*2c -60cd*20d -5*2c +5*20d

= 120c²d - 1200cd² -10c + 100d

Find the solution of the system of equations.
liubo4ka [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

  • The solution of the equation is (-1,-2)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

  • => x - 6y = 11

           -6x + 6y = -6

  • => 6(x - 6y) = 6(11)

            -6x + 6y = -6

  • => 6x - 36y = 66

            -6x + 6y = -6

  • => -30y = 60

  • => y = -2

  • => x - 6(-2) = 11

  • => x + 12 = 11

  • => x = -1

Hence, the solution of the equation is (-1,-2)

Hoped this helped.

What is the equation of the circle with center (4, 4) that passes through the point (10, 14)?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You use the given information in the standard form of a circle equation to solve for r.  We have (h, k) which is the center and a point (x, y).  The standard equation for a circle is

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Filling in:

(10-4)^2+(14-4)^2=r^2 and

6^2+10^2=r^2 and

r^2=136

Now that we used the coordinate we don't need it anymore.  x and y go back into the equation as x and y, not numbers.  We do, however, need the center.  Writing the equation:

(x-4)^2+(y-4)^2=136 which is choice D.
