Answer:

(a)80 feet

(b)$120,000

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

<u>Intersecting Secant-Tangent Theorem</u>

If a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.

In the attached diagram, the theorem applied is:

|AX|^2=|UX|*|TX|

Comparing with our diagram:

|AX|=30 feet

|UX|=10 feet

Length of the Bridge,L

Therefore:

30^2=10 X ($Length of the Bridge+10)

900=10(L+10)

L+10=900/10

L+10=90

L=90-10=80 feet

Length of the Bridge=80 feet

<u>Part B</u>

If each foot costs $1500

Cost of the bridge=$1500*80=$120,000

Which graph has a slope of ? A coordinate plane with a straight line. The line starts at (negative 5, negative 4) and passes thr
VikaD [51]

Answer:

slope of the first line: 1

slope of the second line: 0.778

slope of the third line: 0.375

slope of the fourth line: 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope of a line is computed as follows:

slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Therefore,

slope of the first line: [5 - (-4)]/[4 - (-5)] = 1

slope of the second line: [5 - (-2)]/[4 - (-5)] = 0.778

slope of the third line: [2 - (-1)]/[3 - (-5)] =  0.375

slope of the fourth line: [5 - (-5)]/[4 - (-4)] = 1.25
