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

An ordinary fair die is a cube with the numbers one through six on the sides represented by painted that. Imagine that such a di
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

ok so what i think your trying to ask is if we roll two dice that the sum will be more then 6

Two dice

Assuming that the dice are unbiased or not " loaded".

Each side has the same probability, is 1/6 =0.16667, to turn up when rolled, if the die (D) is unbiased. The probability of a side turning up on D1 when 2 dice ( D1,D2) are rolled, is independent of the side turning up in D2. So this is an independent event.

How many ways can one get a sum total of 6 if D1 &D2 are rolled at the same time?

These are the possibilities

Case 1.

D1 =1 & D2=5

Or

D1= 5 & D2=1

Case 2.

D1 =2 & D2=4

Or

D1= 4 & D2= 2

Case 3. D1=3, D2=3

P3 =0.027778

Let's say, P 1 the probability for case 1 and P2 for case 2. There are no other cases.

The final probability P and is the sum total P = P1 + P2 + P3 the probability law of mutually exclusive events.

P1= 0.02778+ 0.02778 =0.055558

P2= 0.02778+0.02778 =0.055558

Same way,

P3=0.027778, when there is only one way to get the sum 6.

So, P = 0.138894

Based on truncating at the sixth decimal place.

A visual representation with two unbiased dice and the possible cases would also give the same result and is a short cut method. I like to derive from the basics.

Hope This Helps!!!
