Answer:  Length of AB is 16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Diameter of a circle is 20 cm and CE = 4 cm

Now as shown in figure AO, BO, CO are radii

\text { Radius } =\dfrac{\text {Diameter}}{2} = \dfrac{20}{2} = 10 cm

Therefore

AO=BO=CO= 10 cm

Now

OE = CO- CE  \Rightarrow OE= 10 -4 = 6 cm

Now in Δ OEB

∠OEB =90°

Therefore by Pythagoras theorem : In a right angle triangle the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of square of other two sides.

So we have

BO^2=BE^2+EO^2\\\\\Rightarrow 10^2= BE^2 +6^2\\\\\Rightarrow BE^2= 100-36\\\\\Rightarrow BE^2 = 64 \\\\\Rightarrow BE= 8 cm

Now as we know perpendicular to the chord from the center of a circle bisect the chord.

Therefore

AB= 2\times BE = 2\times 8=16 cm

Hence , the  length of AB is 16 cm .

“If f(x) and it’s inverse function, f^-1(x), are both plotted on the same coordinate plane, where is their point of intersection
Ghella [55]

Answer:

it is not always possible to find their intersection point for e.g take

y=x-1 it's inverse is y=x+1 so their is no intersection point but generally u find intersection points by equalizing their functions

f(x)=f^-1(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+3y=18

subject y according y=mx+c

y=8/3x-6

(-9,-13)

substitute -9 to y=8/3x-6

-13=8/3×(-9)+c

11=c

y=8/3x+11

Can someone please help me please I really need help please answer it correctly
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

<h3>Princeton Florist</h3>

Let the total charge is y, the number of small arrangements is x.

<u>Total charge will be:</u>

  • y = 13x + 47
<h3>Chad's Flowers</h3>

<u>Total charge will be:</u>

  • y = 17x + 35

<u>Since the total charge is same in both shops, we have:</u>

  • 13x + 47 = 17x + 35

<u>Solve for x:</u>

  • 17x - 13x = 47 - 35
  • 4x = 12
  • x = 3

<u>Total cost is:</u>

  • 13*3 + 47 = 39 + 47 = 86

<u>Small arrangements</u> = 3, <u>cost </u>= $86
