Answer:
d. 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of lengths to the near and far intersection points is the same for both secants:
PB×PA = PD×PC
We can use this relation to solve for x, then use the value of x to find PD.
7×12 = (3x)(7x)
4 = x² . . . . . . . . . divide by 21
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
__
PD = 3x = 3·2
PD = 6
Answer:
Each hiker receives 7 ounces of trail mix
Step-by-step explanation:
Trail mix=quantity of peanuts+quantity of raisins+quantity of walnuts+quantity of chocolate chips
where;
Quantity of peanuts=1.25 pounds
Quantity of raisins=14 oz, since 1 pound=16 oz.
Quantity of raisins=(14/16)=0.875 pounds
Quantity of walnuts=12 oz=(12/16)=0.75 pounds
Quantity of chocolate chips=10 oz=(10/16)=0.625 pounds
Replacing;
Trail mix=(1.25+0.875+0.75+0.625)=3.5 pounds
Trail mix=Quantity per hiker×Number of hikers
where;
Trail mix=3.5 pounds
Quantity per hiker=q
Number of hikers=8
Replacing;
3.5=q×8
q=3.5/8=0.4375 pounds
I pound=16 ounces
q=0.4375×16=7 ounces
Each hiker receives 7 ounces of trail mix
