3y + 3x =24<span>
6y+3x = 39 </span>
subtract first equation from second
6y-3y+3x-3x=39-24
3y=15
y=5
put this value in first equation 3y+3x=24
3*5+3x=24
15+3x=24
3x=9
x=3
Answer: (3;5)

Find the value of x. O is the center of the circle. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

katrin [286]

$x=5.38$ . Correct option C)5.38

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

Here we have , Find the value of x. O is the center of the circle. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. picture is attached . Let's find out:

In the given figure , Let's draw a line from center to the point where cord of length 8 unit is touching the circle or intersecting or , where this chord finishes . This line is radius of circle and is denoted by x , So now we have a right angle triangle with dimensions as :

$Perpendicular =3.6\\Base=\frac{8}{2}=4\\Hypotenuse=x$

By Pythagoras Theorem ,

$Hypotenuse^2=Perpendicular^2+base^2$

⇒ $x^2=(3.6)^2+(4)^2$

⇒ $x=\sqrt{(3.6)^2+(4)^2}$

⇒ $x=\sqrt{12.96+16}$

⇒ $x=\sqrt{28.96}$

⇒ $x=5.38$

Therefore , $x=5.38$ . Correct option C)5.38
