Answer:
y = 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle.
Then the product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant, that is
6(6 + y) = 5(5 + 16)
36 + 6y = 5 × 21 = 105 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
6y = 69 ( divide both parts by 6 )
y = 11.5
Find the two numbers. Algebra -> Customizable Word Problem Solvers -> Numbers -> SOLUTION: The difference of two positive numbers is 8. The larger is twice the smaller decreased by 7.
The equation factored would be (x+7)(x-2). As 7-2=5 and (7)(2)=14.
Answer:
$11.76
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to find the amount of plywood for all birdhouses.
2 3/5 * 8 = 104/5 or 20.8 or 20 4/5
Now we can solve the cost for all the birdhouses by multiplying the total amount of plywood needed by the price per square foot.
20.8 * 0.56 = $11.648 or estimated $11.65
Remember, the question might be different, so don't submit anything yet. If the people who sell the plywood only sell in integer numbers (meaning you can't buy 4/5 of a square foot of wood but can only by amounts with no fractions), then Jenna must buy 21 square feet of plywood and will have a little bit of wood left over. Now solve just like before.
21 * 0.56 = $11.76
Therefore the answer is $11.76 if she can only buy an integer amount of plywood or estimated $11.65. I think the best answer is 11.76.
