Step-by-step explanation:
2 chords intersecting inside a circle , then the product of the parts of one chord is equal to the product of the parts of the other chord.
6
BE × ED = AE × CE , that is
10 × 3x = 12(2x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis by 12
30x = 24x + 12 ( subtract 24x from both sides )
6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 2
then
ED = 3X = 3(2) = 6
7
RJ × JP = SJ × JQ , that is
6 × 3x = 4(4x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis by 4
18x = 16x + 4 ( subtract 16x from both sides )
2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 2
then
RP = RJ + JP = 6 + 3x = 6 + 3(2) = 6 + 6 = 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a question that uses the Pythagorean Theorem.
a = 35 feet
b = x which is the height of the tree.
c = 3*x + 1 so we are trying to find x. Substitute into a b and c
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
35^2 + x^2 = (3x + 1)^2
35^2 + x^2 = 9x^2 + 6x + 1 Subtract x^2 from both sides.
35^2 = 8x^2 + 6x + 1 Subtract 35^2 from both sides.
0 = 8x^2 + 6x + 1 - 35^2
0 = 8x^2 + 6x - 1224
Does this factor?
(x + 12.75)(x - 12)
x - 12 = 0 is the only value that works.
x = 12
The tree is 12 feet high.
Note: I used the quadratic formula to solve this.
20+5=25 then 25-4.67=20.33 so then you do 20.33/4.5=4.5 so the cost for one pound of fruit is $4.57. Hope this helps :)
85 + 95 = 180$
So 150 - 180 = -30$ so she is 30 dollars in debt.
