OK. Take it slow and easy, one step at a time.
-- Draw a line from the center of the circle to the left end of the
horizontal chord.
(That point doesn't have an identification letter, but it's the other
end of the '10' from point 'A'.)
-- Since that line is also a radius of the circle, its length is 14.5 .
-- When you drew the line, you made a right triangle inside the circle.
The line you drew is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
-- You know the length of the hypotenuse (14.5), and you know
the length of one leg (10). So you can calculate the length of the
other leg ... from the center to point 'A'. That leg is √(14.5² - 10²)
-- Now you know the distance from the center of the circle to point 'A'.
The length of AB is (the radius) minus (the leg that you just found).
Seem reasonable ?
I got 4 for AB. But I was working fast and sloppy. You need to check it.
❄ Hi there,
let us start by considering this: What should we do to get x all by itself?
Since it's
- divided by 4
- multiplied by -1
we should
- multiply (both sides) by 4
- divide (both sides) by -1
So, let's start.
When we divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, we do "the inequality flip" and <em>flip the inequality sign</em>.

I had to do this and it’s fake, my whole class got it wrong even though we all put the right answer so ya
the answer should be 24 because you can divide it into 2 shapes and solve them separately and add those products
Answer: A. He scored 3 under par on each of the first 14 holes and 2 over par on each of the next four holes.
