Answer:

8.25

Step-by-step explanation:

DC = 14ft

AC = 8ft + the diametre

Lets use d for diametre

The equation we are using is the Segments of Secants and Tangents Theorem, which is DC^{2} = 8ft (or the outside segment) * AC (the whole segment)

14^{2} = 8 * (8 + d)

196 = 64 + 8d

Subtract 64 from 196 to get: 132 = 8d

Divide 8 from 132 to get: d = 16.5

Now the diametre is 16.5, but the radius is half the diametre, so now you have to do: 16.5 / 2

So the radius would end up being 8.25

Answer:

The radius of the aquarium tank is 8.25\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Applying the Tangent Secant Theorem

DC^{2}=AC*8

we have that

AC=(D+8)\ ft

DC=14\ ft

substitute

14^{2}=(D+8)*8

196=8D+64

Solve for D

8D=196-64

8D=132

D=16.5\ ft

Find the radius

The radius is half the diameter

r=16.5/2=8.25\ ft

How many complex roots does the equation below have?
Maslowich

Answer:

  The number of complex roots is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Descartes's rule of signs tells you that the number of positive real roots is 0. The number of negative real roots will be at most 2. The minimum value of the left side will be between x=0 and x=-1, but will never be negative. Thus all six roots are complex.

_____

The magnitude of x^3 will exceed the magnitude of x^6 only for values of x between -1 and 1. Since the magnitude of either of these terms will not be more than 1 in that range, the left-side expression must be positive everywhere.
