Green one is main answer and blue one is formula
In this question, you have to form the equation given the formula of the volume : L x W x D
L = W+5
W = W
D = W-1
(W+5)(W)(W-1) = 20
(W^2+5W)(W-1) = 20
W^3+4W^2-5W-20 = 0
Get the roots by factoring it out.
<span>(w +4) *(w +2.236) *(w -2.236)
</span>
So the roots are: -4, -2.236, 2.236.
Since we're talking about dimensions, let's use the positive root..
L = 7.24
W = 2.24
D = 1.24
Applying the secant-tangent theorem, the length of diameter, BA is: A. 52.9.
<h3>What is the Secant-Tangent Theorem?</h3>
Considering the image given, the secant-tangent theorem states that:
DC² = (BC)(BA)
Given the following:
Substitute the values into the equation
30² = (17)(BA)
900/17 = BA
BA ≈ 52.9
Length of the diameter, BA is: A. 52.9
