Tony has 24 books in total because if 1/8 of the books are mystery and there are 8 mystery books you have to multiple the denominator by the amount of mystery books (8*3=24).
Answer:
8.3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of lengths to the near and far point of intersection with the circle is the same in all cases:
(7 cm)(7 cm) = (y)(11 cm +y) = (4 cm)(4 cm +x)
Since we're only interested in x, we can divide by 4 and subtract 4:
49 cm² = (4 cm)(4 cm +x)
(49/4) cm = 4 cm +x . . . . . . divide by 4 cm
8.25 cm = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4 cm
To the nearest tenth, x = 8.3 cm.
_____
For a tangent segment, the two points of intersection with the circle are the same point, so the product of lengths is the square of the length.
___
The angles depend on the size of the circle, which is not given.
Factor 11 x^2 y^2 out of both the numerator and the denominator to get 2(11 x^2 y^2)/11x^2 y^2, which is clearly equal to 2.
I did the math and what i got was x=116
