Answer:

CD = 6 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached AB is the tangent of circle O at point B. A secant through point A intersect the circle at C and D.

mAB = 4cm and  mAC = 2cm

We have find the length of CD.

By the theorem of secant and tangent

AB² = AC×AD

Here AC = 2 cm

and AD = AC + CD = (2 + CD)

Now we replace the values in the formula

4² = 2(2 + CD)

16 = 4 + 2.CD

2.CD = 16 - 4 = 12

CD=\frac{12}{2}=6

Therefore CD = 6 cm is the answer.

Answer:

6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use Tangent-secant product (chapter reference), AB/AC = AD/AB so 4/2 = AD/4. AD = 8, CD = AD - AC = 8 - 2 = 6 cm.

Answer:14708

Step-by-step explanation:Exponential Functions:

y=abxy=ab^x this is not right      not correct

y=ab

x

a=starting value = 13000a=\text{starting value = }13000

a=starting value = 13000

r=rate = 2.5%=0.025r=\text{rate = }2.5\% = 0.025

r=rate = 2.5%=0.025

Exponential Growth:\text{Exponential Growth:}

Exponential Growth:

b=1+r=1+0.025=1.025b=1+r=1+0.025=1.025

b=1+r=1+0.025=1.025

Write Exponential Function:

y=13000(1.025)xy=13000(1.025)^x

y=13000(1.025)

x

Put it all together

Plug in time for x:\text{Plug in time for x:}

Plug in time for x:

y=13000(1.025)5y=13000(1.025)^{5}

y=13000(1.025)

5

y=14708.30677y= 14708.30677

y=14708.30677

Evaluate

y≈14708y\approx 14708

y≈14708
