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.

A student has a 2% salt water solution and a 7% salt water solution. To best imitate salt water at a local beach, he needs 1 lit
FromTheMoon [43]

Let

x-------> the amount of 2\% solution

y--------> the amount of 7\% solution

we know that

2\%=0.02\\7\%=0.07\\3.5\%=0.035

so

x+y=1

y=1-x -------> equation A

0.02x+0.07y=0.035 -------> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

0.02x+0.07(1-x)=0.035

0.02x+0.07-0.07x=0.035

0.05x=0.035

x=0.7\ liters

find the value of y

y=1-x

y=1-0.7=0.3\ liters

therefore

The student need 0.7\ liters of 2\% solution and 0.3\ liters of 7\% solution

<u>the answer is</u>

A) The percent values were written incorrectly in the equation

B) The amount of 7% solution should be written as 1 – x, not x – 1.

How do you Simplify :(2p^-3)^5
iragen [17]

Answer:

The final simplification is (32p^-15).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(2p^-3)^5 we have to simplify.

Property to be used:(Power rule)

Power rule states that: (a^x)^y=a^x^y ...the exponents were multiplied.

Using power rule.

We have,

⇒(2p^-3)^5          

⇒(2^5)(p^-3^*5)     ...taking exponents individually.

⇒32(p^-^1^5)         ...2^5=2*2*2*2*2=32

⇒32p^-^1^5

So our final values are 32p^-15

If a and b are independent events then it must be true that P(A|B)=P(A). TRUE OR FALSE.
Vesnalui [34]
This would be true because it shows that p equals either a or b and it also shows that p equals a which is true because it is one of the independent choices.
