Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is drawn and attached.

Using the intersecting chord theorem

SL X LT = JL X LK

x X 12 = 14(x-1)

12x=14x-14

12x-14x=-14

-2x=-14

x=7

Therefore:

ST= SL + LT

=x+12

=7+12

ST=19

The correct option is C

In the image, point A is the center of the circle. Which two line segments must be equal in length?

The answer is C (EF and HI)

This is because both lines pass through the centre A, meaning both are diameters. Hence, they are equal in length.

In a scale drawing, a building has a length of 15 cm. The actual length of the building is 37.5 feet. Whats the scale of the dra

Feliz [49]

Answer:

$\frac{15}{37.5}\ \frac{cm}{ft}$

$1.31:100$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale of the drawing is equal to divide the length of a building in the scale drawing by the actual length of a building

$\frac{15}{37.5}\ \frac{cm}{ft}$

That means

15 cm in the drawing represent 37.5 ft in the actual

Remember that

$1\ ft=30.48\ cm$

Convert 15 cm to ft

divide by 30.48

$15\ cm=15/30.48\ ft$

substitute

$\frac{15}{37.5}\ \frac{cm}{ft}=\frac{(15/30.48)}{37.5}=\frac{0.0131}{1}$

$1.31:100$

That means

1.31 units in the drawing represent 100 units in the actual

Okay so you take the number of weekdays to the number of weekends the ratio is 5:2 one month, which usually has 30 days which is 4 weeks tops so that is about 21 week days and and 9 weekends then times both by 12 you get 108 weekends and 252 weekdays i know that only equals 360 but this is a rough estimate so write that as a fraction 3/7 so there is a third that it will be on a weekday
