Complete Question:

A circle is shown. Chords A C and B D intersect at point E. The length of A E is x, the length of E C is x + 12, the length of B E is x + 2, and the length of E D is x + 5. BE is 2 units longer than AE, DE is 5 units longer than AE, and CE is 12 units longer than AE. What is BD?

*The circle is attached below in the attachment

Answer:

BD = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AE = x

EC = x + 12

BE = x + 2

ED = x + 5

Required:

Length of BD

Solution:

First, create an equation to find the value of (x + 2)(x + 5) = (x)(x + 12) => intersecting chords theorem

x(x + 5) + 2(x + 5) = x(x + 12)

x² + 5x + 2x + 10 = x² + 12x

Add like terms

x² + 7x + 10 = x² + 12x

Subtract x² from each side

x² + 7x + 10 - x² = x² + 12x - x²

7x + 10 = 12x

10 = 12x - 7x

10 = 5x

10/5 = 5x/5

2 = x

x = 2

Next, find BD:

BD = BE + ED

BD = x + 2 + x + 5

Add like terms

BD = 2x + 7

Plug in the value of x

BD = 2(2) + 7

BD = 4 + 7

BD = 11

What is the volume of a sphere with a radius of 6 mm?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

V = 904.779\,mm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere can be determined by using the following formula:

V = \frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot r^{3}

V = \frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot (6\,mm)^{3}

V = 904.779\,mm^{3}

For the region bounded by y=2x​, the​ x-axis, and x=1​, determine which of the following is​ greater: the volume of the solid ge
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The correct answer B) The volumes are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a disk of revolution at any x about the x- axis is πy² where y=2x. If we integrate this area on the given range of values of x from x=0 to x=1 , we will get the volume of revolution about the x-axis, which here equals,

\int\limits^1_0 {(pi)y^{2} } \, dx

which when evaluated gives 4pi/3.

Now we have to calculate the volume of revolution about the y-axis. For that we have to first see by drawing the diagram that the area of the CD like disk centered about the y-axis for any y, as we rotate the triangular area given in the question would be pi - pi*x². if we integrate this area over the range of value of y that is from y=0 to y=2 , we will obtain the volume of revolution about the y-axis, which is given by,

\int\limits^2_0 {pi - pix^{2} } \, dy = \int\limits^2_0 {1 - y^{2}/4 } \, dy

If we just evaluate the integral as usual we will get 4pi/3 again(In the second step i have just replaced x with y/2 as given by the equation of the line), which is the same answer we got for the volume of revolution about the x-axis. Which means that the answer B) is correct.
