Answer:

The tangent intersects the curve only one point while the chord will intersect the curve at more than one point.

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent will touch the curve while the chord cuts the curve.

The tangent intersects the curve only one point while the chord will intersect the curve at more than one point.

From the diagram in the attachment line BD is a tangent while line BC is a chord.

Solve for x in terms of a,b, and c: ax - 3b =c. . 1: a(c+3b). 2: a (c-3b). 3: c-3/a. 4: c+3b/a
trapecia [35]
We have to solve x in terms of a, b and c:
a x - 3 b = c
a x - 3 b + 3 b = c + 3 b
a x = c + 3 b
x = ( c + 3 b ) : a
Answer:
4 ) ( c + 3 b ) / a

Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator<br><br>​
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

x =  \sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

\tan 30 \degree =  \frac{x}{ \sqrt{6} }  \\  \\  \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } =  \frac{x}{ \sqrt{6} }    \\  \\ x =  \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{ \sqrt{3} }  \\  \\ x = \frac{ \:  \sqrt{3}  \times  \sqrt{2} }{ \sqrt{3} }  \\  \\ x =  \sqrt{2}

Please help!!!!!!!!!
Natali [406]

Answer: $432

Step-by-step explanation: If he marks up the price by 80% then you multiply the price (240) times 0.8, which is 192. That is how much he marks it up -- $192. SO then you add how much he marks it up to the original price of $242 which is $432.

Solve the following system using the substitution method. Show all work! <br> 4x+y=14 <br> x-2y=8
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+y=14

x-2y=8

then;

x=8-2y

substitute;

4(8-2y)+8-2y=14

32-8y+8-2y=14

40-10y=14

26=10y

y=2.6 , work out 4x+2.6=14 to get x

A farmer has 3/4 acre of land. He will use all the land and plant different vegetables in 1/16 -acre sections. How many sections
kati45 [8]

Answer: 12 sections of 1/16 acre

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find how many sections of 1/16 acre we can have in a total area of 3/4 acre.

This is equal to the quotient between 3/4 and 1/16

Remember that if we have two rational numbers (a/b) and (c/d) the quotient can be writen as:

(a/b)/(c/d) = (a/b)*(d/c) = (a*d)/(b*c)

The quotient we want to solve is:

(3/4)/(1/16) = (3/4)*(16/1) = (3*16)/4 = 12

Then you can have 12 sections of 1/16 acre
