Answer:
x ≈ 3.1 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment from the centre to the chord is a perpendicular bisector, thus
The triangle is right with base = 
x
Applying Pythagoras' identity to the right triangle, then
( x )² + 1.4² = 2.1²
x² + 1.96 = 4.41 ( subtract 1.96 from both sides )
x² = 2.45 ( multiply both sides by 4 )
x² = 9.8 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = 
≈ 3.1 ft ( to the nearest tenth )
Answer:
Scale factor is 2/5 or 0.4

Answer: Choice A</h3>
0.10d + 0.05n = 2.25
d = 2n
================================================
Explanation:
n = number of nickels
d = number of dimes
we have twice as many dimes as nickels, so we could have something like 18 dimes and 9 nickels. Algebraically we would write d = 18 and n = 9. The equation that fits this is d = 2n. The answer is between A and B at this point.
We rule out choice B since the 0.05d is incorrect. It should be 0.10d to represent the total value of all the dimes.
Choice A is correct
d = number of dimes
0.10d = value of all the dimes in dollars
n = number of nickels
0.05n = value of all the nickels in dollars
0.10d + 0.05n = total value from both coins combined
2.25 = total value from both coins combined
0.10d + 0.05n = 2.25
