Answer:

y = 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle.

Then the product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant, that is

6(6 + y) = 5(5 + 16)

36 + 6y = 5 × 21 = 105 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

6y = 69 ( divide both parts by 6 )

y = 11.5

Rooter Plus charges a $25 service fee plus $40 per hour of work done. Is this a proportional or non-proportional relationship?

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Non-proportional; the rate of change is $40/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line <u>and the line passes through the origin</u>

Let

x -----> the number of hours

y ----> The total charge in dollars

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

$m=40\ \$/h\\b=\$25$

substitute

$y=40x+25$

This relationship is not proportional, because the line not passes through the origin

therefore

Non-proportional; the rate of change is $40/hour

What is the measure of ∠4? Enter your answer in the box.

charle [14.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\angle 4, \:60\degree \:\&\:61\degree$ are straight line angles.

$\therefore \angle \: 4 + 60 \degree + 60 \degree = 180\degree \\ \\ \therefore \: \angle \: 4 = 180\degree - 121\degree \\ \\ \huge \red {\boxed {\therefore \: \angle \: 4 = 59\degree}}$
