Answer: 21.44 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Radius r=15 cm

distance of chord from the center is 10 cm

From the figure, the length of the chord is AC

Applying Pythagoras

\Rightarrow AO^2=OB^2+AB^2\\\Rightarrow AB^2=15^2-10^2\\\Rightarrow AB^2=225-100=115\\\Rightarrow AB=\sqrt{115}=10.72\ cm

The length of the chord is AC=2AB=21.44\ cm

Diamonds have a density of 3.5 LaTeX: \frac{g}{cm^3}g c m 3. How big is a diamond that has a mass of 0.10 g?
liubo4ka [24]

For this case we have that by definition, the density is given by:

d = \frac {M} {V}

Where:

M: It is the mass of the diamond

V: It is the volume of the diamond

According to the data of the statement we have:

d = 3.5 \frac {g} {cm ^ 3}\\M = 0.10 \ g

So the volume is:

V = \frac {M} {d}\\V = \frac {0.10 \ g} {3.5 \frac {g} {cm ^ 3}}\\V = 0.02857\\V = 0.03 \ cm^3

Thus, the volume of the diamond is approximately 0.03 \ cm ^ 3

Answer:

0.03 \ cm ^ 3

A cube has a surface area of 294 square cm. Find the length of one side.
DerKrebs [107]
Since a cube has 6 sides, we can divide 294 by 6, so we have the area of one side. Since it is a cube, we can just square root that, and you get 7 cm.

Help me please <br> PLEASEEE
vodka [1.7K]
So you can do 1/2 and then divide it by 1/8.

To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal.
So;
1/2 / 1/8 = 1/2•8/1

1/2• 8 = 8/2
8/2= 4

So he can fill 4 mugs!!!

The work of a student to solve the equation 2(5y − 2) = 12 + 6y is shown below:
jolli1 [7]
We know that Step 1 is correct, because it is just a restatement of the equation. Therefore, we can eliminate Step 1:

2(5y – 2) = 12 + 6y

In Step 2, the student tried using the Distributive Property. The Distributive Property can be written as one of the two following formulas:

a(b + c) = ab + ac
a(b – c) = ab – ac

In this case, we'll use the second formula. Substitute any known values into the equation above and simplify:

2(5y – 2) = 2(5y) – 2(2)
2(5y – 2) = 10y – 4

In Step 2, the student calculated 2(5y – 2) to equal 7y – 4. However, we have just proven that 2(5y – 2) is equal to 10y – 4.

The student first made an error in Step 2, and the correct step is:

Step 2: 10y – 4 = 12 + 6y

I hope this helps!
