Answer:
4.4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are interested in calculating the value of x.
Mathematically, a line that comes from the center of the circle and extends to a chord, divides the chord into two equal parts.
This means what we have is a right angled triangle with the radius being the hypotenuse, the half of the length of the chord as the other side of the triangle.
3.7 is half the length of the chord i.e 7.4/2
Thus;
using Pythagoras’ theorem
x^2 = 2.4^2 + 3.7^2
Pythagoras’ posited that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of the triangle.
Thus;
x^2 =5.76 + 13.69
x^2 = 19.45
x = √(19.45)
x = 4.41 inches which is 4.4 inches to the nearest tenth
Answer:
We know the x-intercept only
Explanation:
To answer this equation, we need to go through the options individually and use both points to determine if they are true or false.
• Option 1 - False
According to the the first point given, we know the x-intercept is (3, 0).
• Option 2 - True
We only know the x-intercept. It is (3, 0) which is the first point given. We do not know the y-intercept.
• Option 3 - False
We do not know the y-intercept. We only know the x-intercept. In order to know the y-intercept the second point given must include a zero as the x point. The second point give does not include a zero. It is (-1, -3).
• Option 4 - False
We do not know the y-intercept
Answer:
D is not a supported statement
Step-by-step explanation:
Let take them one by one:
A: from table: 0.57; in statement: 0.5
0.57 > 0.5 so this is supported
B: from table: 0.2+0.16=0.36; in statement: 1/3=0.33,
0.36>0.33 so this is supported
C: 0.07 is the least, so this is supported
D: the table DOES NOT show number of students, but proportions. So statement '7 students' IS NOT supported
E: from table 0.20 overslept. 0.2 < 1/4=0.25, so this is supported
Answer: 32.2

Answers:
- A) Ray QS or Ray QR
- B) Line segment QS or SQ
- C) Plane QSR
- D) Line QS or RQ
=======================================================
Explanation:
Part A)
When naming a ray, always start at the endpoint. This is the first letter and we'll start with point Q.
The second letter is the point that is on the ray where the ray aims at. We have two choices S and R as they are both on the same ray. That's why we can name this Ray QS and Ray QR.
--------------------
Part B)
A segment is named by its endpoints. The order of the endpoints doesn't matter so that's why segment QS is the same as segment SQ. To me, it seems more natural to read from left to right, so QS seems better fitting (again the order doesn't matter).
--------------------
Part C)
When forming a plane, you need 3 noncollinear points. The term "collinear" means the points all fall on the same line. So these three points cannot all fall on the same straight line. In other words, we must be able to form a triangle of some sort.
So that's how we get the name "Plane QSR". The order of the letters doesn't matter.
--------------------
Part D)
To name a line, we just need to pick two points from it. Any two will do. The order doesn't matter. So that's how we get Line QS and Line RQ as two aliases for this same line. It turns out that there are 6 different ways to name this line.
- Line QR
- Line QS
- Line RQ
- Line RS
- Line SQ
- Line SR
