Question

What is the value of x to the nearest tenth? A) 3.3 B) 9.5 C) 8.0 D) 4.7

Answer 1

Answer:

D) 4.7

Step-by-step explanation:

this perpendicular connection with the circle center cuts this intersecting line in half, which is therefore on both sides of x 6.5 long.

I assume 16 is the diameter, so the radius is 8.

therefore, x is one side of the right-angled triangle of

radius

x

half of the intersecting line

Pythagoras

8² = x² + (6.5)²

64 = x² + 42.25

21.75 = x²

x = 4.7
