Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for finding the relationship between a secant and a tangent is
tangent length ^2 = external segment secant/full length of secant
In this case
60^2 = 48*(x + 48) Expand
3600 = 48*(x + 48) Remove the brackets/
3600 = 48x + 48^2 Expand
3600 = 48x + 2304 Subtract 2304 from both sides
3600 - 2304 = 48x
1296 = 48x Divide both sides by 48
1296 / 48 = x
x = 27
Hi there
One pound of salmon will cost $13, and one pound of tuna will cost $8.
Here's why.
X will be the cost of pound of salmon, and y will be the cost of a pound of tuna.
| 15x+8y=259
| 12x+6y-204
6y = 204-12x
y=34-2x
15x+8(34-2x)=259
272-259=16x-15x
x=13
y=34-2*13
y=34-26
y=8
So, again...
1lb Salmon : $13
1lb Tuna : $8
-15t/2 + 14159/272
I'm not exactly sure what you are looking for, but this is what I got.
