Answer: 3/8 is greater.

Step-by-step explanation:

35% is just 35/100. To compare 3/8 with 35/100, you need to make the denominator of 3/8 into 100. To do this, multiply both he top and the bottom by 12.5. You will get 37.5/100. Now, since the denominators are the same, just compare the numerators. 37.5/100 is greater than 35 so 3/8 is greater than 35%. You could also look at 37.5/100 as 37.5% which is more than 36% and, again, 3/8 is greater than 35%. Hope this helps!

Find the y intercept

erica [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of line ST = Slope of line PQ = -3.

y = -3x + c

When x = 3, y = -1

=> (-1) = -3(3) + c, c = 8

Therefore the equation of line ST is y = -3x + 8 and the y-intercept is 8.

If the diameter of circle O is 20 and CE = 4, then determine the length of AB. Show how you arrived at your answer.

Aneli [31]

Answer: Length of AB is 16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Diameter of a circle is 20 cm and CE = 4 cm

Now as shown in figure AO, BO, CO are radii

$\text { Radius } =\dfrac{\text {Diameter}}{2} = \dfrac{20}{2} = 10 cm$

Therefore

AO=BO=CO= 10 cm

Now

$OE = CO- CE \Rightarrow OE= 10 -4 = 6 cm$

Now in Δ OEB

∠OEB =90°

Therefore by Pythagoras theorem : In a right angle triangle the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of square of other two sides.

So we have

$BO^2=BE^2+EO^2\\\\\Rightarrow 10^2= BE^2 +6^2\\\\\Rightarrow BE^2= 100-36\\\\\Rightarrow BE^2 = 64 \\\\\Rightarrow BE= 8 cm$

Now as we know perpendicular to the chord from the center of a circle bisect the chord.

Therefore

$AB= 2\times BE = 2\times 8=16 cm$

Hence , the length of AB is 16 cm .
