Answer:

9 1/16 in

Step-by-step explanation:

When chords cross, the distances from their point of intersection to the circle have the same product for each chord. For the 9-in chord, those two distances are 4.5 inches. For the diameter, the distances are 4 in and (d-4) in, where d is the diameter of the circle. Then ...

4.5^2 = 4(d -4)

d = 4.5^2/4+4 = 9 1/16 . . . . inches

The diameter is 9 1/16 inches.

_____

<em>Comment on the diagram</em>

The fact that the 9-inch chord looks very much like a diameter tells you the actual diameter won't be much different than that. These figures are not always drawn to scale, and are sometimes misleading. However, if the actual diameter were in the neighborhood of 16 inches, the perpendicular bisector shown would need to be about 1.4 inches instead of 4 inches.

Find the unit rate for each brand. Round to the nearest cent (hundredth).

Natasha_Volkova [10]

The unit rate of each of the brands are:

Brand A's unit rate = 37 cents per ounce.

Brand B's unit rate = 31 cents per ounce.

The unit rate of each brand is simply how much a brand of tomatoes will cost per ounce.

To find the unit rate of each brand, do the following:

Brand A's unit rate = 2.99/8 = $0.37 per ounce = 37 cents per ounce.

Brand B's unit rate = 4.99/16 = $0.31 per ounce = 31 cents per ounce.

DJ Howard is making a playlist for a radio show; he is trying to decide what songs to play and in what order they should be play

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The number of different playlists possible with order important = 1.9996 × 10¹³ ways = 2.00 × 10¹³ ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Selection problems in which the order matters are permutation problems.

So, the choices are 4 reggae songs from 11

4 pop songs from 12

4 rock songs from 23

number of ways = ¹¹P₄ × ¹²P₄ × ²³P₄ = 7920 × 11880 × 212520 = 19,995,921,792,000 = 1.9996 × 10¹³ ways

Function g is defined as g(x)=f (1/2x) what is the graph of g?

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Explanation

We know that g(x) = f(1/2x)

Additionally, the graph of f(x) passes through the point (-2, 0) and (2, 0).

It means that f(-2) = 0 and f(2) = 0

Then, g(-4) = 0 and g(4) = 0 because

$\begin{gathered} g(x)=f(\frac{1}{2}x_{}) \\ g(-4)=f(\frac{1}{2}\cdot-4)=f(-2)=0 \\ g(4)=g(\frac{1}{2}\cdot4)=f(2)=0 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the graph of g(x) will pass through the points (-4, 0) and (4, 0). Since option D. satisfies this condition, the answer is graph D.
