Answer:

EB = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you can use the power of a point, in the situation where two secants intersect in the interior of a circle. The formula is as follows:

CE * ED = AE * EB

(This is applied specifically to this problem)

We can substitute the values given,

5 * (x - 4) = 3 * x

simplify,

5x - 20 = 3x

and solve.

2x - 20 = 0

2x = 20

x = 10

Since the value of EB is x, EB = 10.

How much longer will it take a car traveling at an average speed for 2 miles per hour to make the trip from San francisco to New
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

1445.6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between New York and San Francisco = 2902.8 miles (checked online)

Average speed of car = 2 mi/hr

Average speed of jet = 500 mi/hr

Time taken by Jet:

Time taken = Distance / speed

Time taken = 2902.8 / 500

Time taken = 5.8056 = 5.8 hours

Time taken by Car :

Time taken = Distance / speed

Time taken = 2902.8 / 2

Time taken = 5.8056 = 1451.4 hours

Time difference :

1451.4 - 5.8 = 1445.6 hours

PLEASE HELP!! HURRY BUT I DON'T WANT GUESSES

The square on the hypotenuse is skew and impossible to visually validate. There's nothing to sum. It is a simple calculation to note that <span><span><span>32</span>+<span>42</span>=<span>52</span></span><span><span>32</span>+<span>42</span>=<span>52</span></span></span><span>, but its picture doesn't 'say' that the angle between the 3 and 4 sided square must be 90 degrees.
