<u>Question 1</u>
If we let 
, then 
.
Also, as 
bisects 
, this means 
.
Thus, by the intersecting chords theorem,
However, as distance must be positive, we only consider the positive case, meaning FE=9
<u>Question 2</u>
If we let CE=x, then because AB bisects CD, CE=ED=x.
We also know that since FB=17, the radius of the circle is 17. So, this means that the diameter is 34, and as AE=2, thus means EB=32.
By the intersecting chords theorem,
However, as distance must be positive, we only consider the positive case, meaning CE=8
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the sum of an infinite geometric series with first term a1 and common ratio r (where |r| < 1) is ...
sum = a1/(1 -r)
Applying this to the given series, we get ...
a. sum = 5/(1 -3/4) = 5/(1/4) = 20
b. sum = d/(1 -1/t) = d/((t-1)/t) = dt/(t-1)
_____
The derivation of the above formula is in most texts on sequences and series. In general, you write an expression for the difference of the sum (S) and the product r·S. You find all terms of the series cancel except the first and last, and the last goes to zero in the limit, because r^∞ → 0 for |r| < 1. Hence you get ...
S -rS = a1
S = a1/(1 -r)
Answer:
- y = 0.937976x +12.765
- $12,765
- $31,524
- the cost increase each year
Step-by-step explanation:
1. For this sort of question a graphing calculator or spreadsheet are suitable tools. The attached shows the linear regression line to have the equation ...
... y = 0.937976x + 12.765
where x is years since 2000, and y is average tuition cost in thousands.
2. The y-intercept is the year-2000 tuition: $12,765.
3. Evaluating the formula for x=20 gives y ≈ 31.524, so the year-2020 tuition is expected to be $31,524.
4. The slope is the rate of change of tuition with respect to number of years. It is the average increase per year (in thousands). It amounts to about $938 per year.
5. [not a math question]
Hi there!
So let's see, we have a die and need to know the probability of rolling a number less than or equal to 4. Let's list the numbers that are less than or equal to 4: 1, 2, 3, 4. Now, since we know that there are 6 numbers on a die and 4 of them are less than or equal to 4, we can set up a fraction to find the percentage. The fraction would be 4/6 because 4 out of the 6 numbers on the die are less than or equal to 6. We can simplify 4/6 to 2/3 as well. To find the percentage, all we need to do is divide the numerator by the denominator. This leaves us with approximately 66.66%.
Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
