Answer:

FD= +-25.94

Step-by-step explanation:

EF=CF=r(radius)=12

we know,

FD^2=EF^2+ED^2 ......(1)

and

FD^2=CF^2+CD^2 ......(2)

We Know,

area of triangle, a= 1/2xbasexHeight

a=1/2xEFxED .......(3)

and

a=1/2xCFxCD .....(4)

from equation 3 and 4

1/2xEFxED=1/2xCFxCD

=> 1/2x12xED=1/2x12xCD

=>ED=CD

=>13x-16=4x+11

13x-4x=16+11

9x=27

x=3

FD^2=EF^2+(ED)^2

FD^2=(12)^2+(4x3+11)^2

=>FD^2=144+529

=>FD^2=673

FD=+-25.94

Answer:

FD = 25.94

Step-by-step explanation:

13x - 16 = 4x + 11 (Tangents drawn from an external point are equal)

13x - 4x = 11 + 16

9x = 27

x = 3

substituting x in 4x + 11,

4(3) + 11

12 + 11

ΔFED is a right triangle,

FD² = FE² + DE²

FD² = 12² + 23²

FD² = 144 + 529

FD² = 673

FD = 25.94

The width of a container is 5 feet less than its height. Its length is 1 foot longer than its height. The volume of the containe

juin [17]

The height of container is 8 feet

Solution:

Let "w" be the width of container

Let "l" be the length of container

Let "h" be the height of container

The width of a container is 5 feet less than its height

Therefore,

width = height - 5

w = h - 5 ------ eqn 1

Its length is 1 foot longer than its height

length = 1 + height

l = 1 + h ---------- eqn 2

The volume of container is given as:

$v = length \times width \times height$

Given that volume of the container is 216 cubic feet

$216 = l \times w \times h$

Substitute eqn 1 and eqn 2 in above formula

$216 = (1 + h) \times (h-5) \times h\\\\216 = (h+h^2)(h-5)\\\\216 = h^2-5h+h^3-5h^2\\\\216 = h^3-4h^2-5h\\\\h^3-4h^2-5h-216 = 0$

Solve by factoring

$(h-8)(h^2+4h+27) = 0$

Use the zero factor principle

If ab = 0 then a = 0 or b = 0 ( or both a = 0 and b = 0)

Therefore,

$h - 8 = 0\\\\h = 8$

Also,

$h^2+4h+27 = 0$

Solve by quadratic equation formula

$\text {For a quadratic equation } a x^{2}+b x+c=0, \text { where } a \neq 0\\\\x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

$\mathrm{For\:} a=1,\:b=4,\:c=27:\quad h=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{4^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:27}}{2\cdot \:1}$

$h = \frac{-4+\sqrt{4^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:27}}{2}=\frac{-4+\sqrt{92}i}{2}$

Therefore, on solving we get,

$h=-2+\sqrt{23}i,\:h=-2-\sqrt{23}i$

Thus solutions of "h" are:

h = 8

$h=-2+\sqrt{23}i,\:h=-2-\sqrt{23}i$

"h" cannot be a imaginary value

Thus the solution is h = 8

Thus the height of container is 8 feet

Which of the following equations represents a line that is parallel to the line 3x - 2y = 12

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12=3x-2y

2y+12=3x

2y=3x-12

y=(3x-12)/2

y=mx+b

To be parallel to the line above our line must have the same slope or m. The above line has a slope of 3/2 or 1.5 so the parallel line will be

y=1.5x+b, using point (7,10) we can solve for the y intercept or b

10=1.5(7)+b

10=10.5+b

b=-0.5 so our line is

y=1.5x-0.5

Which answer correct estimates the product of 3.09 × 304.87

miv72 [106K]

The answer is 942.05. You get it by multiplying the two numbers together which should give you the product of 942.0483, since the 0 is not the number 5 or more ( which is the rule to round to a higher number) then you go to the hundredths place value which will be underlined for you... 942.0483 and look to the right and since 8 is higher than 5, you change the four to a five, thus giving you your answer 942.05

Calculate the length of the line segment. round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

c) 8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the coordinates of the two points.

(0,8) and (7,3)

Formula:

√(x₁ - x₂)² + (y₁ - y₂)²

Substitute:

√(0 - 7)² + (8 - 3)²

√(-7)² + (5)²

√(49) + (25)

√(74) ≈ 8.6
