Answer:

  11.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent makes a right angle with the diameter at the point of tangency. So, the triangle is a right triangle, and the Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the length of x. The radius is shown as 7.1, so the diameter will be 14.2.

  x^2 + 14.2^2 = 18^2

  x^2 = 122.36

  x = √122.36 ≈ 11.1

The length of the tangent is about 11.1 units.

For this case we have the following equation:
 y = x2-4x + 3
 Deriving we have the following equation:
 y '= 2x-4
 We equal zero and clear x:
 2x-4 = 0
 x = 4/2
 x = 2
 Substituting in the given equation we have:
 y = (2) ^ 2-4 (2) +3
 y = 4-8 + 3
 y = -1
 The vertex will be the ordered pair:
 (x, y) = (2, -1)
 Answer:
 
(x, y) = (2, -1)

Christine went shopping and bought each of her eighteight nephews a​ gift, either a video costing​ $14.95 or a CD costing​ $16.8

So I think you should set up an equation like this: 14.95x+16.88y=131.18 , x+y=8

so x=8-y, plug this into the original equation:
14.95(8-y)+16.88y=131.18
Evaluate: 119.60-14.95y+16.88y=131.18
Combine like terms: 119.60+1.93y=131.18
Subtract 119.60 from both sides. You get: 1.93y=11.58
Divide both sides by 1.93. You get y=6

Plug into second equation: x+y=8 ---> x+6=8 and solve for x. x=2

Christine bought 2 video games and 6 CDs. 14.95(2)+16.88(6)=131.18
