Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(14+18)* 18 = x^2

32*18 = x^2

576 = x^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(576) = sqrt(x^2)

24 =x

Which statement best describes the graph of x3 − 3x2 − x + 3?

The second choice. Intersects means cuts the y axis. And if you go to -infinity (figuratively speaking! lol) x^3 dominates and goes to -infinity, way down, the other way for infinity

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

29.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is already 28.3 grams in the container, you just have to subtract 57.93 and 28.3 to get your answer because 57.93 is the total.

Which expression is equivalent to the square root of 1/8

irina1246 [14]

When you say "which," it sounds like it should be multiple choice. Anyways, here's the simplified form of $\sqrt{\frac{1}8}}$

$\sqrt{\frac{1}8}} = \frac{\sqrt{1}}{\sqrt{8}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{8}} * \frac{\sqrt{8}}{\sqrt{8}}=\boxed{\frac{\sqrt{8}}8}$

(When simplifying fractions, you should <em>never</em> have a square root on the bottom. Multiply by the square root to cancel it out)
