Find the measure of KM¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (whole secant) x (external part)

( 7+x+2) * 7 = ( 6+8) * 6

Combine like terms

(9+x) *7 = 14*6

Distribute

63 +7x = 84

Subtract 63

63 +7x -63 = 84-63

7x =21

Divide by 7

7x/7 = 21/7

x = 3

KM = x+2+7

= 3+2+7

=12

the area of a rectangular volleyball court is 1800 square feet the courts length is twice it width write a system of equations t

Marianna [84]

Answer:

The dimensions of the rectangular volleyball court are 60 ft x 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of rectangular volleyball court

y ---> the width of the rectangular volleyball court

we know that

The area of the rectangular volleyball court is equal to

$A=xy$

$A=1,800\ ft^2$

so

$1,800=xy$ ----> equation A

$x=2y$ -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$1,800=(2y)y$

$1,800=2y^2$

Solve for y

Simplify

$900=y^2$

take square root both sides

$y=30\ ft$

<em>Find the value of x</em>

$x=2y$

substitute the value of y

$x=2(30)=60\ ft$

therefore

The dimensions of the rectangular volleyball court are 60 ft x 30 ft
