Use the diagram to solve for segments SW and WQ. Show your work and/or explain how you determined the answer

The intersecting chords theorem states that whenever two chords intersect, the product of their pieces is constant.

So, in this case, we have

$\overline{RW}\cdot\overline{WP}=\overline{SW}\cdot\overline{WQ}$

Plugging your values, we have

$8\cdot 9 = 6x \cdot 12x \iff 72=72x^2 \iff x^2=1$

This equation has solutions $x=\pm 1$ , but we can't choose $x=-1$ , because it would lead to

$\overline{SW}=-6,\quad\overline{WQ}=-12$

So, the only feasible solutions is $x=1$

A bookstore had 90 copies of a magazine. Yesterday, it sold 1/6 of them. Today, it sold 1/5 of what remained. How many copies do

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

60 copies

Step-by-step explanation:

first you take 1/6th of the original 90 copies which is 15 and subtract that from the 90, you are left with 75 copies which is how many they had left at the end of yesterday. then you take 1/5th of the 75 copies that are left which is also 15 and you subtract that from 75 and you get 60. that's why at the end of today there are 60 copies left.
