Answer:

16 mugs

Step-by-step explanation:

Total clay bought = 45 lbs

Clay used for sculpture = 15.8 lbs

Clay left over = 17.68 lbs

Clay used for each mug = 0.72 lbs

Number of mug = x

Total clay bought = Clay used for sculpture + Clay left over + (Clay used for each mug * Number of mug)

45 = 15.8 + 17.68 + (0.72 * x)

45 = 33.48 + 0.72x

45 - 33.48 = 0.72x

11.52 = 0.72x

x = 11.52/0.72

x = 16

Number of mug = x = 16 mugs

Suppose a circle has a radius of 13 inches. How far would a 24 inch chord be from the center of the circle? (Hint: Draw a diagra
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Directions

  • Draw a circle
  • Dear a chord with a length of 24 inside the circle. You just have to label it as 24
  • Draw a radius that is perpendicular and a bisector through the chord
  • Draw a radius that is from the center of the circle to one end of the chord.
  • Label where the perpendicular radius to the chord intersect. Call it E.
  • You should get something that looks like  the diagram below. The only thing you have to do is put in the point E which is the midpoint of CB.

Givens

AC = 13 inches                   Given

CB = 24 inches                  Given

CE = 12 inches                    Construction and property of a midpoint.

So what we have now is a right triangle (ACE) with the right angle at E.

What we seek is AE

Formula

AC^2 = CE^2 + AE^2

13^2 = 12^2 + AE^2

169 = 144 + AE^2                     Subtract 144 from both sides.

169 - 144 = 144-144 + AE^2     Combine

25 = AE^2                                Take the square root of both sides

√25 = √AE^2

5 = AE

Answer

The 24 inch chord is 5 inches from the center of the circle.
