Mathematics

Answer:

DC = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

radius = 3x

tangents to the circle = 12 + 5x and 8 + 7x

If you draw line from A to D, two right angle triangle will be form ADC and ADB

having radius  = 3x

<h3>By using pythagorus theorem</h3><h3>hypotenuse² = base² + height²</h3><h3 />

Since, both triangle share same hypotenuse AD

so,

<h3>     ΔADC                        ΔADB</h3><h3>base² + height² = base² + height²</h3><h3 />

3x² + (8 + 7x)² = 3x²  + (12 + 5x)²

3x² will be cancel out

(8 + 7x)² =  (12 + 5x)²

64 + 112x + 49x² = 144 + 120x + 25x²

rearranging like terms

49x²-25x² +112x - 120x + 64 -144 = 0

24x² - 8x - 80 = 0

(x- 2)(x + 5/3)

x = 2

x = -5/3 rejected as radius can't be negative

So,

length of radius = 3x = 6

You work in a chemical lab. Last quarter, you successfully completed an average of about 5 chemical analyses per day. This quart
Kryger [21]

Answer: 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, According to the question,  Last quarter, we successfully completed an average of about 5 chemical analyses per day.

Therefore initially our average = 5 chemical analyses per day.

Again, From the question, This quarter, we have increased this average to about 8 per day.

Therefore New average =chemical analyses 8 per day

Thus, Percentage change in the average = (Initial average - New average)×100/ initial average  

= \frac{8-5}{5} \times 100

= \frac{3}{5} \times 100

= 60 %

Therefore, Percentage change in the average=60 %
