Solve for x. A. 37 B. 27 C. 30 D. 31

Mathematics
1 answer:
dexar [7]2 years ago

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the relationship between a secant and a tangent is

tangent length ^2 = external segment secant/full length of secant

In this case

60^2 = 48*(x + 48)                   Expand

3600 = 48*(x + 48)                  Remove the brackets/

3600 = 48x + 48^2                 Expand

3600 = 48x + 2304                Subtract 2304 from both sides

3600 - 2304 = 48x              

1296 = 48x                              Divide both sides by 48

1296 / 48 = x        

x = 27

What is the area of this rectangle in square yards?
Vikentia [17]
In the comment of the other answer, you said that the rectangle is 24 x 18 ft.

First, we have to find out how many square feet that is, and then we can convert it to square yards.

The area of a rectangle is the length multiplied by the width.

A = l x w
A = 24 x 18
A = 432 square feet

To find out how many square yards that is, we divide it by 3, because 1 yard is 3 feet.

432 ÷ 3 = 144

The area of a 24x18ft rectangle is 144 square yards.

A student scored a 72, 75, and 83 on the first three tests. All tests have a possibility of 100 points (no bonus points). Is it
alexira [117]
Add 72, 75, and 83, which equal 230. Then, since there are three values, you divide the total (230) by 3, which would equal 76.6 (cont), therefore meaning they can only raise their average (using the three tests, from a base grade of 0) to a 76.6 percent (or 77 if teacher rounds grade)
