Answer:

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

On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C is shown. Point A is at (0, 0), point B is at (3, 4), and point C is at (3, 2). What is th

Elena L [17]

Answer:

The area of triangle for the given coordinates is 1.5 $\sqrt{4.6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given coordinates of triangles as

A = (0,0)

B = (3,4)

C = (3,2)

So, The measure of length AB = a = $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}}$

Or, a = $\sqrt{(3-0)^{2}+(4-0)^{2}}$

Or, a = $\sqrt{9+16}$

Or, a = $\sqrt{25}$

∴ a = 5 unit

Similarly

The measure of length BC = b = $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}}$

Or, b = $\sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(2-4)^{2}}$

Or, a = $\sqrt{0+4}$

Or, b = $\sqrt{4}$

∴ b = 2 unit

And

So, The measure of length CA = c = $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}}$

Or, c = $\sqrt{(3-0)^{2}+(2-0)^{2}}$

Or, c = $\sqrt{9+4}$

Or, c = $\sqrt{13}$

∴ c = $\sqrt{13}$ unit

Now, area of Triangle written as , from Heron's formula

A = $\sqrt{s\times (s-a)\times (s-b)\times (s-c)}$

and s = $\frac{a+b+c}{2}$

I.e s = $\frac{5+2+\sqrt{13}}{2}$

Or. s = $\frac{7+\sqrt{13}}{2}$

So, A = $\sqrt{(\frac{(7+\sqrt{13})}{2})\times ((\frac{(7+\sqrt{13})}{2})-5)\times (\frac{7+\sqrt{13}}{2}-2)\times (\frac{7+\sqrt{13}}{2}-\sqrt{13})}$

Or, A = $\sqrt{(\frac{(7+\sqrt{13})}{2})\times (\frac{(\sqrt{13}-3)}{2})\times (\frac{4+\sqrt{13}}{2})\times (\frac{7-\sqrt{13}}{2})}$

Or, A = $\frac{3}{2}$ × $\sqrt{1+\sqrt{13} }$

∴ Area of triangle = 1.5 $\sqrt{4.6}$

Hence The area of triangle for the given coordinates is 1.5 $\sqrt{4.6}$ Answer

-3x+3y=3<br> -5x+y=13<br> Solve for substitution

vladimir1956 [14]

Take -5x + y =13 and rearrange for y:
y=13+5x

Substitute into other equation for y:
-3x+3(13+5x)=3

Multiply out brackets:
-3x+39+15x=3

Simplify:
12x+39=3

Rearrange for x:
12x=-36
x=-3

Substitute back into y=13+5x:
y=13+5(-3)
y=13-15
y=-2

After a power failure, the temperature in a freezer Increased at an average rate of 3.5 °F per hour. The total Increase was 24.5

inna [77]

Answer:

3.5x=24.5

3.5x7=24.5

X=7

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5 times what equals 24.5

3.5x1=3.5

3.5x2=7

3.5x3=10.5

Keep doing this and increase the number you are multiplying 3.5 by until your answer is 24.5.
