.04 hundredths. I cant believe i am still doing this in middle school.<span />
The absolute minimum of this graph is y=-10
So, these are actually pretty simple once you learn the equality used to solve for "x" and when to implement this method. You can use this equality to solve for a segment "x" anytime that two secant lines cutting through a circle come from the same point outside the circle.
Secant: by geometric definition is just a straight line that cuts a curve into multiple pieces.
I did one of them for you hopefully you can use my work for "a" to help you solve for "b".
For a. I got x=7.
In geometry, there is a theorem that states: The measure of an angle formed by two secants, two tangents, or a secant and a tangent drawn from a point outside a circle is equal to half the difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs
Therefore, this problem has two secants, so m∠x= 1/2(141-25)
m∠x=1/2(116)
m∠x=58
Hope this helped :)
