Answer:

  12.  x = 5

  13.  z = 2√21

Step-by-step explanation:

For any given pair of intersecting secants, the product of the distances to the near and far circle intersections is a constant. When those intersection points are both the same (as for a tangent), the same is still true: the product is the square of the length of the tangent segment.

12. (x-2)((x-2) +(x+4)) = 4(4+5)

  (x -2)(2x +2) = 36

  x^2 -x -2 = 18 . . . . . . . divide by 2 and eliminate parentheses

  (x -5)(x +4) = 0 . . . . . . subtract 18 and factor

  x = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . by the zero product rule, the only solution with x > 2

___

13. 6(6+8) = z^2

  z = √84 . . . . . . . . take the square root

  z = 2√21 . . . . . . . simplify

Calculate the area of the square shown below (HARD)
sergey [27]
Check the picture below.

recall that in a square, all sides are equal, so if we make b = a, then we get that for one side, also recall that the area of a rectangle is length*width, so in this case,

\bf \stackrel{\textit{area of the square}}{\stackrel{length}{5\sqrt{2}}\cdot \stackrel{width}{5\sqrt{2}}}\implies 25(\sqrt{2})^2\implies 25\cdot 2\implies 50

Is rolling a 3 standard doe and then rolling a sum greater than 4 when counting the next roll an independent event?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you roll 3 from the standard die and then add it with the next roll to see if the sums are greater than 4.

From this explanation you can see that you use the result from your first roll for the second event, so we can conclude that the event is dependent.  

Imagine if we change the result of the first roll into 5, without adding the second roll we can know that the sum will be greater than 4. The first event result will influence the second event, so it is a dependent event.
