Answer:
4.4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are interested in calculating the value of x.
Mathematically, a line that comes from the center of the circle and extends to a chord, divides the chord into two equal parts.
This means what we have is a right angled triangle with the radius being the hypotenuse, the half of the length of the chord as the other side of the triangle.
3.7 is half the length of the chord i.e 7.4/2
Thus;
using Pythagoras’ theorem
x^2 = 2.4^2 + 3.7^2
Pythagoras’ posited that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of the triangle.
Thus;
x^2 =5.76 + 13.69
x^2 = 19.45
x = √(19.45)
x = 4.41 inches which is 4.4 inches to the nearest tenth
Before the fraction: -1/2, i have a negative sign
use y=mx+b
3=-1/2(2)+b
3+1=-1+b+1
4=b
check your work
0=-1/2x+4
0+4=-1/2x
(4)÷(-1/2)=(-1/2x)÷(-1/2)
-2=x
another pair is (-2,0) use this to figure out the other points, and/or the points you have in the multiple choice.
Answer:
1. Two ribbons, A and B. One third of A is equal to all of B. Draw a tape diagram to show the ribbons.
2. Half Robert’s piece of wire is equal to 2/3 of Maria’s wire. The total length of their wires is 10 feet. How much longer is Robert's wire than Maria's?
3. Half Sarah’s wire is equal to 2/5 of Daniel’s. Chris has 3 times as much as Sarah. In all, their wire measures 6 ft. How long is Sarah’s wire in feet?
Answer:
The answer is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Because its original height was 60 feet above sea level but it descends to 60 feet to capture fish so 60 - 60 = 0
