Answer:

It is a right triangle.

So, using Pythagorean theorem: OS² = OR² - RS²

OR = r (radius) + 8

OS = r

RS = 16

=> r² = (r+8)² - 16²

r² = r² + 16r + 64 - 256

r² = r² + 16r - 192

16r = 192

r = 192 / 16 = 12cm²

a) 12 cm²

b) 12 + 8 = 20 cm²

Nataly_w [17]

Well, you would need to compensate for the cost of the banquet hall adding an addition $700 to the goal of $1000.

If you need to raise at least $1700 you can write this inequality.

Let x represent the number of tickets sold.

15x≥1700

x≥ 114 (rounded to the nearest whole number because you can't sell half a ticket)

So, at least 114 tickets need to be sold.

A zero in front of the x would make this a difference of two perfect squares. All of the other option would interfere by adding another term.

ritu can row downstream 20km in 2 hrs and upstream 4km in 2 hrs. find the speed of rowing in still water and the speed of the cu
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Speed of boat in still water is 6km/h

Speed of current is 4km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

We know speed = distance / time

Let the speed of boat in still water be x

Let the speed of current be y

Hence the speed of boat, down stream = x+y

Distance downstream = 20km

Time taken = 2 hours

We have

x+y=\frac{20}{2}

x+y=10       ......(1)

Speed of boat upstream = x-y

Distance upstream = 4

Time taken = 2

We have

x-y=\frac{4}{2}

x-y=2    ...(2)

Adding (1) & (2)

2x=12

x=6

Substituting in (1) we get

y=4
