Answer:
b .
Area=(x-5) (x-3)
Area = x^2 -8x+15
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:
Area of a rectangle = width x length
The original length and width was x, so if the stage needs to be 5 feet narrower and 3 feet shorter.
x-5
x-5
The formula is:
A=(x-5) (x-3)
Solving:
A = (x.x) + (x.-3) + (-5.x)+ (-5.-3)
A = x^2 -3x -5x+15
A = x^2 -8x+15
The
purple line is tangent. Tangent line intersects a circle in only 1 point
The
yellow dot is the point of tangency. It is the point where tangent line touches the circle
The
light blue line is secant. Secant line intersects a circle in 2 points
The
red line is the radius. Radius is the distance from center to the outer rim of the circle.
The
green line is the diameter. It is the line passing through the center of a circle. It measures twice the radius
The
gray line is the chord. Chord is the line whose endpoints lie on the circle.
Arc AB is a minor arc
Arc ABCD is a major arc
X^2 + x = 5
hope that helps
