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.
Rearrange the equation so that x = 11 divided by 1/8
Solve for x (11 divided by 1/8 = 88)
Answer:
x= -3

Answer:
The radius of the cylinder is: r = 11 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The height of cylinder = h = 16 yards
Volume of cylinder = V = 6079.04 cubic yards
To determine
The radius of cylinder = r = ?
Using the formula involving volume of the cyliner
V = πr²h
substituting h = 16, V = 6079.04 and π = 3.14
6079.04 = 3.14 (r²) 16
r² = [6079.04] / [(3.14) (16)]
r² = 6079.04 / 50.24
r² = 121
As radius can not be negative.
Therefore, the radius of the cylinder is: r = 11 yards
The answer is 618.0 I learned this in 4th grade
