So, I have a question if anyone can answer soon. The question: Jill jumped 6 1/3 feet in the long jump. Jill’s best friend jump 6 5/7 feet. How much farther did Jill’s best friend jump?

Now I know the answer is 8/21 but every-time I look up the decimal it’s like 0.3823. But, the next question that talked about if she jumped more than 6.5 feet then the seventh graders get fifty points. Now, I have tried to look up the answer cause I though I was missing something and it all has said the best friend jumped more than 6.5. How? If the decimal was like 0.3823.

Intersecting secant-tangent theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.so to break it down: 1. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p.sr = 21rp = 3x + 3pq = 4x + 4following to equation: tangent squared = the two segments multiplied by each otherso (4x + 4) ^ 2 = (3x + 3) • (21) simplifies to 16x^2 - 31x - 47 = 0 or (16x - 47)(x + 1) x = -1 or x = 47/162. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p (again! )sr = 16rp = xpq = 15(15) ^ 2 = 16 • x225 = 16xx = 225/163. the interesting chords are proportional to each other so a ratio is possible to set up: ap dp 10 3 + x = = —— = pc pb 8 xcross multiple to get 10x = (3 + x)(8)x = 12

The answer is that the rate of change is $50 per 1 monthhope this ; )
