Will give brainliest! 2017 amc 12a problem 24 quadrilateral [tex]abcd[/tex] is inscribed in circle [tex]o[/tex] and has side lengths [tex]ab=3, bc=2, cd=6[/tex], and [tex]da=8[/tex]. let [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] be points on [tex]\overline{bd}[/tex] such that [tex]\frac{dx}{bd} = \frac{1}{4}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{by}{bd} = \frac{11}{36}[/tex]. let [tex]e[/tex] be the intersection of line [tex]ax[/tex] and the line through [tex]y[/tex] parallel to [tex]\overline{ad}[/tex]. let [tex]f[/tex] be the intersection of line [tex]cx[/tex] and the line through [tex]e[/tex] parallel to [tex]\overline{ac}[/tex]. let [tex]g[/tex] be the point on circle [tex]o[/tex] other than [tex]c[/tex] that lies on line [tex]cx[/tex]. what is [tex]xf\cdot xg[/tex]? show all work!

For the equations below which statement is true ?

Ascientist wants to use a model to present the results of his detailed scientific investigation. why would a model be useful? a )because the model makes the concepts easier to understand b) because the model is easy to put together and to use c) because the model prevents other scientists from asking questions d) because the model requires the audience to pay full attention to it i don't know what to choose because between a and d a is much more likely than d because it only wants to get the attention of the audience. i'm confuse.
