MCII-B Typo
For Quick Response Question 8.17 in Math Challenge II-B Geometry, I think there is a typo. I don't think the numbers are possible. Is this a mistake or am I solving the problem incorrectly? Thank you.
I'm not a teacher, but I did this question. Using power of a point, you should be able to find the answer.
Remember, AP*BP=CP*DP.
Speaking of which, if a teacher sees this, I put 32/5 for question 8.17 and it was marked wrong. The correct answer said 6.4, which is equivalent to 32/5. Can you please fix this?
Great answer (everyone is encouraged to answer questions---you don't have to be a teacher)! The question should be read carefully to come up with the correct diagram.
I have updated your Quick Response score for this question. The system doesn't recognize fractions when you fill in a blank, so make sure to answer in decimal for Quick Response questions in your homework. We will update the question to indicate that.
