I may be wrong but I hope I am not. But one expression is 16 × .15 and another is 16 × 15/100. When multiplying percentages you have to move the decimal that is invisbly behind the last number, two places to the left. The answer you get is the percentage of the price. You would then take the answer and add it to the price. The answer to the multiplication problem is 2.40. You then add the 2.40 to the $16 and that's the new price.
According to the secant-tangent theorem, we have the following expression:
Now, we solve for <em>x</em>.
Then, we use the quadratic formula:
![x_{1,2}=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x_%7B1%2C2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B-b%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bb%5E2-4ac%7D%7D%7B2a%7D)
Where a = 1, b = 6, and c = -315.
![\begin{gathered} x_{1,2}=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt[]{6^2-4\cdot1\cdot(-315)}}{2\cdot1} \\ x_{1,2}=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt[]{36+1260}}{2}=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt[]{1296}}{2} \\ x_{1,2}=\frac{-6\pm36}{2} \\ x_1=\frac{-6+36}{2}=\frac{30}{2}=15 \\ x_2=\frac{-6-36}{2}=\frac{-42}{2}=-21 \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20x_%7B1%2C2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B-6%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B6%5E2-4%5Ccdot1%5Ccdot%28-315%29%7D%7D%7B2%5Ccdot1%7D%20%5C%5C%20x_%7B1%2C2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B-6%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B36%2B1260%7D%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B-6%5Cpm%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B1296%7D%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20x_%7B1%2C2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B-6%5Cpm36%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20x_1%3D%5Cfrac%7B-6%2B36%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B30%7D%7B2%7D%3D15%20%5C%5C%20x_2%3D%5Cfrac%7B-6-36%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B-42%7D%7B2%7D%3D-21%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
<h2>Hence, the answer is 15 because lengths can't be negative.</h2>
Answer:
