The value of x according to the secant-secant theorem is 4

<h3>Secant-secant theorem</h3>

Secant-secant theorem states if two secants are drawn from an external point to a circle, then the product of the measures of one secant's external part and that entire secant is equal to the product of the measures of the other secant's external part and that entire secant.

Using the equation below;

6(x+6) = 5(5+x+3))

Expand the expression
6x+36 = 5(x+8)

6x + 36 = 5x + 40

Subtract 5x from both sides

6x-5x +36 = 40

Subtract 36 from both sides

6x - 5x = 40 - 36

x = 4

Hence the value of x according to the secant-secant theorem is 4

Which statements are TRUE? Select all that apply. Marisa drives 112 miles in 1 hour and 45 minutes, which means her speed is 64

valentinak56 [21]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Marisa drives 112 miles in 1 hour and 45 minutes, which means her speed is 64 miles per hour.

Speed = Distance / Time

= 112 / 1 45/60

= 112 / 1 3/4

= 112 × 4/7

= 64 miles per hour.

TRUE

b . If 6 pens cost $7.74, then 7 pens cost $9.03.

Cost of one pen = $7.74/6 = $1.29

Cost of 7 pens = $1.29 × 7 = $9.03

TRUE

c. If Raymond drives at a speed of 57 miles per hour, then it takes him 4 hours and 10 minutes to drive 256.5 miles.

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = 256.5 / 57 = 4.5 = 4 hours 30 minutes

FALSE

d. If 17 identical cans of soup cost $38.59, then 3 of the cans must cost $6.81.

Cost of one can = $38.59 / 17 = $2.27

Cost of 3 cans = $2.27 × 3 = $6.81

TRUE

e. Mr. Mayes buys two dozen eggs for $8.40, which means that he pays 70 cents per egg.

A dozen = 12

2 dozens = 12 × 2 = 24

Cost of one egg = $8.40 / 24 = 0.35 = 35 cents

The apother is 4 m and a side is 5.8 m. What is the area

jekas [21]

Answer:

58 m^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of one of the 5 triangles is:

1/2 * 5.8 * 4 = 11.6 m^2

So the area of the pentagon

= 5 + 11.6

= 58 m^2
