Step-by-step explanation:
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try! so im pretty sure its 20
Answer:
the answer to the question is 8
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 secants intersect a circle from a point outside the circle, then
The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is
x(x + 10 + x) = 6(6 + 10 + x)
x(2x + 10) = 6(16 + x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
2x² + 10x = 96 + 6x ← subtract 96 + 6x from both sides
2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ← in standard form
Divide through by 2
x² + 2x - 48 = 0 ← factor the left side
(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
However x > 0 ⇒ x = 6 → C
