Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{x=5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the intersecting chord theorem.

DK × BK = AK × CK

12(4x+1) = 14(3 + 3x)

Expand brackets.

48x + 12 = 42 + 42x

Subtract 42x and 12 from both sides.

6x = 30

Divide both sides by 6.

x = 5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 chords intersecting inside a circle, then

the product of the measures of the parts of one chord is equal to the product of the measures of the parts of the other chord, that is

12(4x + 1) = 14(3 + 3x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

48x + 12 = 42 + 42x ( subtract 42x from both sides )

6x + 12 = 42 ( subtract12 from both sides )

6x = 30 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 5

Answer:

2 hours babysitting

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would multiply 14 by 9 and you would get 162

Then you would Subtract 180 by 162 and you would get 18

So than you would keep on multiplying 10 till you get 20 which would be 2

So therefore your answer would be 2

A particular geometric sequence has strictly decreasing terms. After the first term, each successive term is calculated by multi

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

6 possible integers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A decreasing geometric sequence

$Ratio = \frac{m}{7}$

Required

Determine the possible integer values of m

Assume the first term of the sequence to be positive integer x;

The next sequence will be $x * \frac{m}{7}$

The next will be; $x * (\frac{m}{7})^2$

The nth term will be $x * (\frac{m}{7})^{n-1}$

For each of the successive terms to be less than the previous term;

then $\frac{m}{7}$ must be a proper fraction;

This implies that:

$0 < m < 7$

Where 7 is the denominator

The sets of $0 < m < 7$ is $\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$ and their are 6 items in this set

Hence, there are 6 possible integer
