The value of x in the secants intersection is 1 units
The value of NM in the tangent and secant intersection is 51 units
<h3>How to find length when secant and tangent intersect?</h3>
The first question, two secant intersect outside the circle.
Therefore,
(6x + 8x)8x = (9 + 7)7
14x(8x) = 16(7)
112x² = 112
x² = 112 / 112
x = √1
x = 1
The second question, tangent and secant intersect,
Therefore,
(x + 3)² = (x - 3)(16 + x - 3)
(x + 3)² = (x - 3)(x + 13)
(x + 3)(x + 3) = (x - 3)(x + 13)
x² + 3x + 3x + 9 = x² + 13x - 3x - 39
x² + 9x + 9 = x² + 10x - 39
x² - x² + 9x - 10x = -39 - 9
-x = - 48
x = 48
NM = 48 + 3 = 51 units

x=0 or x=4
just factorize basically
cancels the x’s so it’d be 3x-12=0 and from that x=4
Answer:
Equals 6 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to add 3 and 2 first. then Put 5 over 6 and 2 over 3 and add them together
We know that 5 fits entirely into our number three times, and then there's a remainder of 4.
If 5 fits three times exactly, it means that our number is at least 15 (5x3).
From here, we have a remainder of 4, which leads to 15+4=19
