To solve this question we will use a theorem called the intersecting secant theorem which states that "if 2 secants of a circle intersect outside the circle then product of their segments are equal".

Thus, applying this theorem in this question we see that:AC\times BC=EC\times DC

Thus, 10\times 6=12\times DC

Thus, DC\frac{10\times 6}{12}=5 cm

Thus, out of the given options, the first option is the correct option.

Answer:

2) x = -2 , y = 2

3) no solution exists

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-2 x - 3 y = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Perform a substitution.

Substitute y = 2 x + 6 into the first equation:

{-2 x - 3 (2 x + 6) = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Expand the left hand side of the equation -2 x - 3 (2 x + 6) = -2.

-2 x - 3 (2 x + 6) = (-6 x - 18) - 2 x = -8 x - 18:

{-8 x - 18 = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the first equation, look to solve for x:

{-8 x - 18 = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Isolate terms with x to the left hand side.

Add 18 to both sides:

{-8 x = 16

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Solve for x.

Divide both sides by -8:

{x = -2

y = 2 x + 6

Hint: | Perform a back substitution.

Substitute x = -2 into the second equation:

Answer: {x = -2 , y = 2

Cathy rolls a number cube that is labeled from 1 to 6.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: 2/3

Cathy rolls a number cube that is labeled from 1 to 6.

Total outcomes = {1,2,3,4,5,6}

she rolls an even number or a multiple of 3

Outcomes of an even number = {2,4,6}

Outcomes of multiple of 3 = {3,6}

so favorable outcomes of even number or a multiple of 3 = {2,3,4,6}

Probability ( any event) =number of favorable outcomes divide by total  number of outcomes

probability(even number or a multiple of 3) = \frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}
