The two tangent lines for each circle are the same length. Set the equations to equal and solve for x.
1. 4x + 3 = 3x +12
Subtract 3x from each side:
x +3 = 12
Subtract 3 from both sides:
x = 9
2. -2 + x = 2x -7
Subtract 2x from both sides:
-2 - x = -7
Add 2 to each side:
-x = -5
Multiply both sides by -1:
x = 5
Answer:
18 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right angled ; we could use trigonometry ;
Using the angle , 40° ; adjacent side, = 14 feets ; hypotenus = x
Cos θ = Adjacent / hypotenus
Cos 40 = 14 / x
0.7660444 = 14 / x
0.7660444x = 14
x = 14 / 0.7660444
x = 18.27
= 18 ( nearest foot)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
ΔADC and ΔCDB are similar. Therefore the sides are in proportion:

We have

Substitute:
<em>cross multiply</em>


For x use the Pythagorean theorem:

If 5 biscuits cost 40p
1 biscuit would cost (40p divided by 5) 8p
8p multiplied by 3 (to get 3 biscuits) would cost 24p
3 biscuits cost 24p
V of w sphere =


r³
Multiply by 3 on either sides to get rid of the fraction.

3V = 4

r³
Now divide either sides by 4

to isolate r³

r³
4

and 4

cancels out

= r³
Take the cube root to isolate r.
![\sqrt[3]{ \frac{3V}{4 \pi } } = \sqrt[3]{r^3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B3V%7D%7B4%20%5Cpi%20%7D%20%7D%20%3D%20%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Br%5E3%7D%20)
the cube root cancels the cube
= r
