Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2
(5+x) * 5 = 10^2
Distribute
25 +5x = 100
Subtract 25 from each side
25-25 +5x = 100-25
5x= 75
Divide by 5
5x/5 = 75/5
x = 15
X has to be inside the radical.
It would be
Simplify the radical by breaking the radicand up into a product of known factors.
-19.8 > 3.6y
-19.8/3.6 > 3.6y/3.6
-5.5 > y
(3n)-2=5
Move all numbers without a variable to the right side of the equation
3n=7
Divide 7 by 3
n=2.333
