The problem can be solved using the Power of a Point, which states that:

EC \cdot ED=EB \cdot EA.

Substituting

EC=x+4; ED=x+5; EB=x+1; EA=x+12, 

we have the equation

(x+4) \cdot (x+5)=(x+1) \cdot (x+12).

Expanding both sides we get, 

x^2+9x+20=x^2+13x+12.

Subtracting x^2 from both sides, we have
                           
9x+20=13x+12. 
 
Collecting x's and the numbers on two different sides, we have:

4x=8, which finally yields x=2.



Answer: x=2

The owner of a retail store is tracking his inventory for an annual report. The graph shows the remaining inventory for a partic
aliina [53]
Y = -2.8x +69.4

Let y represent units of inventory, and x represent days since the last replenishment. We are given points (x, y) = (3, 61) and (13, 33). The line through these points can be described using the 2-point form of the equation of a line:
... y -y1 = (y2-y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1)
Filling in the given point values, we have ...
... y -61 = (33 -61)/(13 -3)(x -3)
Simplifying and adding 61, we get ...
... y = -2.8x +69.4
