The segments in each figure are tangent to the circle. Find each length.

1 answer:

3 0

The tangents are equal length, so
.. 8x = x^2
We presume their length is not zero, so we can divide by x to get
.. 8 = 2x
.. 4 = x

Then the length of each tangent is 8*4 = 32 units.

Solve for all values of x in simplest form. 9-4|3+5x|=5

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

$x=-2/5\text{ or } x=-4/5$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

$9-4|3+5x|=5$

First, subtract 9 from both sides:

$-4|3+5x|=-4$

Divide both sides by -4:

$|3+5x|=1$

Definition of Absolute Value:

$3+5x=1\text{ or } 3+5x=-1$

Subtract 3 from both sides:

$5x=-2\text{ or } 5x=-4$

Divide both sides by 5:

$x=-2/5\text{ or } x=-4/5$

And we're done!
