Answer:
23x+y=-16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
If AB is a tangent then ∠ ABC = 90° and Δ ABC is right
Using the converse of Pythagoras' identity
If the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
15 is the longest side and 15² = 225
9² + 12² = 81 + 144 = 225
Thus Δ ABC is a right triangle at B
Thus AB is a tangent to the circle at B
nothing can be further simplify in this problem
First multiply and dstribute
a(b+c)=ab+ac
2(3x+2)=6x+4
6x+4=2x-1+x
add like terms
6x+4=3x-1
subtract 3x from both sides
3x+4=-1
subtract 4 from both sides
3x=-5
divide bothe sides by 3
x=-5/3
7*3/10 = 2.1
1*3/4 = 0.75
2.1 + 0.75 = 2.85
hope this helps :)
