Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the two tangent theory, tangent MN and tangent NP, which are both from point N, are congruent.
That is, 
Solve for x
Subtract 4 from both sides
Answer:
Factor, in mathematics, a number or algebraic expression that divides another number or expression evenly—i.e., with no remainder. For example, 3 and 6 are factors of 12 because 12 ÷ 3 = 4 exactly and 12 ÷ 6 = 2 exactly. The other factors of 12 are 1, 2, 4, and 12. A positive integer greater than 1, or an algebraic expression, that has only two factors (i.e., itself and 1) is termed prime; a positive integer or an algebraic expression that has more than two factors is termed composite. The prime factors of a number or an algebraic expression are those factors which are prime. By the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, except for the order in which the prime factors are written, every whole number larger than 1 can be uniquely expressed as the product of its prime factors; for example, 60 can be written as the product 2·2·3·5.

9
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(6x+3)= -12(x+10)
<u><em>Let's do the first part:</em></u>
-4(6x+3)
<em>**distribute**</em>
-4 x 6x = -24x; -4 x 3 = -12 ->>> -24x - 12
<u><em>Let's do the second part:</em></u>
-12(x+10)
<em>**distribute**</em>
-12 x x = -12x; -12 x 10 = -120 ->>> -12x -120
-24x -12 = -12x - 120
<em>**Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign**</em>
-24x +12x -12 = -120
-12x - 12 = -120
-12x = 108
x = 108/-12
x=9
Given:
r = 3.8x10⁵ km = 3.8x10⁸ m, the distance between the earth and moon,
F = 20.46x10²⁵ N, the gravitational force between the earth and the moon,
G = 6.674x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²), gravitational constant
M = 5.972x10²⁴ kg, the mass of the earth.
Let m = mass of the moon.
Then
F = (G*M*m)/r^2
or
m = (F*r^2)/(G*M)
In SI units,
m = [20.46×10²⁵ * (3.8×10⁸)²]/[6.674×10⁻¹¹ * 5.972×10²⁴]
= 7.4125×10²⁸ kg
Answer: 7.4125x10²⁸ kg
5/8 = 0.625
7/10 = 0.7
the 2 ratios are different so it would not be similar
