If two tangents of circle O meet at the external point P, find X. SHOW WORK

Mathematics

X=5

Since line PA and line PB are both tangent to circle O, it means that they are congruent together. So you have to set the equations together

5(x-2)=2x+5

Distribute

5x-10=2x+5

Add 10 on both sides

5x=2x+15

Subtract 2x on both sides

3x=15

Divide 3 on both sides

x=5

Y-axis, because what i’ve been taught with coordinates, is you crawl before you walk which means is first it’s x-axis then y-axis. so (0,4) would be on the y-axis. :)

Practice Writing Composite Functions Given: f(x) = x - 7 and h(x) = 2x + 3 Write the rule for h(f(x)).
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

<h2>h(f(x)) = 2x - 11</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x - 7

h(x) = 2x + 3

To find h(f(x)) substitute f(x) into h(x) that's replace every x in h(x) by f(x)

That's

h(f(x)) = 2(x - 7) + 3

h(f(x)) = 2x - 14 + 3

We have the final answer as

<h3>h(f(x)) = 2x - 11</h3>

Hope this helps you

5*8=40

8*3=24

Each of these measurements gets added twice, becasue there are 6 faces on a rectangular prism.

40 + 40 + 24 + 24 + 15 + 15 = 158
