we are given two points as

(3, 16) and (5, 10)

firstly , we will find slope

slope is m

so, we can use formula

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

now, we can plug points

m=\frac{10-16}{5-3}

m=\frac{-6}{2}

m=-3

we can plug it in y=mx+b

we get

y=-3x+b

now, we can select any one points

and find b

(3,16)

x=3 and y=16

16=-3*3+b

we can find b

b=25

now, we can plug back b

and we get

y=-3x+25

so, equation is

y=-3x+25

and

b=25...............Answer

Segments in Circles<br><br><br> TW=3, CW=x, TU=x+7, VW=6. Find the value of x.
Kryger [21]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is attached below

  • TW=3
  • CW=x
  • TU=x+7
  • VW=6

TU=TW+WU

x+7=3+WU

WU=x+7-3

WU=x+4

To determine the value of x, we apply the theorem of intersecting chords.

TW X WU = CW X WV

x(x+4)=6 \times x\\x^2+4x=6x\\x^2=6x-4x\\x^2=2x\\$Divide both sides by x\\x=2
