GJ is a tangent
АG is a radius
A tangent line to a circle is perpendicular to the radius drawn to the tangent point   ⇒ m∠АGJ = 90°  ⇒ ΔАGJ is the right triangle.

<span>By the Pythagorean theorem:
</span>AJ² = АG² + GJ²
AJ² = 9² + 12² = 81 + 144 = 225
AJ = √225 = 15 units.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The answer is 10x² - 4x.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to apply Distributive Law,

a(m + n) = am + an

So for this question :

2x(5x - 2)

= 2x(5x) + 2x( - 2)

= 10 {x}^{2}  - 4x

2. A student usually saves $20 per month. He would like to reach a goal of saving $350 in 12 months. The student writes the equa
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

x = 9.17 (nearest hundredth)

The variable x is the amount the student needs to save each month in addition to his usual saved amount of $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

350 = 12(x + 20)

Multiply out brackets:  350 = 12x + 240

Subtract 240 from both sides:  110 = 12x

Divide both sides by 12:  9 1/6 = x

x = 9.17 (nearest hundredth)

The variable x is the amount the student needs to save each month in addition to his usual saved amount of $20.
