The distance from the external point ^2 = The external segment of the secant * the full length of the secant.
tangent distance = 6
External portion of the secant = 3
Full length of the secant = x + 3

6^2 = 3*(x + 3) Remove the brackets. 
36 = 3x + 9  Subtract 9 from both sides.
36 - 9 = 3x
27 = 3x Divide by 3
x = 9  <<<<<<<Answer.

USPshnik [31]

Answer:  $122.50

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In          Out

8:00    12:00    = 4 hours

12:45    17:30   =<u> 4.75 hours   </u>

          Total        8.75 hours

8.75 hours x $14/hr = $122.50

Note: to subtract 12:45 from 17:30, borrow 1 hour from 17 and add 60 minutes to 30:

 17:30       →         16:90

- 12:45                -<u> 12:45 </u>

                            4: 45

4 hours 45 minutes = 4\frac{3}{4} = 4.75 hours

3/4w=9 what does w equal?
Studentka2010 [4]
3/4 w = 9

multiply by 4/3 on both sides

4/3 x 3/4 w = 9 x 4/3

w = 9 x 4/3

Simplify that

w = 3 x 4

w = 12

So your final answer is

\boxed{\bf{w=12}}
