Answer:

  x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of distances from the intersection of secants to the near and far intersections with the circle are the same. For a tangent, the near and far points of intersection with the circle are the same. This relation tells us ...

  (2√3)(2√3) = x(x +4)

  12 = x² +4x

  16 = x² +4x +4 . . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient to complete the square

  4² = (x +2)² . . . . . . . . write as squares

  4 = x +2 . . . . . . . . . . positive square root

  2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If you believe x to be an integer, you can look for factors of 12 that differ by 4.

  12 = 1×12 = 2×6 = 3×4

The factors 2 and 6 differ by 4, so x=2 and x+4=6.

2p + 3x = 680 x = 2p
svlad2 [7]
Use substitution. 

2p + 3(2p) = 680
2p + 6p = 680
8p = 680
p = 85

Plug in.
x = 2p
x = 2(85)
x = 170
p = 85

How many 1/4 are there in 3/8
BigorU [14]

Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

First you need to put the same base for both numbers, finding the minimum common multiple of 4 and 8, that's 8.

Turning 1/4 in a number with 8 as base: first, divide 8 : 4 = 2. Then multiply 1/4 x2 and it will be 2/8.

Then you're able to calculate it: keep the base and add the tops

2/8 + 3/8 = 5/8
