The two tangent lines for each circle are the same length. Set the equations to equal and solve for x.
1. 4x + 3 = 3x +12
Subtract 3x from each side:
x +3 = 12
Subtract 3 from both sides:
x = 9
2. -2 + x = 2x -7
Subtract 2x from both sides:
-2 - x = -7
Add 2 to each side:
-x = -5
Multiply both sides by -1:
x = 5
Answer:
A. 7 pounds
B. $1.60
Step-by-step explanation:
For A you Divide 21 by 3
For B you Divide 14 by 9
The figure is a trapezoid (or trapezium), and the exact length of the trapezoid is 5 units
<h3>How to determine the length?</h3>
The figure is a trapezoid with the following parameters:
Area = 107.95
Base= 12
Height = 12.7
Length = x
The area of a trapezoid is:
Area = 0.5 * (Base + Length) * Height
So, we have:
0.5 * (12 + Length) * 12.7 = 107.95
Evaluate the product
(12 + Length) * 6.35 = 107.95
Divide both sides by 6.35
12 + Length = 17
Subtract 12 from both sides
Length = 5
Hence, the length of the trapezoid is 5 units
