Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2
(x+5) *x = 6^2
x^2 +5x = 36
Subtract 36 from each side
x^2 +5x - 36 = 0
Factor
( x-4) (x+9) = 0
Using the zero product property
x-4 = 0 x+9 =0
x = 4 x=-9
Cannot be negative since that is negative length
x=4

Answer:
- -2.2(6) +1.8(4) . . . temperature change
- 42 °C
Step-by-step explanation:
At the end of the first 6 hours, the temperature change was ...
(-2.2 K/h)(6 h) = -13.2 K
The change in the next 4 hours was ...
(1.8 K/h)(4 h) = 7.2 K
Then the total change over the 10-hour period was ...
(-2.2)(6) +(1.8)(4) . . . . . expression for temperature change
This evaluates to -13.2 +7.2 = -6.
__
The final temperature is the sum of the initial temperature and the temperature change:
final temperature = 48 °C -6 °C = 42 °C
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
When temperature is measured on the Celsius scale, a change of 1 degree is called a kelvin (K).

8x - 4y = 8
-4y = -8x + 8
y = -8x/-4 + 8/-4
y = 2x - 2, comparing to y = mx + c, slope m = 2
Slope = 2.
