Answer:
x = 5 and -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the intersecting chord theorem which states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.
Hence:
let
a = 6, b = 5, c = x+1 and d = x
Therefore, ab = cd
6*5 = x(x+1)
30 = x²+x
x²+x - 30 = 0
x²+ 6x - 5x - 30 = 0
x(x+6) - 5(x+6) =0
(x-5)(x+6) = 0
x-5 =0 and x+6 = 0
x = 5 and -6

Answer:
n = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
-4(9n + 9) = -12(4n - 6)
Step 2: Solve for <em>n</em>
<u>Distribute:</u> -36n - 36 = -48n + 72
<u>Add 48n to both sides:</u> 12n - 36 = 72
<u>Add 36 to both sides:</u> 12n = 108
<u>Divide both sides by 12:</u> n = 9
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in n to verify if it's a solution.</em>
-4(9(9) + 9) = -12(4(9) - 6)
-4(81 + 9) = -12(36 - 6)
-4(90) = -12(30)
-360 = -360
Answer:
There is a picture below of the number line with the numbers, plotted.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the 2 3/8, you would simply go to 2 and count 3 to the right becuase there are 8 points for each whole number to the next. It's pretty hard to explain sorry. For 1 3/4, you would make the denominator 8, so multiply it by 2. When we do this, we multiply both the numerator and denominator. What is done to one must be done to the other. 3*2 to get 6. 4*2 to get 8. So, 3/4 becomes 6/8. Now, we can go to 1, and count 6 points to the right to get to 1 3/4.
