Mathematics
1 answer:
Annette [7]3 years ago
3 0
-4 | x + 5 | = -16...divide both sides by -4, eliminating it on the left side
| x + 5 | = -16/-4
| x + 5 | = 4

x + 5 = 4           -(x + 5) = 4
x = 4 - 5            -x - 5 = 4
x = -1                 -x = 4 + 5
                          -x = 9
                           x = -9

solutions : x = -1 , x = -9

Which represents the value of What is the length of line segment DG?
Natalka [10]

<u>Answer</u>

12 units


<u>Explanation</u>

This can be solved using the properties of a circle.

DG and EG are secants f the circle.

DG×HG =EG×FG

(x+3+5)×5 = (x+6)×6

(x+8)5 = 6x + 36

5x +40 = 6x + 36

x = 4

DG = (x+3+5)

= 4 + 3 + 5

= 12 units
