Cant answer this without giving an equation
It actually says the answer in the question:
"Point D is on segment BC. Segment BC measures 8x units in length. What is the length of segment BC?"
As you can see in the second sentence of the question, it states that segment BC measures 8x units in lengths.
Answer:
y ≈ 4.3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle.
The the product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is
3(3 + y) = 2(2 + 6 + 3) = 2(11) = 22, that is
9 + 3y = 22 ( subtract 9 from both parts )
3y = 13 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y ≈ 4. 3 cm ( to the nearest tenth )
Take X as the original cost 255=1.5x.... Since the value has appreciated by 60% X=255/1.5=170...
