Answer:
8x-6x=-18
8x-6x=2x
2x=-18
-18/2=-9
x=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
From the intersecting secants theorem, If from an exterior point, we draw two secant segments to a circle, then the product of the length of one secant segment and its external secant part will be equal to the product of the length of the other secant segment and its external secant portion.
Thus, applying it to this question;
(x + 27 + 48) × (x + 27) = (x + 45)²
(x + 75)(x + 27) = x² + 90x + 2025
x² + 102x + 2025 = x² + 90x + 2025
Like terms will cancel put to give;
102x - 90x = 0
12x = 0
x = 0/12
x = 0
Jeweler A: 125, 140, 155, 170, 185, 200
Jeweler B: 140, 152, 164, 176, 188, 200
If you count the hours it would be after 5 hours that they would be the same exact amount. The two jewelers would be paid $200.00 after 5 hours.
