Answer:

5268

Step-by-step explanation:

length of tangents from a point to the circle are equal.

XY=XZ

91b-283=85b+83

91b-85b=83+283

6b=366

b=366/6=61

XZ=91b-283

=91×61-283

=5551-283

=5268

Answer:

D. 5267

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle XY and XZ are tangent to circle C. This means that the length has of XY and XZ are congruent.

So first you have to set the equations to each other to find what b equals to.

85b+83=91b-283

Add 283 to both sides

85b+366=91b

Subtract 85b on both sides

366=6b

Divide by 6

B=61.

Then you substitute 61 as b in the equation for XY.

85b+83

85(61)+83

5185+83

Suzie solved a linear equation for y. This equivalent equation was her result. y = 7x + 23 Which equations could have been the l

Alika [10]

Answer:

2, 3, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asking for the linear equation Suzie manipulated. The answer should be equal to the starting equation. So, we just need to manipulate the option to y= mx + c format.

1. y + 7x = 23

y= -7x +23 (false)

2. . –7x + y = 23

y= 7x + 23 (true)

3. 2y – 14x = 46

2y= 14x+ 46

y= 7x +23 (true)

4. y – 7x = –23

y= 7x - 23 (false)

5. 7x – y = –23

-y= -7x -23

y= 7x + 23 (true)

The longest side of a triangle is 5 inches longer than the shortest side. The medium side is 2 inches longer than the shortest s

Rom4ik [11]

If we refer to the longest side as x and the shortest side as y and the medium side as z then we come up with this formation:

x+y+z= 22

y is shorter than x by 5 inches so y= x-5

z is longer than y by 2 inches therefore z= x-5 +2

therefore:
x+(x-5)+(x-5+2)=22
x+x-5+x-5+2=22
3x-8=22
3x= 22-8
3x=14
x=
$\frac{14}{3}$

replace x in y and z in previous formations
