Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants intersect a circle from a point outside the circle, then

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

x(x + 10 + x) = 6(6 + 10 + x)

x(2x + 10) = 6(16 + x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

2x² + 10x = 96 + 6x ← subtract 96 + 6x from both sides

2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ← in standard form

Divide through by 2

x² + 2x - 48 = 0 ← factor the left side

(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

However x > 0 ⇒ x = 6 → C

Find the x- and y-intercepts of 3x + 6y = 18
djyliett [7]
In order to find the x and y intercepts of an equation, you can plug in 0 for the opposite variable. Let us solve for the intercepts now.

<span>x-intercept

</span>We are going to plug in 0 for y and the solve for x:

3x+6y=18
3x+6(0)=18
3x=18
x=6

So now we know the x-intercept of the line is: (6, 0)
<span>
y-intercept</span>

We are going to plug in 0 for x and solve for y:

3x+6y=18
3(0)+6y=18
6y=18
y=3

So now we know that the y-intercept for the line is: (0, 3)

A lotion is made from an oil blend costing $1.50 per ounce and glycerin costing $1.00 per ounce. Four ounces of lotion costs $5.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

A=(4-g) 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g be the amount of glycerin in the lotion.  We know that there are 4 ounces total of lotion; this means that there are 4-g ounces of the oil blend.

The oil blend costs $1.50 per ounce; this gives us the expression (4-g)1.5 for the oil blend.
