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
Answer:
The product (–5)(–3)(–8)(–6) should be Positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of 2 negative numbers equal a positive product.
N * N = P
-5*-3=15
-8*-6=48
The product of 2 positive numbers is positive.
P * P = P
15 * 48 = 720
Your answer should be: Positive because the products (–5)(–3) and (–8)(–6) are positive, and the product of two positive numbers is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:
7? Is seems that the 4 is being added with +2 when it got bigger so I’m thinking the 5 would be the same thing +2 equals 7..that’s what I’m thinking
