One number is 8 more than another number, and their sum is 20. Find the numbers.

melomori [17]

Answer:

First number=6

Second number=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x

So the second number is x+8

So the sum of the two is

X+x+8=20

2x+8=20

2x=20-8

2x=12

X=12/2

The second number will x+8

So 6+8=14

First number=6

Second number=14

In Exercises 10 and 11, points B and D are points of tangency. Find the value(s) of x.<br>

Lemur [1.5K]

In both cases,

$AB^2=AD^2$

(as a consequence of the interesecting secant-tangent theorem)

So we have

10.

$(4x+7)^2=(6x-3)^2$

$16x^2+56x+49=36x^2-36x+9$

$20x^2-92x-40=0$

$5x^2-23x-10=0$

$(5x+2)(x-5)=0\implies\boxed{x=5}$

(omit the negative solution because that would make at least one of AB or AD have negative length)

11.

$(4x^2-18x-10)^2=(x^2+x+4)^2$

$16x^4-144x^3+244x^2+360x+100=x^4+2x^3+9x^2+8x+16$

$15x^4-146x^3+235x^2+352x+84=0$

$(x-7)(3x+2)(5x^2-17x-6)=0\implies\boxed{x=-\dfrac23\text{ or }x=7}$

(again, omit the solutions that would give a negative length for either AB or AD)

Dang it these are tricky for me can somebody help?

erica [24]

Answer:

It has no perfect square factors, unless you count 1 = 1^2. That's sort of a degenerate case we don't usually count, since every integer has that factor. We would usually say that 1290 is a square-free integer. Hope this helps!!
