Answer: the correct option is (B) 8.5.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that AK= 14, EK=17 and BK= 7 in the figure shown.
We are to find the length of DK.
From the figure, we note that
AD and BE are two chords of a circle intersecting at the point K.
We will be using the following theorem :
<u><em>Intersecting Chord Theorem :</em></u> When two chords intersect each other inside a circle, then the products of their segments are equal.
Applying the above theorem in the given circle, we get
Thus, the length of DK is 8.5 units.
Option (B) is CORRECT.

Answer:
I have uploaded a picture so you could understand it a little more.
A linear function is when there is a table that gives numbers that represent a function, as shown in the picture.
In the Image, there is a table with a x and y column. And in both columns, there are numbers.
This is what the table looks like in the picture:
<u> x y </u>
0 4 The key is y = 2x + 4
1 6 <------ lets grab the number 1 in the x column and lets
2 8 multiply it by two. Now add four to it, and we will
3 10 have the number 6 in the y column.
