Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
This triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle.
By using the image I posted, we can find x easily.
So, we have
as one of the sides.
They hypotenuse, which is x is just 
Simplify and we get x = 
Find minutes per mile by dividing time by distance:
45 minutes / 6 miles = 7.5 minutes per mile
Now multiply his speed by each distance:
7.5 x 9 = 67.5 minutes
7.5 x 15 = 112.5 minutes
Now subtract the two:
112.5 - 67.5 = 45 minutes more
4
Is 4/10 which can be simplified to 2/5
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
When a tangent and a secant are drawn from an external point to a circle.
Then the product of the external part of the secant and the entire secant and the square of the measure of the tangent are equal, hence
x(x + 5) = 6²
x² + 5x = 36 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
x² + 5x - 36 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 9)(x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 4
8,2 I it took me a while but yes That’s the answer
