Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of the length of the tangent segment is equal to the product of near and far distances to the circle from the point of intersection of the secant and tangent:

(8 cm)^2 = (4 cm)(4 cm +x)

16 cm = 4 cm +x . . . . . . divide by 4 cm

12 cm = x . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4 cm

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

10 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Our original ratio was 2:1 and now it's x:5, assuming x is the number of children enrolled. We multiply 1 by 5 to get to 5, so we need to multiply 2 by 5 to get the total number of chlidren.

2 × 5 = 10
