Answer:
(b) 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of segment lengths to the near and far intersection with the circle is the same for both secants.
4(4+5) = 3(3+x) . . . . the above statement with numbers filled in
36 = 9 +3x . . . . . . . simplify
12 = 3 +x . . . . . . . . divide by 3
9 = x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3

Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
answer
the number of buses is 3
the number of cars is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
total number of the students=165
total number of the vehicles=9
let x represent the number of cars
let y represent the number of buses
x+y=9...........equation 1
(the number of the cars plus the number of the buses= to the number of vehicles )
5x + 45y=165.......equation 2
(the number of student the car can hold plus the number of student the bus can hold= to the total number of the student in a class)
x+y=9.......eqn 1
5x +45y=165....eqn 2
make x the subject of the formula in eqn 1
x+y=9
x= 9-y
substitute for x= 9-y in eqn 2
5(9-y)+45y=165
45-5y+45y=165
-5y+45y=165-45
40y=120
divide both sides by 40
40y÷40=120÷40
y=3
since y represent number of buses,the numbet of bus is 3
Also,substitute for y=3 in eqn 1
eqn 1 is x+y=9
x+3=9
x=9-3
x=6
therefore,the number of cars is 6.
