Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of distances from the intersection of secants to the near and far intersections with the circle are the same. For a tangent, the near and far points of intersection with the circle are the same. This relation tells us ...
(2√3)(2√3) = x(x +4)
12 = x² +4x
16 = x² +4x +4 . . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient to complete the square
4² = (x +2)² . . . . . . . . write as squares
4 = x +2 . . . . . . . . . . positive square root
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

<em>Alternate solution</em>
If you believe x to be an integer, you can look for factors of 12 that differ by 4.
12 = 1×12 = 2×6 = 3×4
The factors 2 and 6 differ by 4, so x=2 and x+4=6.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 2)(x² + 7x + 4) = x(x² + 7x + 4) - 2*(x² + 7x + 4)
= x*x² + x*7x + 4*x - 2*x² -2* 7x -2* 4
= x³ + 7x² + 4x - 2x² -14x -8
= x³ + <u>7x² - 2x²</u> <u>+ 4x - 14x</u> - 8
= x³ + 5x² - 10x - 8
