Answer:

4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

BD and AC are chords that intersect at point Y. A circle is shown. Chords B D and A C intersect at point Y. The length of B Y is 3, the length of Y D is 8, the length of A Y is x, and the length of Y C is 6. What is the length of line segment AY?

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

The Intersecting Chord Theorem states that: When two chords intersect each other inside a circle,the products of their segments are equal.

In this problem

substitute the given values

solve for x

therefore

The length of segment AY is 4 units

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture:

The graph is shaded to the right, because everything that is above -2 is allowed, so the shaded region is what is allowed to be true in this inequality.

The line is dotted because the inequality is only using greater than or less than, and not greater than or equal to, or less than or equal to.
