we know that tangents in a circle intersecting at point is always equal in length. we have two tangents AB and BC

by theorm AB=BC

5x+11=3x+25

2x=14

x=7. the length of x is 7

If two tangents drawn on a circle from the same external point then the tangents will be equal.

Here AB and BC are the two tangents of the circle drawn from a point B. So,

AB= BC.

Given AB = 5x + 11 and BC = 3x + 25. Hence, we can set up an equation as following:

5x + 11 = 3x + 25

5x + 11 -3x = 3x + 25 -3x By subtracting 3x from each sides.

2x + 11 = 25

2x + 11 - 11 = 25 - 11 By subtracting 11 from both each sides.

2x = 14

\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{14}{2} Dividing each sides by 2.

So, x= 7

Is the following relation a function? *
spayn [35]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well at first glance it might seem so but there are two points particularly that can tell you that these points cannot be within a function.

The points (3,2) and (3,-2) will yield an undefined slope (a straight vertical line). There is no possibility that the other points can be in this line (as their y - values are different) and there is no possibilty that this is a function at all according to the vertical line test (the test is that if you draw a vertical line that there shouldn't be more than one point on it).

The result of adding a complex number to its conjugate is “an integer/a pure imaginary number/a real number/a whole number” and
sineoko [7]

Answer:

If Z is a complex number:

Z = a + b*i

where a and b are real numbers, and i is an imaginary number.

Then "a" is the real part.

"b*i" is the imaginary part.

The conjugate of Z is:

Zc = a - b*i

So the sign of the imaginary part changes.

Then:

Sum:

Z + Zc = (a + bi) + (a - bi) = 2*a + 0 = 2*a

and remember that a is a real number, then 2*a is also a real numer.

The correct answer is "A real number".

Difference:

Z - Zc = (a + bi) - (a - bi) = 2b*i

and this is a pure imaginary number, so here the correct answer is: "a pure imaginary number"
