Answer:
NO
Step-by-step explanation:
I've already told you, it is closer to 1 than 1.25
Not sure what index form is but
48=2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 3
this is also
48=2^3 times 3
N^2 + n - 120 = 0
Quadratic formula
a = 1, b = 1, c = -120
n = [-1 plus or minus root(1^2 - 4(1)(-120))] / 2(1)
n = (-1 plus or minus root481)/2
n =(approximately) 10.5 or -11.5
The value of x in the secants intersection is 1 units
The value of NM in the tangent and secant intersection is 51 units
<h3>How to find length when secant and tangent intersect?</h3>
The first question, two secant intersect outside the circle.
Therefore,
(6x + 8x)8x = (9 + 7)7
14x(8x) = 16(7)
112x² = 112
x² = 112 / 112
x = √1
x = 1
The second question, tangent and secant intersect,
Therefore,
(x + 3)² = (x - 3)(16 + x - 3)
(x + 3)² = (x - 3)(x + 13)
(x + 3)(x + 3) = (x - 3)(x + 13)
x² + 3x + 3x + 9 = x² + 13x - 3x - 39
x² + 9x + 9 = x² + 10x - 39
x² - x² + 9x - 10x = -39 - 9
-x = - 48
x = 48
NM = 48 + 3 = 51 units
