Step-by-step explanation:
secants originating from the same point have the same relative length relationship :
outside part × sum of outside and inside parts
is the same for every secant from the same point.
so,
5×(7+5) = 6×(2x-8+6) = 12x - 12
60 = 12x - 12
12x = 72
x = 6
WV = 2x - 8 = 2×6 - 8 = 12 - 8 = 4
so, B is correct.
Ms. Pacheco = P
Mr. Richards = R
Mr. Edwards = E
P = R + 3
E = 2R
R + E = 81
81 = R + 2R
81 = 3R
81 ÷ 3 = R
R = 27
P = R + 3
P = 27 + 3
P = 30
E = 2R
E = 2×27
E = 54

Answer:
When 6x - 4 = 8, x = 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
6x - 4 = 8
Add 4 to both sides.
6x = 12
Divide both sides by 6.
x = 2
Proof:
6x - 4 = 8
Substitute variable.
6(2) - 4 = 8
Multiply 6 and 2.
12 - 4 = 8
Subtract 4 from 12.
8 = 8
