If a=8 and b=5 and x=4 and y=6m -2 what is the value of m ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serga [27]3 years ago

Answer:

m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x = 4

y = 6m - 2

a = 8

b = 5

Required:

Value of m

SOLUTION:

x and y are segments of a chord divided when it intersects another chord that also has segments a and b.

According to the Intersecting chords theorem, a*b = x*y

Thus:

8*5 = 4*(6m - 2)

Solve for m

40 = 24m - 8

40 + 8 = 24m - 8 + 8

48 = 24m

\frac{48}{24} = \frac{24m}{24}

2 = m

The value of m = 2
