Find the measure of KL.​

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

KL = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle, then

The product of the measures of one secants external part and the entire secant is equal to the product of the other secant's external part and the entire secant, that is

MN(MN + NC) = ML(ML + LK), that is

8(8 + 10x) = 9(9 + 7x) ← distribute both sides

64 + 80x = 81 + 63x ( subtract 63x from both sides )

17x + 64 = 81 ( subtract 64 from both sides )

17x = 17 ( divide both sides by 17 )

x = 1

Hence

KL = 7x = 7 × 1 = 7

Angelina_Jolie [31]
Number of students = 9860
Total Population = 62,400

Percentage of students in the population can be calculated by:

(Number of students/Total population) x 100%

Using the values, we get:

Percentage of students = (9860/62400) x 100% = 15.80%

Thus, students constitute 15.80% of the entire population
