Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Intersecting Chords Theorem: ab = cd

Step 1: Label our variables

<em>a</em> = x

<em>b</em> = x - 11

<em>c</em> = x - 8

<em>d</em> = x - 5

Step 2: Plug into theorem

x(x - 11) = (x - 5)(x - 8)

Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>

x² - 11x = x² - 8x - 5x + 40

x² - 11x = x² - 13x + 40

-11x = -13x + 40

2x = 40

x = 20

Answer: x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

ab=cd

x(x - 11) = (x - 5)(x - 8)

x^2 - 11x = x^2 - 13x + 40

x^2 - 11x = x^2 - 8x - 5x + 40

-11x = -13x + 40\\2x = 40\\x = 20

-\frac{8}{3} m = 6

-8m = 6(3)

-8m = 18

m = \frac{18}{-8}

m = -\frac{9}{4}

m = -2\frac{1}{4}

0.8x = 19

x = 19/0.8

x = 23.75

8)

0.12x = 1

x = 1/0.12

x =\frac{25}{3}

x = 8\frac{1}{3}

5)

1.

3/4 x = 60

x = (60*4)/3

x = 80

2.

2/5 x =42

x = (42*5)/2

x =105

3.

3/5 y = 40

y = (40*5)/3

y = \frac{200}{3}

y = 66\frac{2}{3}

-\frac{8}{3}m =6

m = \frac{6*3}{-8}

m = -\frac{9}{4}

m = -2\frac{1}{4}

\frac{5}{6} x =4

x = \frac{4*6}{5}

x =4.8
