Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

(j/-2) + 7 = -12

I move the 7 over by subtracting since its a positive 7

j/-2 = -19

now multiply each side by -2 to cancel out the denominator

j = 38

Secant jkl and jmn are drawn to circle o from an external point ,j. if jk=8,lk=4 and jm=6 what is the length of jn answer

Archy [21]

See the picture attached to better understand the problem

we know that
If two secant segments are drawn to a <span>circle </span><span>from an exterior point, then the product of the measures of one secant segment and its external secant segment is equal to the product of the measures of the other secant segment and its external secant segment.
</span>so
jl*jk=jn*jm------> jn=jl*jk/jm

we have
<span>jk=8,lk=4 and jm=6
</span>jl=8+4----> 12

jn=jl*jk/jm-----> jn=12*8/6----> jn=16

the answer is
jn=16

The sides of △FGH are FG = 6 x+ 7, GH = 8x - 5, and FH = 10x - 11. If the perimeter of △FGH is 87, list the angles in order from

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

From largest to smallest: FG, FH, GH

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$FG = 6x + 7$

$GH = 8x - 5$

$FH = 10x - 11$

$Perimeter = 87$

Required

Order the sides in descending order

First, we need to solve for x.

Perimeter of FGH is calculated as thus:

$Perimeter = FG + GH + FH$

Substitute values for FG, GH, FH and Perimeter

$87 = 6x + 7 + 8x - 5 + 10x - 11$

Collect Like Terms

$87 - 7 + 5 + 11= 6x + 8x + 10x$

$96= 24x$

Reorder

$24x = 96$

Divide through by 24

$x = 96/24$

$x = 4$

Substitute 4 for x in FG, GH and FH

$FG = 6x + 7$

$FG = 6 * 4 + 7$

$FG = 24 + 7$

$FG =31$

$GH = 8x - 5$

$GH = 8 * 4 - 5$

$GH = 32 - 5$

$GH = 27$

$FH = 10x - 11$

$FH = 10*4 - 11$

$FH = 40 - 11$

$FH = 29$

In order of arrangement in descending order, we have:

$FG =31$ $FH = 29$ $GH = 27$
