Answer:

10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since WX is tangent, it is a right angle

VWX is a right triangle, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2

6^2 + 8^2 = VX ^2

36+64 = VX ^2

100 = VX ^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(100) = sqrt(  VX ^2)

10 = VX

Answer:

10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since WX is tangent to the circle V, by definition, WX ⊥ WV.

So, we've established that ΔWXV is a right triangle. This means that we can apply the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that for a triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c:

a² + b² = c²

Here, we have a = WV = 6 and b = WX = 8, so:

a² + b² = c²

6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100

c² = 100

c = √100 = 10

Therefore, VX = 10 cm.

Which steps could be part of the process in algebraically solving the system of equations, y + 5x = x2 + 10 and y = 4x – 10? Sel
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

That would be :

 4x – 10 = x2 – 5x + 10  ( y = 4x - 10 is substitute for y)

 PROOF:        y + 5x = x² + 10

                     (4x - 10) + 5x = x² + 10

                      4x - 10  =  x² -5x + 10

    0 = x2 – 9x + 20  (liked terms are grouped and simplified)

PROOF:      4x - 10  =  x² -5x + 10

                   4x = x² -5x + 10 + 10

                    0  = x² -5x -4x + 20

                    0  = x² - 9x + 20

Solving:

             x² - 9x + 20 = 0 

             x² - 5x - 4x + 20 = 0

             (x - 5) (x - 4)  = 0

          ⇒ x = 4  (as question says) OR x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps
