Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

When a tangent and a secant are drawn from an external point to a circle.

Then the product of the external part of the secant and the entire secant and the square of the measure of the tangent are equal, hence

x(x + 5) = 6²

x² + 5x = 36 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

x² + 5x - 36 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 9)(x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 4

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:  Holly would take 60 minutes to clean alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = Time taken by Holly to clean alone.

Given: Time taken by Mia to clean alone = 30 minutes

Time taken by Mia and holly to clean their room = 20 minutes

Then,

\dfrac1t+\dfrac{1}{30}=\dfrac{1}{20}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{30}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3-2}{60}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{60}\\\\\Rightarrow\ t= 60

Hence, Holly would take 60 minutes to clean alone.

Answer:

sin -1 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

sin (A - B) = sin A cos B - cos A sin B

Therefore  sin 9° cos 10°- cos 9º sin 10° = sin (9 - 10)

= sin -1 degrees.
