So you just plug in the X value of the number that d represents for example if I plug in 2 for d
7(2)^2+10=38
Answer:
d. 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of lengths to the near and far intersection points is the same for both secants:
PB×PA = PD×PC
We can use this relation to solve for x, then use the value of x to find PD.
7×12 = (3x)(7x)
4 = x² . . . . . . . . . divide by 21
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
__
PD = 3x = 3·2
PD = 6
If you want to find out what that number is, then let's call it n
n + 3n (Three times the number) + 12 = 32
Simplify
4n + 12 = 32
Subtract 12 from each side
4n = 20
Divide each side by 4
n = 5
It's easy if you just break it into pieces...
