Answer:

DF = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Andrew was wrong in the assumption that DE = EF

Segments of tangents to a circle from the same external point are congruent

That is

EF = FG = 8

Then

DF = DE + EF = 6 + 8 = 14

Which equation is the direct variation equation if f(x) varies directly with x and f(x)=-18 when x=3

Otrada [13]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{direct proportional variation}\\\\
\textit{\underline{y} varies directly with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=kx\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
k=constant\ of\\
\qquad variation
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{we also know that }
\begin{cases}
y=-18\\
x=3
\end{cases}\implies -18=k3
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-18}{3}=k\implies -6=k\qquad therefore\qquad \boxed{\stackrel{f(x)}{y}=-6x}$
