Answer:

y = 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle.

Then the product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant, that is

6(6 + y) = 5(5 + 16)

36 + 6y = 5 × 21 = 105 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

6y = 69 ( divide both parts by 6 )

y = 11.5

Talja [164]

$\dfrac{2+6i}{2-4i}\\\\\\=\dfrac{2(1+3i)}{2(1-2i)}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1+3i}{1-2i}\\\\\\=\dfrac{(1+3i)(1+2i)}{(1-2i)(1+2i)}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1+2i+3i+6i^2}{1-(2i)^2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1+5i-6}{1+4}~~~~;[i^2=-1]\\\\\\=\dfrac{5i-5}{5}\\\\\\=\dfrac{5(i-1)}5\\\\=i-1\\\\=-1+i\\\\\text{It is in a form of a +bi so,}~ a = -1~ \text{and}~ b = 1$

Answer this question

Lerok [7]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5 = 2x + 5

Both triangles equal 25

Subtract 2x → You get left with x

x -5 = 5

Add five... which leaves you with↓

x = 10

Then substitute x for 10

(3 · 10) - 5

(2 · 10) + 5

You know this is true because they equal each other.

I hope this could help!!
