Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If two secants are drawn from a point outside the circle, then the product of the lengths of one secant and its external segment equals the product of the lengths of the other secant and its external segment

Let us solve the question.

∵ There is a circle in the given figure

∵ There are two secants intersected at a point outside the circle

∵ The length of one of them = 8

∵ The length of its external segment = x

∵ The length of the other secant = 4 + 8 = 12

∵ The length of its external segment = 4

→ By using the rule above

∴ 8 × x = 12 × 4

∴ 8x = 48

→ Divide both sides by 8

∴ x = 6

Choose the equation that represents the graph.

Answer:

Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

From the above question;

The line passes through (-3,0) and (0,3).

Use double point formula;

$( y - y1) = \frac{(y2 - y1)}{(x2 - x1)} (x - x1)$

Keep all values;

$(y - 0) = \frac{(3 - 0)}{(0 - ( - 3))} (x + 3)$

Simplify it;

$y = \frac{3}{3} (x + 3)$

Therefore, y = x+3.

Hope it helps!

Soon after taking an aspirin, a patient has absorbed 320 mg of the drug. after 3 hours, only 40 mg remain. find an exponential m

Anastaziya [24]

The equation will be of the form:
$A(t)= A_{0} e^{rt}$
where A is the amount after t hours, and r is the decay constant.
To find the value of r, we plug the given values into the equation, giving:
$40=320e^{3r}$
Rearranging and taking natural logs of both sides, we get:
$ln\ 0.125=3r$
$r=\frac{ln\ 0.125}{3}=-0.693$
The required model is:
$A=A _{0} e^{-0.693t}$
