Solve For X (see picture below) thank you!

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

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

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

Jennifer is twice as old as laurel, who is 4 years younger than nana. If nana is two years younger than Jennifer what is nana’s
shutvik [7]

Nana's age: 10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we call:

J = Jennifer's age

L = Laurel's age

N = Nana's age

We have the following information:

- Jennifer is twice as old as laurel, so

J = 2L (1)

- Laurel is 4 years younger than Nana, so

L = N - 4 (2)

- Nana is 2 years younger than Jennifer, so

N = J -2 (3)

Substituting (2) into (1),

J = 2(N-4) = 2N - 8

And substituting this into (3) and solving for J, we find Nana's age:

N = (2N-8) - 2

N = 2N - 10

N = 10

Which means that Jennifer's age is:

J =  N + 2 = 12

And Laurel's age is

L = J/2 = 6
