9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of secant lengths to the two intersection points is the same for both secants.

  (AD)(AE) = (AB)(AC)

  8(8+10) = (x-1)(x-1 +x+11)

  144 = 2x^2 +8x -10

  x^2 +4x -77 = 0

  (x +11)(x -7) = 0

Solutions to this quadratic are x = -11, x = 7. (These values make the factors zero.) Only the positive solution is useful here

  x = 7

A motorist took 1.2 hour to travel 96 km how far will he travel in 1 hour
miskamm [114]

Answer:

80km

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to cross multiply. Lets input the values (1.2, 1.0, 96) as shown below:

\frac{1.2}{96} = \frac{1.0}{x}

Next we cross multiply. We multiply 1.2 and x, and we multiply 96 and 1.0.

1.2(x) = 1.2x

96 x 1.0 = 96

Now, lets put the values above back into the equation:

1.2x = 96

Lets solve this equation. First we divide 96 by 1.2.

1. x = \frac{96}{1.2}

2. x = 80

This means that our answer is 80km.

PIT_PIT [208]
The expression for Wendy's weight would be p-8.

Since Wendy is 8 pounds less than Jean, we take Jean's weight and subtract 8.  If Jean's weight is p, then Wendy's would be p-8.
