Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation has three factors and equals zero
One of the factors must be zero.
Either 3x = 0 which means x = 0
or x - 4 = 0 which means x = 4
or 3x + 5 = 0 which means 3x = -5 so x = -5/3
The answer is C
E cannot be correct in this question as you are asked to “solve” and not just pick a correct option
Given: KL is a tangent to the circle.
LM is another tangent to the circle.
We can use the tangent meeting at an external point theorem.
<em>Theorem</em>: <em>The tangent segments to a circle from an external point are equal.
</em>
Thus, we can say KL = LM, as they lie on a common circle, and are tangents to such circle.
4x - 2 = 3x + 3
4x - 3x = 3 + 2
x = 5
Since LM is 3x + 3, we can substitute the value of x to LM to render:
3(5) + 3 = 18
Thus, LM = KL = 18 units.
