Answer:
x = 7, x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 intersecting chords, then
The product of the parts of one chord is equal to the product of the parts of the other chord.
(1)
27x = 9 × 21 = 189 ( divide both sides by 27 )
x = 7
(2)
12(3x - 5) = 120 ( divide both sides by 12 )
3x - 5 = 10 ( add 5 to both sides )
3x = 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 5
The answer is 13, i got this by using the pythagorean theorem. a^2 + b^2 = c^2. in this case it would be 84^2 + b^2 = 85^2. then that would turn into 7056 + b^2 = 7225, subtract both sides by 7056 to get b^2 = 169, then square 169 to get 13 :)
Answer:
2 and 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 + b = 3
rearrange the equation
3 - 3/4 = b
3/1 - 3/4 = 14/4 - 3/4 = 11/4 = 2 and 1/4
If 7x+3=24, that means x would be 3 so if you take 5-4x then that would be -7.
