Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If two scants are drawn from a point outside the circle then the product of one secant and its external segment is equal to the product of other secant and its external segment.

By applying this property in the picture attached,

OB × OA = OC × OD

(6 + 3)6 = (12 - x)12

54 = 144 - 12x

12x = 144 - 54

12x = 90

x = 7.5

say you are trying to show your parents your grades:

here are your scores:

38, 88, 90, 91, 93, 95, 100

the median would be 91, which looks better.

the mean would be 85.

even though a <em>majority</em> of your grades are good, the one 38 makes the average go down. therefore, the median is a better advertiser.
