9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment lengths of each chord have the same product.

  (x -2)(x +6) = 9×20

  x² +4x -12 = 180

  x² +4x +4 = 196 . . . . . add 16 (complete the square)

  (x +2)² = 14²

  x +2 = 14 . . . . . . . . . . . positive root is the only one useful

  x = 12

Answer:

24a + 16g

Step-by-step explanation:

So the answer is 24a + 16g because you cant add variables together. When you multiply this because it is distibutive property you get that answer.

And also for extra proof,

Once you get the 6 you distributively divide to the power of the 92nd declaring independence for all turds stuck in your stomach.  

[(5-4)+1]*12

[1+1]*12

2*12

24

:D Hope this helps! (for real the first part is true)
