See the picture attached to better understand the problem
we know that
If two secant segments are drawn to a <span>circle </span><span>from an exterior point, then the product of the measures of one secant segment and its external secant segment is equal to the product of the measures of the other secant segment and its external secant segment.
</span>so
jl*jk=jn*jm------> jn=jl*jk/jm
we have
<span>jk=8,lk=4 and jm=6
</span>jl=8+4----> 12
jn=jl*jk/jm-----> jn=12*8/6----> jn=16
the answer isjn=16
Answer:
option 4
Step-by-step explanation:
|a| represents Absolute value, it is the distance from zero that a number is on the number line. And we know distance cannot be negative.
So,


This is NOT an arithmetic sequence because there is no common difference. It is a geometric sequence because there is a common ratio. Meaning that each term is a constant ratio or multiple of the previous term. The recursive rule for this geometric sequence is:
a(n)=3*a(n-1), a(1)=3
First you need to see that this is a quadratic. I need.to put all of the values on one side of equation to see what I got.
6r^2 + 7r + 8 = 6
6r^2 + 7r + 2 = 0
Now this one is difficult to factor so i will use quadratic equation:
[-b (+-) sqrt (b^2 - 4ac)] / (2a)
we know that a b and c are in a quadratic at these positions.
ax^2 + bx + c
so
[-7 (+-) sqrt (7^2 -(4)(6)(2)] / (2) (6)
[-7 (+-) sqrt (49 - 48)] / 12
[-7 (+-) 1] /12
split into the + and - for 2 answers
(-7 + 1) / 12
-6/12
-1/2
And
(-7 -1) /12
-8 / 12
-2/3
those are.the 2 answers
But but it says largest so -1/2
