The value of x in the secants intersection is 1 units
The value of NM in the tangent and secant intersection is 51 units
<h3>How to find length when secant and tangent intersect?</h3>
The first question, two secant intersect outside the circle.
Therefore,
(6x + 8x)8x = (9 + 7)7
14x(8x) = 16(7)
112x² = 112
x² = 112 / 112
x = √1
x = 1
The second question, tangent and secant intersect,
Therefore,
(x + 3)² = (x - 3)(16 + x - 3)
(x + 3)² = (x - 3)(x + 13)
(x + 3)(x + 3) = (x - 3)(x + 13)
x² + 3x + 3x + 9 = x² + 13x - 3x - 39
x² + 9x + 9 = x² + 10x - 39
x² - x² + 9x - 10x = -39 - 9
-x = - 48
x = 48
NM = 48 + 3 = 51 units

Answer:
6.68, 13.37, 14.95
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the legs is twice as long as the other.
b = 2a
The perimeter is 35.
35 = a + b + c
The triangle is a right triangle.
c² = a² + b²
Three equations, three variables. Start by plugging the first equation into the second and solving for c.
35 = a + 2a + c
c = 35 − 3a
Now plug this and the first equation into the Pythagorean theorem:
(35 − 3a)² = a² + (2a)²
1225 − 210a + 9a² = a² + 4a²
1225 − 210a + 4a² = 0
Solve with quadratic formula:
a = [ -(-210) ± √((-210)² − 4(4)(1225)) ] / 2(4)
a = (210 ± √24500) / 8
a ≈ 6.68 or 45.82
Since the perimeter is 35, a = 6.68. Therefore, the other sides are:
b ≈ 13.37
c ≈ 14.95
3. Credit Card: (1842.66 - 250) (.145/12) = $19.24
Savings: 250(0.04/12) = $0.83
Difference = 19.24 - 0.83 = $18.41
4. Credit Card: (1842.66 - 500) (.145/12) = $16.22
You will save $18.41 - $16.22 = $2.19 by putting all $500 toward the higher credit card rate.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.
To solve this, you have to know the conversion factors.
1 yard = 3 ft = 36 inches
Thus,
48 inches * (1 yard/36 inches) = 1.33 yards
This means that you need to buy at least 2 yards per bolt.
