Answer:
C) x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
When two segments intersect in a circle like so, the product of the two parts of one segment will be equal to the product of the two parts of the other segment.
So,<em> 3 * 6 = x * 2</em>
Multiply: 18 = x * 2
Divide: x = 9
The distance (d) between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by the formula
d = √ ((X2-X1)2+(Y2-Y1)2)
d = √ (-400--800)2+(300-200)2
d = √ ((400)2+(100)2)
d = √ (160000+10000)
d = √ 170000
The distance between the points is 412.310562561766
The midpoint of two points is given by the formula
Midpoint= ((X1+X2)/2,(Y1+Y2)/2)
Find the x value of the midpoint
Xm=(X1+X2)/2
Xm=(-800+-400)/2=-600
Find the Y value of the midpoint
Ym=(Y1+Y2)/2
Ym=(200+300)/2=250
The midpoint is: (-600,250)
Graphing the two points, midpoint and distance
P1 (-800,200)
P2 (-400,300)
Midpoint (-600,250)
The length of the black line is the distance between the points (412.310562561766)
X = 36/5
Or x = 7.2
21 + x = 6x - 15
21 = 6x - 15 - x
21 = 5x - 15
21 + 15 = 5x
36 = 5x
36/5 = x
