Answer:
c= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of distances from the intersection of secants to the near and far intersections with the circle are the same. For a tangent, the near and far points of intersection with the circle are the same. This relation tells us ...
(2√3)(2√3) = x(x +4)
12 = x² +4x
16 = x² +4x +4 . . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient to complete the square
4² = (x +2)² . . . . . . . . write as squares
4 = x +2 . . . . . . . . . . positive square root
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

<em>Alternate solution</em>
If you believe x to be an integer, you can look for factors of 12 that differ by 4.
12 = 1×12 = 2×6 = 3×4
The factors 2 and 6 differ by 4, so x=2 and x+4=6.
D=12
Because if you write down the equation 4x-8=40 and plug in 12. 4 times 12 is 48
. 48-8 equals 40
Y > x
y = 2(3+x)
y = 3x-2
------------------------------
2(3+x) = 3x-2
2(3+x) - (3x-2) = 0
6 + 2x -3x + 2 = 0
8 -x = 0
x = 8
---------------------------
y = 2(3+x) = 2(3+8) = 22
y = 3x-2 = 3*8 -2 = 22
----------------------------------
x = 8 ; y = 22
For the mean you add them all up and divide by the ammount of numbers you added. So it would be 118
