Answer:
x = = 10.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Both problems are done the same way. I will do the first one and you do the second one. OK?
Move the radius x to make a right triangle. The 6 unit segment bisects the chord. So, the legs of the right triangle are 6 and 9

= 10.8
None of the answer choices are to the nearest tenth. So, I am confused about that.
