X^2 - 10x + 8 =0
x^2 - 10 + (-10/2)^2 - (-10/2)^2 + 8 = 0
(x - 5)^2 - 25 + 8 = 0
(x - 5)^2 - 17 = 0
To be honest , this is the final step for this equation. It seems like there is no any suitable answer for this question..
To me , I think the best answer will be the third option.
x - 5 =0
x = 5
2x-10 = 0
2x = 10
x = 5
I guess this answer seems like legit.. So I will choose the third option.
Answer:
Radius, r, is 3.75
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given diagram,
AB = 9
AC = 6 + r
BC = r
Thus applying the Pythagoras theorem, we have;
=
+ 
=
+ 
36 + 12r +
= 81 + 
collecting like terms,
12r = 81 - 36
12r = 45
r = 
= 3.75
r = 3.75
The radius is 3.75.
If you make a proportion,
12 18
--- = ---
10 x
when you cross multiply
12x=180
x=15
EF= 15
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation: 10/2 = 5 + 1 = 6
