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.
Answer:
14 sq inches
Step-by-step explanation:
you have the top and bottom = 2
then 3 * 4 for the sides, front, and back = 12
add them together and you have 14
thats for the parts you can see on the outside. i hope i did this right
Answer:
1/6*6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
pythagoras theorem = a* + b* = c* ( by '*' i mean squared)
2* + b* = square root twenty
4 + b* = 20
b* = 16
b = 4
Price of a Cake
10.5/3= 3.5
1 Cake = $3 and 5 cents, 3.5
Price of a cookie
3.5*4=14
14 out of 14.80 was the cost of 4 cakes
Which leaves us with 0.8
8/0.8= 0.1
The Price of 1 cookie is 0.1
1 Cake: 3.5
1 Cookie: 0.1
