Solve for X ...........

Mathematics
1 answer:
musickatia [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle, then

The product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant, that is

2(2 + x) = 6(6 + 10)

2(2 + x) = 6 × 16 = 96 ( divide both sides by 2 )

2 + x = 48 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = 46

Determine the nature of the roots:
malfutka [58]

Answer:

A.  2 distinct roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 + 8x + 3 = 0

Finding the discriminant:

b^2 - 4ac = 8^2 - 4 * 2 * 3

=  64 - 24

= 40

The discriminant is positive but not a perfect square

So there are 2 distinct ,real, irrational roots.

What is 9a - 3 (2a - 4) = 15
faltersainse [42]
<span>9a + -3(2a + -4) = 15 Reorder the terms: 9a + -3(-4 + 2a) = 15 9a + (-4 * -3 + 2a * -3) = 15 9a + (12 + -6a) = 15 Reorder the terms: 12 + 9a + -6a = 15 Combine like terms: 9a + -6a = 3a 12 + 3a = 15 Solving 12 + 3a = 15 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-12' to each side of the equation. 12 + -12 + 3a = 15 + -12 Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0 0 + 3a = 15 + -12 3a = 15 + -12 Combine like terms: 15 + -12 = 3 3a = 3 Divide each side by '3'. a = 1 Simplifying a = 1</span>
