Answer:

x = 8.


Explanation:

The external secent line theorem says,
S1E1 = S2E2.

Secent s1 and s2.
External E1 and E2.

E2 = 12.
S2 = 32

S1 = 8 + x.
E1 = 8.

12*32 = 8(8+x).
384 = 8(8+x).
48 = 8+x
x = 40.

Answer:

x = 40

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

8(8 + x) = 12(12 + 20)

8(8 + x) = 12 × 32 = 384 ( divide both sides by 8 )

8 + x = 48 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

x = 40

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Using a system of equations, it is found that the third graph shows a pair of lines that represent the equations with a solution (−5, 2).

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

The solution of the system on a graph is the intersection of two lines. The third graph has an intersection at (-5,2), hence it is the answer to this question.
