Answer:

HJ=20\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

RT and GJ are chords that intersect at point H. If RH = 10 units, HT = 16 units, and GH = 8 units, what is the length of line segment HJ? 18 units 20 units 26 units 28 units

we know that

The <u><em>intersecting chords theorem</em></u>  is a statement that describes a relation of the four line segments created by two intersecting chords within a circle. It states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal

so

In this problem

(RH)(HT)=(GH)(HJ)

substitute the given values

(10)(16)=(8)(HJ)

solve for HJ

HJ=160/8\\HJ=20\ units

Answer:

  • (2x + 5)/(x - 9)
  • 3. quantity 2 x plus 5 over x minus 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity 2 x squared plus 13 x plus 20 all over x squared minus 5 x minus 36

  • (2x² + 13x + 20)/(x² -5x - 36) =
  • (2x²+ 5x + 8x + 20)/(x² - 9x + 4x -36)=
  • (2x + 5)(x + 4)/(x - 9)(x + 4) =
  • (2x + 5)/(x - 9)

Correct option is option 3
