Answer:

EF = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the secant- secant power theorem, that is

GF × GE = GH × GS

4(4 + 2x) = 5(5 + x) ← distribute both sides

16 + 8x = 25 + 5x ( subtract 5x from both sides )

16 + 3x = 25 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

3x = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 3

Then

EF = 2x = 2 × 3 = 6

A container of beads contains: 8 red beads, 6 yellow beads, and 6 green beads. A bead will be drawn from the basket and replaced

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Because of probability, a green or red bead would be drawn 14/20 times because there are 20 total beads and adding together the numbers for green and red. From this, if you multiply by 3/3 you can see that 42/60 times it will be a green bead. A reasonable prediction for green beads would then be 42 times. Hope it helps :D
