Assuming that CB is tangent, this is just a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 20 and a side of 12 so by the Pythagorean Theorem:
20^2=12^2+x^2
400=144+x^2
x^2=400-144
x^2=256
x=16
<u>These 2 equations has </u><u>no solution</u><u> and the equations are </u><u>independent</u><u> </u><u>of each other.</u>
What is liner equation with two variable?
- An equation is said to be linear equation in two variables if it is written in the form of ax + by + c=0, where a, b & c are real numbers and the coefficients of x and y, i.e a and b respectively, are not equal to zero.
- For example, 10x+4y = 3 and -x+5y = 2 are linear equations in two variables.
-10x² -10y² = -300 ----a
5x² + 5y² = 150 ---- b
While trying to solve this,
We can multiply the eq. b by 2 so we will get eq. c and then add to eq. a we will get 0 as the solution.
10x² + 10y² = 300 ----c
-10x² -10y² = -300 ---a
<u>Everything cutoff, we will </u><u>get 0</u><u>, and there is no solution to these equations.</u>

The answer is A, it can't land on a number that doesn't exist.
Answer:
48, since the numbers are next to each other with no sign, they need to be multiplied, and a negative times a negative is a positive
Step-by-step explanation:
