The diagram has been inserted below.
There is a circle.
Two chords, BC and DE intersect at a point F inside the circle.
A chord of a circle is a straight line segment whose endpoints both lie on the circle.
To know the chord length, we need to know the radius or central angle or the perpendicular distance to the center.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, we are substituting for x.
Let us take a look at our given answers.
x = -13 and x = -3 would not work because the numbers would not add up to -5. Since we have the positive brackets (or whatever you call them.) surrounding the x variable, that means that all numbers that are plugged into x will be positive.
-13 will be turned into 13,
13 - 8 -5
So that is wrong.
x = 3 and x = 3 would work because plugging it in, all outcomes from the two numbers would be negative.
3 - 8 = -5
- 8 = -5
True.
The third one won't work because of the same reasons as the first one.
Then, the last one would not work well because, there is a solution.
