All you will have to do is put this inside of a graph and then see if it goes through the origin.
To solve this problem you must apply a theorem called: Intersecting secant theorem. The proccedure is shown below:
1) For the figure shown on the left:
(5)(x+5)=(6)(4+6)
5x+25=60
5x=60-25
x=35/5
x=7
2) For the figure shown on the right:
(3)(3+5)=(4)(x+4)
24=4x+16
24-16=4x
8=4x
8/4=x
x=2
Answer:
0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
John gave Fred $48
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x be the amount of dollars John gave fred
y1 be the amount of dollars Fred has at the end
y2 be the amount of dollars John has at the end
Fred has
y1 = - $12 + x
John has
y2 = $84 - x
y1 = y2
- $12 + x = $84 - x
2*x = $96
x = $48
