Answer:

19 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of the tangent segment = The product of (whole secant segment) (the outside part of the secant segment)

BD²= (BA)(BE)

8² = (4 + x - 7) (4) BA = BE + EB

8² = (x - 3)(4)

64 = 4x - 12

64 + 12 = 4x

76 = 4x

19 = x

jane loves animals. She has an equal number of beetles, birds and spiders as pets. Apart from human legs, there is a total of 27

kherson [118]

Answer:

16.875 spiders

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

$B = Beetles$

$C = Birds$

$S = Spiders$

So, we have:

$B = C = S$ --- equal amounts

$6B + 2C + 8S = 270$ --- the legs

Required

The number of spider

Since she has an equal amount of B, C and S;

The expression can be written as:

$6B + 2C + 8S = 270$

$6S + 2S + 8S = 270$

$16S = 270$

Solve for S

$S = \frac{270}{16}$

$S = 16.875$

<em>The result of the solution does not represent real life situation because it it is not possible to have a fraction number of spider</em>
