Find the value of x to the nearest hundredth. Assume that segments that appear to be tangent are tangent.

Given:

Given that A and B are circles.

The lines TQ and TS are tangent to the circles A and B.

The length of the tangent TQ is (3x - 8)

The length of the tangent TS is (x + 10)

We need to determine the value of x.

Value of x:

Since, the tangents TQ and TS meet at the common point T, then by two tangents theorem, we have;

Substituting the values, we have;

Simplifying, we get;

Thus, the value of x is 9.

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangent at S = R = Q

3x - 8 = x + 10

2x = 18

x = 9

the answer is d

step-by-step explanation:

y+3=-4(x-2)

y+3=-4x+8

  -3         -3  

y=-4x+5

yes
