Help with segment relationships in circles...picture attatched.

x=23

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

The relationship between chords can be found below in the image.

Pretty much the product of the segments in the same chord is equal to the product of the other segments in the other chord if that makes sense

So more specifically for this problem

10 * 18 = 9(x-3)

once we are able to create a formula/equation this problem is a lot easier to understand

Now we use basic algebra to solve for x

10 * 18 = 9(x-3)

step 1 combine like terms

10 * 18 = 180

now we have

180 = 9(x-3)

step 2 distribute the 9 to what's in the parenthesis (x and -3)

9*x=9x

9*-3=-27

now we have

180 = 9x - 27

step 3 add 27 to each side

-27 + 27 cancels out

180 + 27 = 207

now we have

207 = 9x

step 4 divide each side by 9

207/9 = 23

9x/9=x

we're left with x = 23

Now we want to check our answer

is 10 * 18 = 9*(23-3) then our answer is correct

10*18=180

23-3=20

20*9=180

180=180 is true hence the answer is 23
