Given that EF and EG are tangent lines, apply the Tangent Segments Theorem to set up an equation and solve for x.

Simonne used the following steps to simplify the given expression. 12 - 3(-2x + 4) step 1: 12 + (–3)·(–2x) + (–3)·(4) step 2: 12 + 6x + (–12) step 3: 12 + (–12) + 6x step 4: 0 + 6x step 5: 6x what property of real numbers was used to transition from step 3 to step 4? a. identity property of addition b. inverse property of addition c. associative property of addition d. commutative property of addition

Solve the system by the elimination method. x + y - 6 = 0 x - y - 8 = 0 when you eliminate y , what is the resulting equation? 2x = -14 2x = 14 -2x = 14
