Philip and his good buddy Leroy are both mechanics at a shop that does oil changes. They are in a friendly competition to see who can complete the most oil changes in one day. Philip has already finished 3 oil changes today, and can complete more at a rate of 1 oil change per hour. Leroy just came on shift, and can finish 2 oil changes every hour. Sometime during the day, the friends will be tied, with the same number of oil changes completed. How many oil changes will Philip and Leroy each have done? How long will that take?

Intersecting secant-tangent theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.so to break it down: 1. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p.sr = 21rp = 3x + 3pq = 4x + 4following to equation: tangent squared = the two segments multiplied by each otherso (4x + 4) ^ 2 = (3x + 3) • (21) simplifies to 16x^2 - 31x - 47 = 0 or (16x - 47)(x + 1) x = -1 or x = 47/162. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p (again! )sr = 16rp = xpq = 15(15) ^ 2 = 16 • x225 = 16xx = 225/163. the interesting chords are proportional to each other so a ratio is possible to set up: ap dp 10 3 + x = = —— = pc pb 8 xcross multiple to get 10x = (3 + x)(8)x = 12
