Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

As MK and ML are tangent to the circle, they are also congruent (MK = ML). Thus we can set the equation:

6x-15 = 2x+9

Now solve for x:

6x-2x = 9+15

4x=24

x=6

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

MK and ML are tangents to a circle and " originating from the same point" so

MK=ML

Since MK = 6x-15 and ML = 2x+9

So,

6x-15 = 2x+9

6x-2x = 9+15

4x = 24

Dividing both sides by 4

So, we'll get

x = 6
