Answer:
B. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of segment lengths to the near and far circle intercepts is the same for both secants.
5(5 +(x-1)) = 4(4 +(x+2))
5(x +4) = 4(x +6) . . . . . simplify inside parentheses
5x +20 = 4x +24 . . . eliminate parentheses
x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 20+4x
