3a-2 is equivalent to (3a)-2
Hope my answer helped:)
It is hard to explain without a picture. You have the line graph and depending on what your numbers are, you place them where the teacher, (or paper) says too. You would then move two to the right, and one up. You would keep repeating that pattern until you got to the top of the graph. After that you would draw a strait line through it. If you are dealing with negative numbers, then depending on which one is negative, you would move two to the LEFT from the starting point and go one up. You repeat that pattern as well, then once you reach the top of the page you draw a line through it.
I hope this helped!

Circle A -- center(2, 0), radius 8 Circle A' -- center(-1, 5), radius 3
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
If it hasn't started X would be 0 so it be 35+45(0) that would give you 35.
If the co-vertices are (0, 3) and (0, -3) where x is 0 and y has a value, then y is the minor axis. That means that the x axis is the major axis. Because of what the co-vertices are, the center of the ellipse is at the origin. The formula for an ellipse that has a horizontal major axis is

. The a value will always be larger than the b value, therefore, the a value goes under the coordinate that is the major axis. Here, its the x-axis. a is the distance that the outer edge of the ellipse is from the center. It's 8 units away from the center along the x axis and 3 units along the y axis from the center. So a = 8 and a^2 = 64; b = 3 and b^2 = 9. Our formula then is
