The value of p is -5

Simply use cross multiplication :

The process of multiplying numbers in the shape of a fraction is called cross multiplication. Cross multiplying, also known as cross multiplication, is the process of multiplying the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction on the other side of an equal symbol. Cross multiplication is a method for comparing fractions.

Both fractions with like and unlike parts are multiplied across. When employing the cross-multiplication procedure, we multiply the denominators as well as the numerators when a fraction is dissimilar, or when the denominators of two fractions are not alike.

$14p-8=22+20p\\or, 14p-20p=22+8\\or, -6p=30\\or, p=-\frac{30}{6} \\or, p= -5$

Which of these points lies on the circle with the center (2,3) and radius 2?

yan [13]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Center = (2, 3)

radius = 2

Process

1.- Find the equation of the line

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

-Substitution

(x - 2)² + (y - 3)² = 2²

-Simplification

(x - 2)² + (y - 3)² = 4

-Evaluate the points in the equation

A. (4, 3)

(4 - 2)² + (3 - 3)² = 4

2² + 0 = 4

4 = 4 This point lies in the circle

B (-1, 0)

(-1 - 2)² + (0 - 3)² = 4

-3² + (-3)² = 4

9 + 9 = 4 This point is not part of the circle

C. (1, 3)

(1 - 2)² + (3 - 3)² = 4

(-1)² + (0)² = 4

1 = 4 This point is not part of the circle

D. (3, 4)

(3 - 2)² + (4 - 3)² = 4

1² + 1² = 4

2 = 4 This point is not part of the circle

A two-digit number becomes 5/6 of the reversed number obtained when the digits are interchanged. The difference between the digi

<h3>Answer: 54</h3>

==============================================

Work Shown:

T = tens digit

U = units digit (aka ones digit)

A number like 27 is really 20+7 = 2*10 + 7*1 = 10*2 + 1*7. We have 2 in the tens digit and 7 in the units digit. So 27 can be written in the form 10T + U where T = 2 and U = 7. Reversing the digits gives 72, so T = 7 and U = 2 now. Clearly the difference between the digits 7 and 2 is not 1, so 27 or 72 is not the answer (as it's just an example).

-----------------------

Let T be larger than U. This doesn't work if T = U.

Because T is larger, saying "The difference between the digits is 1" means T - U = 1. We can isolate T to get T = U+1. We'll use this later.

-----------------------

If T > U, then the original number 10T+U reverses to the new number 10U+T and it becomes smaller. We are told that it becomes 5/6 of what it used to be.

So,

new number = (5/6)*(old number)

10U + T = (5/6)(10T + U)

6(10U + T) = 5(10T + U)

60U + 6T = 50T + 5U

60U + 6(U+1) = 50(U+1) + 5U ... plug in T = U+1

60U + 6U + 6 = 50U + 50 + 5U

66U + 6 = 55U + 50

66U - 55U = 50-6

11U = 44

U = 44/11

U = 4 is the units digit of the original number

T = U+1

T = 4+1

T = 5 is the tens digit of the original number

The original number is therefore 10T + U = 10*5+4 = 54.

We see the difference in their digits is T-U = 5-4 = 1

The reverse of 54 is 45. The number 45 is 5/6 of 54

45 = (5/6)*54
