X + y = 3
x - y = -5

We can solve using substitution
x + y = 3
subtract x to isolate y
y = 3 - x
substitute it into the second expression
x - y = -5
x - 3 + x = -5
combine like terms
2x - 3 = -5
add 3 to both sides
2x = -2
divide both sides by 2
x = -1

now to find y

x + y = 3
-1 + y = 3
add 1 to both sides
y = 4

Which equation represents a circle whose center is located at (- 6, 2) and whose radius is sqrt(10) units?
azamat

Answer:

{(x  + 6)}^{2}  +  {(y - 2)}^{2}=10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle with center (a,b) and radius r, is

{(x - a)}^{2}  +  {(y - b)}^{2}  =  {r}^{2}

From the question, the center of the circle is located at (-6,2) and the radius is

r =  \sqrt{10}

We substitute the center and radius to get:

{(x -  - 6)}^{2}  +  {(y - 2)}^{2}  =  {( \sqrt{10} })^{2}

Simplify to obtain:

{(x  + 6)}^{2}  +  {(y - 2)}^{2}=10

xeze [42]

Answer:

9 fruit baskets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Steve sold 36 fruit baskets for a school fundraiser.

Evie sold 25% of the number of baskets that Steve sold.

<u>Question asked:</u>

How many fruit baskets did Evie sell?

Solution:

<u>As given that Evie sold 25% of the number of baskets that Steve sold.</u>

Number of baskets sold by Evie = 25% of 36

                                                      =\frac{25}{100}\times36\\\\  =\frac{900}{100}\\ \\=9

Thus, 9 fruit baskets sold by Evie.

So you’d add 5 and 3 so it’s 8 ft/s

You then divide 220/8

So it should be 27.5 seconds.

Sorry about that other guy. Hope this helps!
