Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Factory A proportion:

3 : 2,000

Factory B proportion:

5 : 4,500 (this can be simplified):

1 : 900

Now plug in 18,000 to each proportion:

Factory A:

x : 18,000

3 : 2,000

x = 27

Factory B:

x : 18,000

1 : 900

x = 20

Factory A had the greater amount of defects, 27

Determine the equation of the circle with radius 99 and center (-1,-8)(−1,−8).
kumpel [21]
<h2>Equations of Circles</h2>

Generally, you'd see the equation of a circle organized in the following format:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

  • (h,k) is the center
  • r is the radius

To determine the equation given the center and the radius:

  1. Plug both pieces of information into the general equation
  2. Simplify

<h2>Solving the Question</h2>

We're given:

  • Radius: 99
  • Center: (-1,-8)

Plug the radius and center into the equation as r and (h,k):

(x-(-1))^2+(y-(-8))^2=99^2\\(x+1)^2+(y+8)^2=9801

<h2>Answer</h2>

(x+1)^2+(y+8)^2=9801

(X to the fourth power) squared equals
Viktor [21]

Answer:

(x^4)^2=x^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the power of a power property, which states that (x^n)^m=x^{n\times{m}}, where m and n are real numbers, the expression you mentioned can be simplified by applying this property like this: (x^4)^2=x^{4\times2}=x^8

David's total income is ($8/hr)x + ($11/hr)y.

This problem requires us to write and solve an inequality:

8x + 11(15)<$200

Solving for x:     8x < $200-$165, or 8x < $35.  Strictly speaking, x = 4.375 hrs, but if we assume that David must work an integer # of hours, then x=5 full hours.
