Answer is <span>C. 9x-2y=-40
hope that helps
because y = 9/2x +20 then 2y = 9x + 40 so 9x -2y = -40

We know that
the equation of a sphere is
(x-h)²+(y-k)²+(z-l)²=r²
where (h,k,l) is the center and r is the radius
we have
x²+y²+z²<span>−2x−4y+8z+17=0
</span>
Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the
constant to the opposite side of the equation
(x²+2x)+(y²-4y)+(z²+8z)=-17
<span>Complete
the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants
to each side
</span>(x²+2x+1)+(y²-4y+4)+(z²+8z+16)=-17+1+4+16
(x²+2x+1)+(y²-4y+4)+(z²+8z+16)=4
Rewrite as perfect squares
(x+1)²+(y-2²)+(z+4)²=4
(x+1)²+(y-2²)+(z+4)²=2²
the center is the point (-1,2,-4) and the radius is 2 units
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's just call the number x for simplicity.
So, 7x is 8 less than x².
Putting this into an equation would look like this
x² - 8 = 7x
It looks like we'll have to factor this to solve. Before we do that we need to move the 7x to the left side so that everything is together.
x² - 7x -8 = 0
Now, we can proceed. To factor we first need to find the factors of -8.
The factors of -8 are
-2 ⋅ 4, -4 ⋅ 2, -1 ⋅ 8, 1 ⋅ -8.
We need to find the pair of factors that adds up to -7. The only ones that do are -1 and 8.
So now that we have these we can create a pair of binomials using them. This will give us the factored form of this equation.
( x + 1 ) ( x - 8 )
To find the solutions we will have to set them to 0 and solve each of these binomials individually.
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
So, one of the solutions is 1. It's not the one we want, since it's positive.
x - 8 = 0
x = 8
This is the one we want since it is positive.
