-4 < 4(6y - 12) - 2y
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
-4 < 24y - 48 - 2y
<em><u>Combine like terms.</u></em>
-4 < 22y - 48
<em><u>Add 48 to both sides.</u></em>
44 < 22y
<em><u>Divide both sides by 22.</u></em>
2 < y
The value of y is greater than the value of 2.
My answer is C, I don’t think I’m going to need Brainly that much since we won’t have school work but I’ll use it to help others.
The correct answer is: [D]: "17" .

The formula/equation for the graph of a circle is:
______________________________________________________
(x − h)² +<span> </span> (y − k)² = r² ;
in which:
" (h, k) " ; are the coordinate of the point of the center of the circle;
"r" is the length of the "radius" ; for which we want to determine;
_______________________________________________________
We are given the following equation of the graph of a particular circle:
_______________________________________________________
→ (x − 4)² + (y + 12)² = 17² ;
which is in the correct form:
→ " (x − h)² + (y − k)² = r² " ;
in which: " h = 4 " ;
" k = -12" ;
"r = 17 " ; which is the "radius" ; which is our answer.
→ { Note that: "k = NEGATIVE 12" } ;
→ Since the equation <u>for this particular circle</u> contains the expression: _________________________________________________________
→ "...(y + k)² ..." ;
[as opposed to the standard form: "...(y − k)² ..." ] ;
_________________________________________________________
→ And since the coordinates of the center of a circle are represented by:
" (h, k) " ;
→ which are: " (4, -12) " ; (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ;
_________________________________________________________
→ And since: " k = -12 " ; (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ;
_________________________________________________________
then:
" [y − k ] ² = [ y − (k) ] ² = " [ y − (-12) ] ² " ;
= " ( y + 12)² " ;
{NOTE: Since: "subtracting a negative" is the same as "adding a positive" ;
→ So; " [ y − (-12 ] " = " [ y + (⁺ 12) ] " = " (y + 12) "
___________________________________________________
Note: The above explanation is relevant to confirm that the equation is, in fact, in "proper form"; to ensure that the: radius, "r" ; is: "17" .
___________________________________________________
→ Since: "r = 17 " ;
→ The radius is: " 17 " ;
which is: Answer choice: [D]: "17" .
