4a-9b=22

substitute b=-2

4a -9(-2) = 22

4a +18 =22

subtract 18 from each side

4a = 4

divide by 4

a =1

Choice C

Answer:

a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4a+18=22

Step 2: Subtract 18 from both sides.

4a+18−18=22−18

4a=4

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

4a /4 = 4 /4

a=1

Using the following equation, find the center and radius of the circle. You must show all work and calculations to receive credi

adoni [48]

Answer:

$r = 4$

The center is:

(2, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following equation

$x^2 - 4x + y^2 + 8y = -4$

The general equation of a circle has the following form

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

Where r is the radius and the point (h, k) is the center of the circle

To transform the given equation in the general equation of a circumference we must use the method of square completions

Step 1

$(x^2 - 4x) + (y^2 + 8y) = -4$

Step 2

Add and subtract $(\frac{b}{2})^2$ For an equation of the form

$ax^2 +bx +c$

$(x^2 - 4x +4)-4 + (y^2 + 8y +16) -16= -4$

Step 3 Factor the expressions within the parentheses

$(x-2)^2-4 + (y+4)^2 -16= -4$

Step 4 Simplify

$(x-2)^2 + (y+4)^2= -4+16+4$

$(x-2)^2 + (y+4)^2= 4^2$

Finally

$r = 4$

The center is:

(2, -4)

Solve the equation. Y/8+4=13

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Y =72

Step-by-step explanation:

Y/8+4=13

Subtract 4 from each side

Y/8+4-4=13-4

Y/8 = 9

Multiply by 8

Y/8*8 = 9*8

Y =72

The volume of the figure is 9ft 15ft 15ft 15ft please help fast PLEASE!

Whitepunk [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulas.

Square: $V = L \times W \times H$

Square Pyramid: $V = \frac13b^2h$

b = base.

Let's work on the square first.

Substitute the Length, Width, and Height of the square into the formula:

$V=15 \times15\times15$

Solve:

$V=15^{3} =3,375$

Let's work on the square pyramid.

Substitute 225 into the formula, and 9 (height):

$V=\frac{1}{3}(15)^2(9)$

Solve:

$V=\frac{1}{3}225(9)$

$V=\frac{1}{3}(2025)$

$V=675$

Add each volume:

$3,375+675=4,050 ft^{3}$

The total volume of the figure is $4,050 ft^{3}$ .

Rewrite this sequence using exponents 1; 10; 100; 1000 ; 10000

11111nata11111 [884]

Exponents are numbers that are compressed. These numbers are simplified by finding a number that when multiplied by itself multiple times will get to the original number.

This sequence can be rewritten as:

10⁻¹; 10¹; 10²; 10³; 10⁴
