12000 = 2x - 1500
12000 + 1500 = 2x
13500 = 2x
13500/2 = x
6750 = x <=== original price

Answer:

Original price of the boat will be $6750

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of a classical speedboat is = $12000

Let the original price of this boat = $x

As per statement given

"Selling price of the boat is $1500 less than twice of its original price"

Selling price of the boat = $(2x - 1500)

OR, $12000 = $(2x - 1500)

12000 + 1500 = 2x

2x = 13500

x = \frac{13500}{2}

  = 6750

Therefore, original price of the speedboat will be $6750.

Paul [167]

Answer:

(x+1)^{2} -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x=x^{2} -6 \\x^{2} +2x-6\\(\frac{b}{2}) ^{2} =(\frac{2}{2}) ^{2} =1^{2} =1\\so, (x^{2} +2x+1)-6+1\\ x^{2} +2x+1=(x+1)^{2} \\-6+1=5\\(x+1)^{2} -5

If (x - h) = 4 and (y - k) = 3, what is the radius of the circle above?
I am Lyosha [343]
(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r² is the equation of a circle with radius of r


so if x-h=4 and y-k=3 then

4²+3²=r²
16+9=r²
25=r²
sqrt both sides
5=r
radius is 5 units
