The sum of two numbers is 15. four times the smaller number is 60 less than twice the larger number. what is the larger number?

1 answer:

4 0

X = smaller number, y = larger number
x + y = 15.....x = 15 - y
4x = 2y - 60

4(15 - y) = 2y - 60
60 - 4y = 2y - 60
60 + 60 = 2y + 4y
120 = 6y
120/6 = y
20 = y <==== larger number is 20

x + y = 15
x + 20 = 15
x = 15 - 20
x = - 5

$\sqrt{64} = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2$

$\sqrt{64} = 2 \times 2 \times 2$

$\sqrt{64} = 8$

Write an equation of the circle with center (3,-2) and radius 6

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$\displaystyle (x-3)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 36$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write the equation of a circle with a center at (3, -2) and a radius of 6 units.

Recall that the equation of a circle is given by:

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

Where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.

Since our center is at (3, -2), h = 3 and k = -2. r = 6. Substitute:

$\displaystyle (x-(3))^2 +(y-(-2))^2 = (6)^2$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle (x-3)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 36$

In conclusion, the equation of the circle will be:

$\displaystyle (x-3)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 36$
