<span>(x + 5 1/2) 0.75= 5/8<span>
Convert 0.75 into a fraction
</span></span><span>(x + 5 1/2) 3/4= 5/8
Use distributive property
3/4x + 5 1/2*3/4 = 5/8
Convert 5 1/2 into improper fraction
3/4x + 11/2*3/4 = 5/8
Multiply
3/4x + 33/8 = 5/8
Subtract 33/8 from both sides
3/4x = 5/8 - 33/8
Subtract the numerators but NOT the denominators
3/4x = -28/8
Divide 3/4 on both sides
x = -28/8 divided by 3/4
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction 3/4 to 4/3
x = -28/8 * 4/3
Multiply
Final Answer: x = -112/24 or -4 16/24 or -4 4/6 or -4 2/3 *All answers are equivalent to each other.</span>

1. A circle with center (-5, 2) is tangent to the y-axis. What is the radius of the circle? What is the equation of the circle?
Bess [88]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  The center lies on the vertical line x = -5 and the the circle is tangent to (touches in one place only) the y-axis.  Thus, the radius is 5.

2)  Starting with (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 and comparing this to the given

                     (x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 6^2

we see that h = 4, k = -3 and r = 6.  The center is at (4, -3) and the radius is 6.

3)  Notice that A and B have the same x-coordinate, x = 15.  The center of the circle is thus (15, -2), where that -2 is the halfway point between the two given points in the vertical direction.   Arbitrarily choose A(15, 4) as one point on the circle.  Then the equation of this circle is

(x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = r^2 = 6^2, where the 6 is one half of the vertical distance between A(15, 4) and B(15, -8) (which is 12).

There is a bag with only milk and dark chocolates. The probability of randomly choosing a dark chocolate is 5 12 . There are 40
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

There must be 96 milk chocolates.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you take the original ratio, 5:12, and replace the 5 with 40, you'd discover that 40 divided by 5 is 8. So what do you do? You multiply the 12 by 8 to get 96 so now the ratio is 40:96.
