We know that
15 1/4 acres-----------> (15*4+1)/4-----> 61/4 acres

[<span>number of lots]=(61/4)/(2/3)----> (61*3)/(4*2)---> 183/8----> 22.875
22.785-----> 22 7/8

we know that
7/8--------> multiply by 3-------> 21/24
2/3-------> multiply by 8-------> 16/24
21/24-16/24-------> 5/24
so
22 7/8 is equals to--------> 22 21/24----> 22 (16/24+5/24)

t</span><span>he maximum number of lots that can be created are 22+1-----> 23 lots
</span><span>and there is a remnant of 5/24</span>

Write the equation of a circle given the center (-4, 4) and raduis r = 5.

Len [333]

Answer:

A) $(x+4)^2+(y-4)^2=25$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$ where $(h,k)$ is the center and $r$ is the radius. If $(h,k)\rightarrow(-4,4)$ and $r=5$ , then:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2\\\\(x-(-4))^2+(y-4)^2=5^2\\\\(x+4)^2+(y-4)^2=25$

Therefore, the equation of the circle is $(x+4)^2+(y-4)^2=25$
