since we know the endpoints of the circle, we know then that distance from one to another is really the diameter, and half of that is its radius.
we can also find the midpoint of those two endpoints and we'll be landing right on the center of the circle.

The correct answer is 3/13. Divided both by 5.
15/65
3/13
Answer:81.31
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4) Given
(4x - 2x) + 8 = 6(x + 4)
2x + 8 = 6(x + 4) Combine like terms
2x + 8 = (6)(x) + (6)(4)
2x + 8 = 6x + 24 Distributive Property
2x - 6x + 8 = 6x - 6x + 24
-4x + 8 = 24 Subtraction Property of Equality
-4x + 8 - 8 = 24 - 8
-4x = 16 Subtraction Property of Equality
-4x : (-4) = 16 : (-4)
x = -4 Division Property of Equality
