Answer:
<span>the speed of the car after it is increased by 20%
</span>
Explanation:
We are given that the speed of the car is y miles per hour.
Now, 1.2y can be expressed as follows:
1.2y = y + 0.2 y
which is equivalent to:
1.2y = y + 20%y

Since y is the speed, based on the above, we can infer that the speed of the car increased by 20%

Hope this helps :)

Brian is 2 years older than Malachy. Caroline is 8 years younger than Malachy. If the total of their ages is 66, how old is the
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The eldest of them is Brian and he is 24 + 2 = 26 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Malachy age = a

Brian age = a + 2

Caroline age = a - 8

Total of their age = a + (a + 2) + (a - 8)

66 = a + (a + 2) + (a - 8)

collect like terms

66 = a + a + 2 + a - 8

66 = a + a + a - 6

3a = 66 + 6

3a = 72

divide both sides by 3

a = 72/3

a = 24

Malachy age is 24 . Caroline is 24 - 8 = 16 years old.

The eldest of them is Brian and he is 24 + 2 = 26 years old.

Answer:

(x+1)^2+(y-7)^2=8

Step-by-step explanation:

You should try the next one and I can check work or tell you if it is right.  

The diameter length can be found be computing the distance that (-3,5) is to (1,9) which is sqrt(4^2+4^2)=sqrt(32).

The radius is half the diameter so it is sqrt(32)/2.

The center of the circle is the midpoint of a diameter. So compute the (Average of x, average of y)=(-1,7)

So plug into (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 we get

(x+1)^2+(y-7)^2=32/4

simplifying gives

(x+1)^2+(y-7)^2=8

(I had to type this twice; my cat jump on my keyboard)
