Answer:
If that's the whole question then what exactly are we trying to solve here?
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You must calculate the perimeter of the circle:
The radius of the circle in inches is:


2. Now, you must divide the perimeter by the space between each flower to find the number of flowers needed, which you can call
:

The answer is: 126 flowers.
I will explain you and pair two of the equations as an example to you. Then, you must pair the others.
1) Two circles are concentric if they have the same center and different radii.
2) The equation of a circle with center xc, yc, and radius r is:
(x - xc)^2 + (y - yc)^2 = r^2.
So, if you have that equation you can inmediately tell the coordinates of the center and the radius of the circle.
3) You can transform the equations given in your picture to the form (x -xc)^2 + (y -yc)^2 = r2 by completing squares.
Example:
Equation: 3x^2 + 3y^2 + 12x - 6y - 21 = 0
rearrange: 3x^2 + 12x + 3y^2 - 6y = 21
extract common factor 3: 3 (x^2 + 4x) + 3(y^2 -2y) = 3*7
=> (x^2 + 4x) + (y^2 - 2y) = 7
complete squares: (x + 2)^2 - 4 + (y - 1)^2 - 1 = 7
=> (x + 2)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 12 => center = (-2,1), r = √12.
equation: 4x^2 + 4y^2 + 16x - 8y - 308 = 0
rearrange: 4x^2 + 16x + 4y^2 - 8y = 308
common factor 4: 4 (x^2 + 4x) + 4(y^2 -8y) = 4*77
=> (x^2 + 4x) + (y^2 - 2y) = 77
complete squares: (x + 2)^2 - 4 + (y - 1)^2 - 1 = 77
=> (x + 2)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 82 => center = (-2,1), r = √82
Therefore, you conclude that these two circumferences have the same center and differet r, so they are concentric.
Q18)
7/0.75 = 28/3
28/3(45) = 420 -> 420/60 = 7
Therefore the answer is B. 7 minutes.
Q20)
60.90/5 = 12.18
12.18(7) = 85.26
85.26+14.99 = 100.25
Therefore the answer is D. $100.25.
