The number is 4/5 or 0.8.

let x be the number.

12 - 2x = 8x + 4

-12 -8x   -8x   -4

-10x = -8

-10x\-10 = -8/-10

x = 4/5 or 0.8

Pls help, easy geometry question
Lemur [1.5K]

x^2 + y^2 + 2x - 6y + 1 = 0

x^2 +2x + 1 + y^2 - 6y = 0

x^2 + 2( x × 1) + 1^2 + y^2 - 2(y×3) + 3^2 -3^2 =0

(x+1)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 3^2

comparing with circle equation

(x-a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

where (a , b) is centre of circle.

so we get center of circle is

(-1, 3)
