Answer:

C. 12(x -5) = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The given verbal statement is "The product of 12 and 5 less than the number x is 45."

Now we have to convert to algebraic equation.

Product means "x"

Less than means "-"

5 less than the number x = x - 5

is means "="

The product of 12 and 5 less than the number x = 12(x - 5)

So, The product of 12 and 5 less than the number x is 45 means

12(x -5) = 45

Therefore, the answer is C. 12(x -5) = 45

5 less than the number x = (x - 5)
Product of 12 and that : 12(x - 5) is = 45. Is is represented by the = sign.

12(x - 5) = 45

Answer:

$(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=6.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a circle is given by:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius.

The center is the red dot, which is (1,2). Thus, h=1 and k=2.

To find the radius, you need to use the distance formula. We are given two coordinates: the center (red dot) at (1,2) and a blue dot on the circle at (2.5,4). Find the radius by using the distance formula:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Let (1,2) be x₁ and y₁ and let (2.5,4) be x₂ and y₂. Therefore:

$d=\sqrt{(2.5-1)^2+(4-2)^2}\\d=\sqrt{(1.5)^2+2^2}\\d=\sqrt{2.25+4}\\d=\sqrt{6.25}=2.5$

Thus, r is 2.5.

Plugging these numbers into the equation, we have:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2\\(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=2.5^2\\(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=6.25$

Micah rows his boat on a river 4.48 miles downstream, with the current, in 0.32 hours. He rows back upstream the same distance,

denpristay [2]

Let the speed of the current be y and the speed of Micah's sailing speed be x. Then 4.48/(x + y) = 0.32
4.48/(x - y) = 0.56

0.32x + 0.32y = 4.48 . . . (1)
0.56x - 0.56y = 4.48 . . . (2)
(1) x 7 => 2.24x + 2.24y = 31.36 . . . (3)
(2) x 4 => 2.24x - 2.24y = 17.92 . . . (4)
(3) - (4) => 4.48y = 13.44
y = 3
From (1), 0.32x + 0.32(3) = 4.48
0.32x = 4.48 - 0.96 = 3.52
x = 3.52/0.32 = 11

Therefore, the speed of the current is 3 miles per hour. Answer is 3 miles per hour
