We must solve

8 -  \frac{7}{10}x = 6 -  \frac{1}{5}x \\ or \\ 80 - 7x = 60 - 2x \\ now \\ 20 = 5x \: so \: x = 4 \\
Means the candles will be the same size in 4 hours

Write the standard equation of a circle with center (0, 3) and radius 7.
lbvjy [14]
Circle equation:
(x - xo)^{2} + (y - yo)^{2} = {r}^{2}

Center (0, 3)
Xo = 0
Yo = 3

Radius: 7
r = 7

So:

(x - 0)^{2} + (y - 3)^{2} = {7}^{2}
{x}^{2} + (y - 3)^{2} = 49

Answer: x^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 49

The intercepts of the circle (x-1)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 10 are ?
IRISSAK [1]

y-intercept:  Let x = 0 and solve for y:

(x-1)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 10 => (-1)^2 + y^2 - 4y + 4) = 10

                                =>  1 + y^2 - 4y + 4 = 10, or   y^2 - 4y  -5 = 0

                                The solutions of this quadratic are y = 5 and y = -1.

                                Thus, the y-intercepts are (0, 5) and (0, -1).

Now find the x-intercepts:  Let y = 0 and solve the resulting equation for x:

(x-1)^2 = 10 - (-2)^2, or (x-1)^2 = 10 - 4 = 6.

Taking the sqrt of both sides, x - 1 = plus or minus sqrt(6), or:

                                                  x = 1 +√6 and x = 1 - √6, so that the x-intercepts

                                                  are (1+√6, 0) and (1-√6, 0).

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

If you are doing subtraction with fractions you need to make a common denominator and subtract the numerators from each other

ex. 1/2 - 1/3

make a common denominator (or find the least common multiple)

3/6 - 2/6

subtract the numerators

take 2 from 3 and put that on top.

Solution 1/2-1/3= 3/6-2/6= 1/6
