The choices are missing, but we can solve the problem from the given information

Answer:

The equation which represents the circle is (x - 2)² + (y + 1)² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation of a circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where

  • (h , k) are the coordinates of its center
  • r is the radius of it

∵ The coordinates of the center of the circle are (2 , -1)

∴ h = 2 and k = -1

The radius of the circle is the segment whose join the center of the circle and any point on the edge of the circle

∵ The circle passes through point (-2 , -1)

∴ The radius of the circle is the distance from the center (2 , -1)

    and the point (-2 , -1)

The y-coordinates of the two points are equal that means the radius is a horizontal segment and its length is the difference between their x-coordinates

∵ r = 2 - (-2)

∴ r = 4

Now let us substitute h, k, and r in the form of the equation of the circle

∵ (x - 2)² + (y - -1)² = (4)²

∴ (x - 2)² + (y + 1)² = 16

The equation which represents the circle is  (x - 2)² + (y + 1)² = 16

You have been averaging 55 sales per day. Per our new policy, everyone needs to increase his or her sales per day by 10% in the
Mariulka [41]
To find your new number of sales per month, you will need to find the number of sales you have per month (based on 30 days per month).  

55 x 20 = 1650 sales.

Than, you will need to calculate what 10% of this is and add it to your original sales number.

0.1 (10%) x 1650 = 165

1650 + 165 = 1815

You will need approximately 1815 sales based on the 30 day month.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{2} x + 3 =  - 1 \\  \frac{x}{3}  + 3 =  - 1 \\  \frac{x}{3}  =  - 1 - 3 \\  \frac{x}{3}  =  - 4 \\ x =  - 4 \times 3 \\ x =  - 12
