What is a radius of a circle given by the equation x²-2x+8y-47=0
Zolol [24]
First, we are going to rewrite it as a parabola equation.
Rewrite.
8y=-x^2+2x+47
Divide by 8.
y=-\frac{x^2}{8}+\frac{x}{4}+\frac{47}{8}
Factor out coefficient.
y=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x^2-2x\right)+\frac{47}{8}
Then, we are going to convert x into square form.
y=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x^2-2x+1\right)+\frac{1}{8}\cdot \:1+\frac{47}{8}
Convert the whole expression into square form.
y=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x-1\right)^2+\frac{1}{8}\cdot \:1+\frac{47}{8}
Simplify.
y=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x-1\right)^2+6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
y-6=-\frac{1}{8}\left(x-1\right)^2
Divide by coefficient.
-8\left(y-6\right)=\left(x-1\right)^2
Rewrite in standard form.
4\left(-2\right)\left(y-6\right)=\left(x-1\right)^2

The radius of the circle will be -2. Also, no matter what the sign says, the radius has to always be positive. 
Have a nice day! :)

Jimmy collects nickels and dimes. Right now, he has a total of 40 coins in his piggy bank. If there are seven times as many dime
Colt1911 [192]
Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40

then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n

we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40

then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40

then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5

therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels
