An algebraic expression is, obviously, an expression with a variable.

"A number" would represent a variable, which, in this case, we'll use y.

So, 15 decreased by twice x.
15 - y x 2 = 

I hope this helped :)

15-2x= that would be the algebraic equation. Remember that decrease usually means minus. A number is always represented by a variable, and then anything that by is usually a multiplication or division depending on how its stated.

Graph the circle (x+6)^2 + (y+5)^2 =9
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

This a circle centered at the point (-6,-5), and of radius "3" as it is shown in the attached image.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the standard formula for a circle of radius "R", and centered at the point (x_0,y_0) is given by:

(x-x_0)^2+(y-y_0)^2=R^2

Therefore, in our case, by looking at the standard equation they give us, we extract the following info:

1)  R^2 = 9\,\,\,then\,\,\,R=3  since the radius must be a positive number and (R=-3) is not a viable answer.

2) x_0=-6    for ( x-x_0) to equal   (x+6)

3) y_0=-5    for ( y-y_0) to equal   (y+5)

Therefore, we are in the presence of a circle centered at the point (-6,-5), and of radius "3". That is what we draw as seen in the attached image.

According to the 2000 Census the population of Canton was 7,720. Holly Spring's population was 3,200. Canton's population increa
Kazeer [188]
Firstly, the rate of increase of Canton = 80/7720 = 0.010
The rate of increase of HP = 120/3200 = 0.0375
Apply  the formula of compound interest==> A =A'(1+i)^n
The population will be equal when the following equality is satisfied

7720(1+0.01)^n = 3200(1+0.0375)^n

or

7720x1.01^n = 3200x1.0375^n

Divide both sides by 3200 ===>(193/80)x1.01^n=1.0375^n
