Answer:

$(x-2)^2+y^2=20$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of a circle P, and we know that the square RSTU is inscribed in the circle, this means that if we replace the points:

R(0,4) S(6,2) T(4,-4) and U(-2,-2) the equation must be verified.

Then, we have to replace the points in each option to see which one is the correct answer.

Option A: $(x-2)^2+y^2=68$

R(0,4):

$(x-2)^2+y^2=68\\(0-2)^2+4^2=68\\(-2)^2+16=68\\4+16=68\\20\neq 68$

We can see that R doesn't belong to the equation of the circle.

We could replace the rest of the points in the equation, but since we already know that R does not belong to the circle, we already know that it is not the right option.

Option B: $(x+2)^2+y^2=20$

R(0,4):

$(x+2)^2+y^2=20\\(0+2)^2+4^2=20\\2^2+4^2=20\\4+16=20\\20=20$

The point R(0,4) verifies the equation.

S(6,2):

$(x+2)^2+y^2=20\\(6+2)^2+2^2=20\\8^2+4^2=20\\64+16=20\\80\neq 20$

The point S doesn't belong to the equation of the circle, then we already know that this isn't the correct option.

Option C: $(x-2)^2+y^2=20$

R(0,4):

$(x-2)^2+y^2=20\\(0-2)^2+4^2=20\\(-2)^2+16=20\\4+16=20\\20=20$

The point R verifies the equation.

S(6,2):

$(x-2)^2+y^2=20\\(6-2)^2+2^2=20\\4^2+4=20\\16+4=20\\20=20$

The point S verifies the equation.

T(4,-4):

$(x-2)^2+y^2=20\\(4-2)^2+(-4)^2=20\\2^2+16=20\\4+16=20\\20=20$

The point T verifies the equation.

U(-2,-2):

$(x-2)^2+y^2=20\\(-2-2)^2+(-2)^2=20\\(-4)^2+4=20\\16+4=20\\20=20$

The point U verifies the equation.

We can see that the four points RSTU verifies the equation. This means that the square RSTU is inscribed in circle P whose equation is: $(x-2)^2+y^2=20$

We can see that the graph of the equation verifies the answer.

-3 greater then or equal to > -1

enot [183]

-3 is actually less than -1

it can't be equal because they are 2 different values

and it can't be greater than because if you place -3 and -1 in a number Line, -1 is closer to 0 which equals that -1 is greater than -3

Please need urgent help. It's my final question. I'll have be brainliest!!

X=32

All triangles add up to 180 degrees so if the right angle is 90 degrees then you have 90 degrees left. Next, you take the 2x and x-6 and plug them into the equation 3x-6=90. Once you solve that you get x=32.

Answer:

The change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysing the question one statement at a time.

Before the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space is:

$S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3\}$

And the probability of each is:

$P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}$

$P(1) = \frac{2}{6}$

$P(1) = \frac{1}{3}$

$P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}$

$P(2) = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(2) = \frac{1}{2}$

$P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}$

$P(3) = \frac{1}{6}$

P(Odd Number) is then calculated as:

$P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{6}$

Take LCM

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{6}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}$

After the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space becomes:

$S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3,3\}$

The probability of each is:

$P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}$

$P(1) = \frac{2}{7}$

$P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}$

$P(2) = \frac{3}{7}$

$P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}$

$P(3) = \frac{1}{7}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2}{7} + \frac{1}{7}$

Take LCM

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{7}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}$

Comparing P(Odd Number) before and after

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}$ --- Before

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}$ --- After

We can conclude that the change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.2(h−8)−h=h−16Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.2(h−8)−h=h−16Simplify: (Show steps)h−16=h−16Step 2: Subtract h from both sides.h−16−h=h−16−h−16=−16
Step 3: Add 16 to both sides.−16+16=−16+160=0Answer:All real numbers are solutions.
