First make negative five eighths a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator (-.625).
Now divide that decimal in half (-.3125)
Last take that decimal and put it back into fraction form (-5/16).
One half of negative five eighths is -5/16.

-0.3125 is the answer, but you probably have to round

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

He is incorrect in this statement because 38 and 40 both have factors, other than 1 x itself. Prime numbers are numbers the only have 1 factor pair, and that is 1 x itself. Factors are the numbers you multiply to get the end result, and an example is 10x4=40. The factors of 40 are 8x5, 4x10, 2x20, and of course, 1x40. The factors of 38 are 2x19, and 1x38.

the equation of a circle in general form is x squared + y squared + 20x + 12 y + 15 equals 0what is the equation of the circle i

Marrrta [24]

Answer: $(x+10)^2+(y+6)^2=121$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in the general form is:

$ax^{2}+by^2+cx+dy+e=0$

The equaton of a circle in standard form is:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Where the center is at (h, k) and r is the radius

To write the equation of a circle from general form to standard form, you must complete the squaare, as you can see below:

1- Given the equation in general form:

$x^{2}+y^2+20x+12y+15=0$

2- Complete the square:

-Group the like terms and move the constant to the other side.

- Complete the square on the left side of the equation.

- Add the same value to the other side.

Then you obtain:

$(x^{2}+20x)+(y^2+12y)=-15\\(x^2+20x+(\frac{20}{2})^2)+(y^2+12y+(\frac{12}{2})^2)=-15+(\frac{20}{2})^2+(\frac{12}{2})^2\\\\(x+10)^2+(y+6)^2=-15+100+36\\(x+10)^2+(y+6)^2=121$
