The product of a number and 3 can be represented as 3n (where n = unknown number). Then 6 less than 3n is 3n - 6. 

3n - 6 = -18
3n = -12
n = -4

Check: 
-4 x 3 = -12
-12 - 6 = -18 (this works!)

A circle has the equation x^2+y^2+x-6y+9=0. Find the center and any x or y intercepts.
Softa [21]
We know:x^2+y^2+x−6y+9=0So, we complete the square as such:x^2+y^2+x−6y+9=x^2+x+y^2−6y+9=(x+1/2)^2+(y−3)^2=(1/2)^2=1/4

In order for RECT to be a rectangle, what must the value of x be?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

If RECT is a rectangle, each of its interior angles are right angles, 90°. Since ∠RTC is split into two angles, the sum of the two angles must be 90°. (Angles that add to 90° are called complementary angles).

∠RTC = ∠RTE + ∠ETC     Formula for complementary angles

90 = 2x + 6 + 42                Substitute the angles

90 = 2x + 48               Combined like terms to simplify

Now isolate "x" to solve

90 - 48 = 2x + 48 - 48         Subtract 48 from both sides

42 = 2x

42/2 = 2x/2       Divide both sides by 2

x = 21

Therefore x is 21.
