Answer: 1045 cm of red ribbon and 1045 cm of yellow ribbon

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let R represent the amount red ribbon and Y represent the amouont of yellow ribbon.

  • bought the same lengths of red and yellow: R = Y
  • after used 286 of red, yellow is 5 times the remaining red; 5(R - 836) = Y

Use substitution method to solve:

5(R - 836) = R

5R - 4180 = R   <em>distributed 5 on the left side</em>

4R - 4180 = 0   <em>subtracted R from both sides</em>

4R = 4180         <em>added 4180 to both sides</em>

R = 1045         <em>divided both sides by 4</em>

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Our total is x.

Maysa took half of the cherries, so there is .5x left.

Nabilla took half of the remaining, so that is .5*0.5x, which is .25x

Abdulla took 3.

Your equation is:

.25x-3=5

.25x=8

x=32

So there are 32 cherries

The equation of a circle in general form is ​ x2+y2+18x−36y+369=0 ​
swat32
You have to complete the square of (x²+18x+?) as well as for (y²-36y+?)

You will find: (x+9)² + (y-18)² = 36


& this is the standard equation requested
