I'll assume the above equation is: 9 - 7x = 7 - 4(2x+3)

* do distributive multiplication
9 - 7x = 7 - 8x - 12

*move like terms
-7x + 8x = 7 - 12 - 9

* solve for x
x = 7 - 21
x = -14

To check, substitute x by its value -14

9 - 7x = 7 - 4(2x+3)
9 - 7(-14) = 7 -4[2(-14) + 3]
9 + 98 = 7 - 4(-28 +3)
107  = 7 - 4(-25)
107 = 7 + 100
107 = 107

The general form of the equation of a circle is Ax2 + By2 + Cx + Dy + E = 0, where A = B 0. If the circle has a radius of 3 unit
Anettt [7]
(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

r=3
(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = 3^2

the center lies on the y-axis --> h=0
x^2 + (y-k)^2 = 3^2 = 9

expand
x^2 + y^2 -2ky + k^2 = 9

x^2 + y^2 -2ky + (k^2 - 9) = 0
compare to general form
A=1 , B=1 and C =0
D= -2k and E=k^2 - 9

Square root of 144 X^7 Y^5
LekaFEV [45]
The first step to solving this is to factor out the first perfect square
\sqrt{12^{2} x^{7} y^{5}   }
now factor out the second perfect square
\sqrt{ 12^{2} x^{6} X x  y^{5}  }
then factor out the second perfect square 
\sqrt{ 12^{2}  x^{6} X x  y^{4} X y}
the root of a product is equal to the product of the roots of each factor
\sqrt{ 12^{2} } \sqrt{ x^{6} } \sqrt{ y^{4} } \sqrt{xy}
reduce the index of the radical and exponent with 2 of the first square root
12\sqrt{ x^{6} } \sqrt{ y^{4} } \sqrt{xy}
reduce the index of the radical and exponent with 2 of the second square root
12x³\sqrt{ y^{4} } \sqrt{xy}
reduce the index of the radical and exponent with 2 of the third square root
12x³y²\sqrt{xy}
this means that the correct answer to your question is 12x³y²\sqrt{xy} .
