Answer:

y = $\frac{x}{x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x(y + 2) = 3x + y ← distribute parenthesis on left side

xy + 2x = 3x + y ( subtract 2x from both sides )

xy = x + y ( subtract y from both sides )

xy - y = x ← factor out y from each term on the left side )

y(x - 1) = x ← divide both sides by (x - 1)

y = $\frac{x}{x-1}$

Write an equation of the circle with center (5, -7) and radius 9.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

(x - 5)² + (y + 7)² = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Here (h, k) = (5, - 7) and r = 9, thus

(x - 5)² + (y - (- 7))² = 9², that is

(x - 5)² + (y + 7)² = 81 ← equation of circle

Solve this equation<br> 5x+2=3x-20-1x

Rainbow [258]

$5x+2=3x-20-1x\\5x+2=2x-20\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 2\ from\ both\ sides\\5x=2x-22\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 2x\ from\ both\ sides\\3x=-22\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\\\\\boxed{x=-\frac{22}{3}}\Rightarrow\boxed{x=-7\frac{1}{3}}$
