A car travels 172 miles using 7 gallons of gas. at at that rate,how far can the car travel using 42 gallons of gas

The answer is A. 1,032 miles.
You divide 42 gallons by 7. This is because you know how many miles can be reached per 7 gallons.
41
172
x 6
------
1032

When you divide 42/7 you get 6. You then take 6 and multiply it by 172. 6x2 is 12, you carry the one, 6x7 is 42, plus the 1 that you carried, so you get 43, you carry the 4, 6x1 is 6, and you add the 4 to get 10. This brings your answer to 1, 032.

What is the radius of a circle whose equation is x2 y2 8x – 6y 21 = 0?

andrew11 [14]

we know that

the standard form of the equation of the circle is

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

where

(h,k) is the center of the circle

r is the radius of the circle

In this problem we have

$x^{2} +y^{2} +8x-6y+21=0$

<u>Convert to standard form</u>

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$(x^{2}+8x) +(y^{2}-6y)=-21$

Complete the square twice. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

$(x^{2}+8x+16) +(y^{2}-6y+9)=-21+16+9$

$(x^{2}+8x+16) +(y^{2}-6y+9)=4$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$(x+4)^{2} +(y-3)^{2}=4$

$(x+4)^{2} +(y-3)^{2}=2^{2}$

the center of the circle is $(-4,3)$

the radius of the circle is $2\ units$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the radius of the circle is $2\ units$
