Answer:

The correct answer is a) 16

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this first distribute the interior negative to both terms in the parenthesis.

9 - {x - (7 + x)}

9 - {x - 7 - x}

Now simplify the like terms.

9 - {-7}

Now distribute the negative once again.

9 + 7

And complete the indicated operation.

16

Answer:

r = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 6x + y^2 - 8y = - 16

Take half the linear term and square it.

x^2 + 6x + (3)^2 + y^2 - 8y + (-4)^2 = - 16

Add the squared amounts to the right.

x^2 + 6x + 9 + y^2 - 8y + 16 = - 16 + 9 + 16  

Combine on the right.

x^2 + 6x + 9 + y^2 - 8y + 16 = 9

Represent the 2 quadratics as perfect squares.

(x + 3)^2 + y - 4)^2 = 9

The radius is the square root of 9 which is 3
