Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5
Answer:
Function
Step-by-step explanation:
Two different X's could equal the same Y value so this is a function. Remember if there's multiple of the same input (x) equalling different outputs (y) then it is not a function. If there's multiple inputs (x) equalling the same output (y) it's just coincidence and works.

Answer:
(x - 11)² + y² = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the center
O = ( (15 +7 / 2), (-3 + 3)/2 )
O = (11, 0)
Then find the radius squared
use the distance formula from the center to either end point of the diameter
r² = (15 - 11)² + (-3 - 0)²
r² = 16 + 9
r² = 25
Formula for circle
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
(h, k) is the center = (11, 0)
The equation is
(x - 11)² + y² = 25
