Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is given as:

x^2+y^2-4x+2y=b

Upon solving this equation, we have

x^2-4x+4+y^2+2y+1=b+4+1

which can be written as:

(x-2)^2+(y+1)^2=b+5                   (1)

Thus, the y- coordinate of the center of the circle is y=-1.

Now, comparing the equation (1) with the equation of circle, we have

(x-a)^2+(y-c)^2=r^2

where r is the radius of the circle and (a,c) is the center.

Thus, on comparing, we have

⇒b+5=r^2

Also, it is given that the radius of the circle is 7 units, thus putting r=7 in above equation, we get

⇒b+5=(7)^2

⇒b+5=49

⇒b=44 units

Thus, the value of b is 44 units in the given equation.

X² + y² - 4 x + 2 y = b
x² - 4 x + 4 + y² + 2 y + 1 = b + 4 + 1
( x - 2 )² + ( y + 1 )² = b + 5
y - coordinate of the center of the circle is:  y = - 1
b + 5 = r
b + 5 = 7
b = 7 - 5
b = 2

joja [24]

Answer: 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a survey results of a middle school shows that 3/20 of the students played football.

The percentage of the students that play football in this schools would be calculated as multiplying the fraction by 100. This will be:

= 3/20 × 100

= 3 × 5

= 15%

Answer:

Pattern B

<h3> Explain:  </h3>

A quadratic relationship is characterized by constant second differences.

<em><u>Pattern A </u></em>

Sequence: 0, 2, 4, 6

First Differences: 2, 2, 2 . . . . constant indicates a 1st-degree (linear, arithmetic) sequence

__________________________________________________________

<em><u>Pattern B</u></em>

Sequence: 1, 2, 5, 10

First Differences: 1, 3, 5

Second Differences: 2, 2 . . . . constant indicates a 2nd-degree (quadratic) sequence

__________________________________________________________

<em><u>Pattern C</u></em>

Sequence: 1, 3, 9, 27

First Differences: 2, 6, 18

Second Differences: 4, 12 . . . . each set of differences has a common ratio, indicating an exponential (geometric) sequence

__________________________________________________________

Pattern B shows a geometric relationship between step number and dot count.
