Two numbers X and Y
5X=Y
Y-X=788
Solve for Y
Y=788+X
Plug in Y to the first equation
5X=788+x
4X=788
X=197
Y=788+197
Y=985

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ 4 \ inches}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference is the perimeter of a circle. It can be found using the formula:

$c= \pi d$

However, we are given the radius.

The radius measures from the center to the edge of the circle.
The diameter measures from edge to edge through the center.
So, the diameter is twice the radius, or d=2r

The formula can be rewritten as:

$c= \pi 2 r$

We know the circumference is 25.12 inches.

$25.12 \ in = \pi 2r$

Let's round pi to 3.14

$25.12 \ in = (3.14) 2r$

We want to solve for the radius, so we must isolate it.

Divide both sides by 3.14 because the inverse of multiplication is division.

$25.12 \ in / 3.14= (3.14 ) 2r / 3.14$

$8 \ in = 2r$

Divide both sides by 2.

$8 \ in / 2 = 2r/2$

$4 \ in = r$

The radius of the disc is <u>4 inches.</u>

How can you check the solution of an equation?

vichka [17]

In order to check you would plug in the value of x and see if it equals the same thing.
or do the opposite of the equation. it depends on if you are dealing with x or not. so if you have 6-3 is 3 you can do 3+3 is 6

Which equation is in point-slope form for the given point and slope?

faust18 [17]

Answer: y-7 = 4(x+3), choice B

============================================

Point slope form is generally

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

we have m as the slope and (x1,y1) as the point this line goes through. In this case,

m = 4

(x1,y1) = (-3,7) so x1 = -3 and y1 = 7

So,

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y - 7 = 4(x - (-3))

y - 7 = 4(x + 3)

which is why choice B is the answer
