Twice means times 2.
1) 2(ab) gives twice the product of a and b.
2) (2a)b gives the product of twice a and b.
Answer:
If
y
varies inversely as
x
then
XXX
x
⋅
y
=
c
for some constant
c
We are told when
x
=
2
then
y
=
15
So
XXX
2
⋅
15
=
c
XXX
⇒
c
=
30
and
XXX
x
⋅
y
=
30
Therefore when
y
=
3
XXX
x
⋅
3
=
30
XXX
→
x
=
10

Answer:
x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
A 'sum' means addition, 'a number' is represented by a variable, in this case, I chose 'x'. I could have picked any variable I wanted.

3 + x in math language. We write variables before constants, so it gets
rewritten as x + 3

Answer:
(x +4)^2 +(y +8)^2 = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r is ...
(x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2
The circle centered at (h, k) = (-4, -8) with radius 8 has equation ...
(x +4)^2 +(y +8)^2 = 64
