The steps for determining the center and radius of a circle using the completing the square method are shown below: Step 1 [orig

inal equation]: x2 − 10x + y2 + 12y = 20 Step 2 [group like terms]: (x2 − 10x) + (y2 + 12y) = 20 Step 3 [complete the quadratics]: (x2 − 10x + 25) + (y2 + 12y + 36) = 20 + (25 + 36) Step 4 [simplify the equation]: (x2 − 10x + 25) + (y2 + 12y + 36) = 64 Step 5 [factor each quadratic]: (x − 5)2 + (y + 6)2 = 82 Step 6 [identify the center and radius]: Center = (5, −6) Radius = 8 What is the first incorrect step, and how can it be fixed? Step 3, replace 25 with 5 and replace 36 with 6 Step 4, replace 64 with 81 Step 5, replace − 5 with + 5 and replace + 6 with − 6 All steps are correct.

We are given original equation: x^2 -10x + y^2 + 12y = 20

We need to find the enter and radius of a circle using the completing the square method.

The steps are as following :

Step 1 [original equation]: x^2 − 10x + y^2 + 12y = 20 .

Step 2 [group like terms]: (x^2 − 10x) + (y^2 + 12y) = 20

Step 3 [complete the quadratics]: (x^2 − 10x + 25) + (y^2 + 12y + 36) = 20 + (25 + 36).

Step 4 [simplify the equation]: (x^2 − 10x + 25) + (y^2 + 12y + 36) = 64.

Step 5 [factor each quadratic]: (x − 5)^2 + (y + 6)^2 = 8^2

Step 6 [identify the center and radius]: Center = (5, −6) Radius = 8.

<h3>Step 6 is incorrect.</h3><h3>The center should be (5,-6).</h3><h3> Replace − 5 with + 5 and replace + 6 with − 6.</h3>

<h3>Answer:</h3>

C)\ a_n=2a_{n-1}-1

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

You can try the choices to see which one works. The differences between an values double each time. They have the sequence 1, 2, 4, 8. So, you know that choices A) and D) do not work. They show the difference to be constant at 1 or 8. Since the differences are multiplied by 2, C) is a reasonable choice. Trying that, we find it describes the sequence perfectly:

a2 = 2·2 -1 = 3

a3 = 2·3 -1 = 5

a4 = 2·5 -1 = 9

a5 = 2·9 -1 = 17

___

Trying choice B on the last term, we have

... a5 = 3·a4 -3 = 3·9 -3 = <em>24 ≠ 17</em>

A certain family can afford a monthly mortgage payment of $1,340.00. With an APR of 5.25% per annum, what is the maximum mortgag
irina [24]

Answer:

  $198,859.03

Step-by-step explanation:

The amortization formula is good for this. Fill in the given numbers and solve for the unknown.

 A = P(r/n)/(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt))

where A is the monthly payment, P is the principal amount of the loan, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times per year interest is compounded, and t is the number of years.

  1340.00 = P(0.0525/12)/(1 -(1 +0.0525/12)^(-12·20)) ≈ 0.00673844·P

  P ≈ 1340/0.00673844 ≈ $198,859.03

The family can afford a loan for $198,859.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

This is assuming the following:

1) fork boxes comes with 12 count.

2) spoon boxes comes in 18 count.

3) knife boxes comes in 24 count.

Find the least common factor:

12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72

18: 18, 36, 54, 72

24: 24, 48, 72

72 is the least common factor shared by all these numbers.
