The ration of voters is 27 from company B /15 from company A = 1.8.

That means that if each vote of company A counts 1.8, they will have in total 1.8 * 15 = 27 votes, which is the same number of votes that company B has.

To you can say, that yes, both companies have the same number of votes.

Answer: option B. yes, then company A has 27 votes as well.

The radius of the circle x^2+y^2 +px+6y-3=0 is 4. find the possible values of p​
worty [1.4K]

Here, the given equation is,

x^2+y^2+px+6y-3=0

By copairing it with x^2+y^2+2gx+2fy+c=0, we get,

2g=p or, g=p/2

2f=6 or, f=3

c=-3

now the radius is,

r^2=g^2+f^2-c

or, 4^2=(p/2)^2 +3^2 -(-3)

or, 16= p^2/4 +9+3

or, 16-9-3=p^2/4

or p^2/4=4

or, p^2=4×4

or p^2=4^2

or p=4

therefore the rewuired value of p is 4.

a= ?

b= 3

c= 5 (c is always the hypotenuse)

*plug in given values

a^2 + 3^2 = 5^2

a^2 + 9 = 25

-9 -9

a^2 = 16
