step2; make zero-pairs

you would get; 2x - 8

lastly; 8÷2=4x

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if the statement is true, just plug in 8 each time you see x.

3(8)+ 4 = 28

5(8) - 12 = 28

This proves the statement is true, x = 8.

a. The center of the circle will be the coordinate point of the marked point inside the circle.

center: (3,-5)

The radius is the distance between the center and any point on the circle.

radius: 4 units

b. standard form for circles: (x-h)²+(y-k)²=r² where (h,k) is the center

standard form: (x-3)²+(y+5)²=16

c. Simplify equation in standard form to get general form.

(x-3)²+(y+5)²=16

x²-6x+9+y²+10y+25=16

general form: x²+y²-6x+10y+18=0

Hope u find this useful!

How do you answer this question.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Lets write this out:-

$\frac{50}{100} + \frac{30}{100}$

To answer this we just need to add the numerators of both fractions because the denominator's are already common multiples.

$\frac{50}{100}+ \frac{30}{100} = \frac{80}{100}$

Now lets simplify $\frac{80}{100}$ .

$\frac{80/20}{100/20}= \frac{4}{5}$

So, $\frac{50}{100}+ \frac{30}{100} = \frac{80}{100}= \frac{4}{5}$

Hope I helped ya!! xD
