Answer:

$a=6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-6(2+a)=-48\\-6*2 = -12\\-6*a = -6a\\\rightarrow -12-6a=-48\\-12+12-6a=-48+12\\\rightarrow-6a=-36\\\frac{-6a}{-6}=\frac{-36}{-6} \\\boxed {a=6}$

-12 -6a =-48
-6a= -48 +12
-6a= -36
Divise both sides by -6
A= 6

Please help, I added a photo to show the question. I’m so confused and I need help, so if you could show work I’d really appreci

Mashutka [201]

Angle A = 30 and its complement would be 60. This is because both angles must equal 90 degrees, and 30 + 60 = 90. Also in the directions it states Angle A must be half of its complement. 30 is half of 60. Sorry I don’t have any work, I just did it in my head!

Any questions? Hope this helps!

Which of the following is an equation of the circle with a center at (-1,4) and a radius of 2√5 units? plss pahelp naman

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation of a circle is represented by the formula $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2 = r^2$ . Remember that $(h,k)$ is the center and $r^2$ is the radius squared.

So, the equation of the circle must be $(x+1)^2 +(y-4)^2 = 20$ . Complete the square to change the form of the equations listed in the options and find the one that is equal.

Let's try this with option A. Move the constants to the right side, then use the completing the square method to place the equation in standard form:

$x^2 + y^2 +2x -8y -3 = 0\\x^2 + y^2 +2x-8y = 3\\x^2 + 2x +y^2-8y = 3\\(x^2 +2x+1)+(y^2-8y +16)=3+1+16\\(x+1)^2 + (y-4)^2=20$

The end result matches with the equation determined before, so option A is the answer.
