Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

We are given: 18x - 2(3x + 1) = 5x - 16

First, lets distribute the -2 to the 3x and 1.

18x - 6x - 2 = 5x - 16

Now, we combine like terms.

12x - 2 = 5x - 16

Next, we add 2 to each side.

12x = 5x -14

Now, we subtract 5x from both sides.

7x = -14

Finally, we divide by 7 on both sides.

x = -2

Statements: Reasons:

18x - 2(3x + 1) = 5x - 16 Given

18x - 6x - 2 = 5x - 16 Distributive Property of Equality

12x - 2 = 5x - 16 Combine like terms

12x = 5x -14 Addition Property of Equality

7x = -14 Subtraction Property of Equality

x = -2 Division Property of Equality

A circle has an equation (x+2)2+(y−5)2=64. What is 34 of its area.

skad [1K]

Answer:

3/4 of the area of the circle is of $48\pi$ squared units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a circle:

The equation of a circle has the following format:

$(x - x_0)^2 + (y - y_0)^2 = r^2$

In which the center is $(x_0,y_0)$ and r is the radius.

Area of a circle:

The area of a circle of radius r is given by:

$A = \pi r^2$

Circle (x+2)² + (y-5)² = 64

Comparing with the standard equation, we have that:

$r^2 = 64$

Area of the circle:

$A = \pi r^2 = 64\pi$

What is 3/4 of its area?

$\frac{3A}{4} = \frac{3*64\pi}{4} = 3*16\pi = 48\pi$

3/4 of the area of the circle is of $48\pi$ squared units.

Is 24 a factor or multiple of 36

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Neither. A factor is when a number fits in to another number. For example, 6, 2, 12 and 1 are all factors of 12. A multiple again is when a number fits into a number but in a different way (2,4,6,8,10,12,14... are all multiples or 2)
24 and 36 both have common factors (12) which means that 12 is a factor of both of those numbers.
