If you choose 10 swimmers and 4 are Stingrays, you can say that Stingrays make up roughly 40% of the swimmers. If 20 Stingrays make up 40% of all the swimmers, we just have to find what number 20 is 40% of. That’s easy enough by cross multiplication:

20/x = 40/100

20/x = 4/10

20/x = 2/5

x = 50.

Double check by multiplying 50 * 0.4. Since 50 * 0.4 = 20, we know we have the right answer. There are about 50 swimmers on this team.

Which equation represents a circle with the same radius as
sattari [20]

Answer :

(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=4^2 and (x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A circle with the same radius as  the circle shown but with a center at (-1.1).

To find : Which equation represents a circle ?

Solution :

The equation of a circle with center (h,k) and radius r is given by :

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Here, we are given (h,k)=(-1,1)

and radius r=4 units

So, equation of circle will be :

(x-(-1))^2+(y-1)^2=4^2

(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=4^2

or (x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=16

Therefore, the required equations of circle are

(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=4^2 and (x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=16
