(x,y) = (r,16)
With this knowledge, plug in r for x, and 16 for y
16 = 2(r) - 4
Isolate the r, add 4 to both sides
16 (+4) = 2r - 4 (+4)
20 = 2r
Divide 2 from both sides
20/2 = 2r/2
r = 20/2
r = 10
hope this helps
Answer:
A. (x + 2)^2 = 31.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 4x = 27
x^2 + 4x - 27 = 0
A. (x + 2)^2 = 31
x^2 + 4x + 4 - 31 = 0
x^2 + 4x - 27 = 0
This option corresponds to the given equation, so it is correct.
B. (x + 2)^2 = 43
x^2 + 4x + 4 - 43 = 0
x^2 + 4x - 39 = 0
This does not correspond to the equation.
C. (x + 4)^2 = 31
x^2 + 8x + 16 - 31 = 0
x^2 + 8x - 15 = 0
This does not correspond to the equation.
D. (x+4)^2 = 43
x^2 + 8x + 16 - 43 = 0
x^2 + 8x - 27 = 0
This does not correspond to the equation.
So, your answer is A. (x + 2)^2 = 31.
