Answer:

See explanations below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equations;

2x - 3y = 9... 1

2x + y = 13 ... 2

From 2;

y = 13-2x

Substitute into 1;

2x - 3(13-2x) = 9

2x -39 + 6x = 9

8x - 39 = 9

8x = 9+39

8x = 48

x = 6

Since y = 13-2x

y = 13-2(6)

y = 13-12

y = 1

The soluton to the system of equation is (6, 1)

Given the equations;

99x + 101y = 499; .... 1 * 101

101x + 99 y = 501 ... 2 * 99

______________

9999x + 10,201y = 50,399

9999x + 9801y = 49,599

Subtract

10201y - 9801y = 50399-49599

400y = 800

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into 1;

From 1;

99x + 101y = 499

99x + 101(2) =499

99x +202 = 499

99x = 499 - 202

99x = 198

x = 198/99

x =2

Hence the solution is (2,2)

For the equations;

49x - 57y = 172 .... * 57

57x - 49y = 252 __ * 49

____________________

2793x -3249y = 9804

2793x - 2401y = 12348

Subtract

-3249y+2401y = 9804-12348

-848y = -2544

y = 3

Substitute into 1;

49x - 57y = 172

49x - 57(3) = 172

49x - 171 = 172

49x = 171+172

49x = 343

x = 7

Hence the solution is (7, 3)

(−6)^2 Need halp please

ziro4ka [17]

This is an EXPONENT.

To do this all we need to do is multiply the base by itself how many times the power says.

(-6)² = (-6) × (-6) = 36

Recall that any negative number times another negative number is positive so that is why this would be positive.

So, (-6)² = 36

Answer and how to do it

Answer:

$(x - 9)^2 + y^2 = 36$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

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

You are given

$x^2 + y^2 - 18x + 45 = 0$

In order to put the equation in standard from, we need to complete the square. Since there is no y term, the y part is simply y^2, and there is no need to complete the square for y. For x, we do have an x term, so we must complete the square in x.

Start by grouping the x terms and subtracting 45 from both sides.

$x^2 - 18x + y^2 = -45$

Now we need to complete the square for x.

$x^2 - 18x ~~~~~~+ y^2 = -45$

The number that completes the square will go in the blank above, and it will also be added to the right side of the equation.

To find the number you need to add to complete the square, take the coefficient of the x term. It is -18. Divide it by 2. You get -9. Now square -9 to get 81. The number that completes the square in x is 81. Now you add it to both sides of the equation.

$x^2 - 18x + 81 + y^2 = -45 + 81$

$(x - 9)^2 + y^2 = 36$

Answer: $(x - 9)^2 + y^2 = 36$
