Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The center lies on the vertical line x = -5 and the the circle is tangent to (touches in one place only) the y-axis. Thus, the radius is 5.
2) Starting with (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 and comparing this to the given
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 6^2
we see that h = 4, k = -3 and r = 6. The center is at (4, -3) and the radius is 6.
3) Notice that A and B have the same x-coordinate, x = 15. The center of the circle is thus (15, -2), where that -2 is the halfway point between the two given points in the vertical direction. Arbitrarily choose A(15, 4) as one point on the circle. Then the equation of this circle is
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = r^2 = 6^2, where the 6 is one half of the vertical distance between A(15, 4) and B(15, -8) (which is 12).
Answer:
There are 10 orange marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 25 marbles in the bag
40% are orange
To determine the number of orange marbles, we multiply the total number of marbles by the percent that are orange
25 *40% = number of orange marbles
25*.40
10
There are 10 orange marbles
George can feed up to 6 people because there are 12 pieces of sandwich and each person eats 2
Answer:
The correct answer is A) x = 1/4y^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the parabola opens to the side, we know that this is an x = equation. This allows us to eliminate both C and D.
Then we can determine that A is the correct answer due to the fact that it opens to the right. Negative lead coefficients always open to the left, so it could not be B
Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
(2/3)^x-1=27/8
Rewriting the right hand side
(2/3)^x-1=(3/2)^3
We know that a^-b = 1/a^b Hint: { 1/(3/2) = 2/3}
(2/3)^x-1=(2/3) ^-3
The bases are the same, so the exponents are the same
x-1 = -3
x -1+1 = -3+1
x = -2
