Answer:
8 kittens
Step-by-step explanation:
so is 17 kittens are napping do that minus 9 you can use tally marks if u like
If f(z)=m^z - n^z <span>and f(1)=2, f(2)=8
then
m - n = 2 so m = n + 2
m^2 - n^2 = 8
substitute </span>m = n + 2 into m^2 - n^2 = 8
so
m^2 - n^2 = 8
(n + 2)^2 - n^2 = 8
n^2 + 4n + 4 - n^2 = 8
4n = 4
n = 1
m = n + 2 = 1 + 2 = 3
so f(z) = 3^z - 1^z
if z = 1 the f(1) = 3^1 - 1^1 = 2
if z = 2 the f(2) = 3^2 - 1^2 = 9 - 1 = 8
if z = 3 the f(3) = 3^3 - 1^2 = 27 - 1 = 26
answer
f(3) = 26
Answer is a= 51/7 or 7 2/7
Step by step
-2/3 (a + 3) = 5/3a - 19
Distribute to resolve parentheses
-2/3a -2 = 5/3a - 19
Now to move variables to one side
Add 2/3a to both sides
-2/3a + 2/3a -2 = 5/3a + 2/3a -19
Combine like terms
-2 = 7/3a -19
Add 19 to both sides to isolate variable
-2 +19 = 7/3a -19 + 19
17 = 7/3a
Divide both sides by 7/3 to solve for a
(Remember when you divide a fraction, flip it and multiply.)
17 * 3/7 = a
51/7 = a
Picture attached shows steps in order, I think that is what you also needed?
The distance between the center and any point on the circle is the radius. That's likely what your book or teacher is asking for.
Note: double the radius and you get the diameter
