Hi there! :)

$\large\boxed{y = 2x + 6}$

A line that is parallel to y = 2x + 3 must have the same slope of 2. Therefore:

We can use the given point as well as the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b to solve.

Plug in the x-coordinate for "x" and y-coordinate of the point into "y":

2 = 2(-2) + b

2 = -4 + b

6 = b

Rewrite the equation:

y = 2x + 6

A circle has a center of (5,-5) and goes through (6,-2). What is the radius?

Fittoniya [83]

Start with the equation of a circle whose center is at (h,k) and whose radius is r:

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

Substituting the given coordinates of the center:

(x-5)^2 + (y-[-5])^2 = r^2, or (x-5)^2 + (y+5)^2 = r^2

Substituding the given coordinates of a point (6,-2) on the circle:

(6-5)^2 + (-2+5)^2 = r^2

Simplifying:

1^2 + 3^2 = r^2, or 1 + 9 = r^2, or 10= r^2. Then r = sqrt(10).

Answer:

a^4+3a^2-3b^2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\hookrightarrow \: (2 {a}^{2} - b)(3 {a}^{2} + 3b) \\ \hookrightarrow \:2 {a}^{2} (3 {a}^{2} + 3b) - b(3 {a}^{2} + 3b) \\ \hookrightarrow \:6 {a}^{4} + 6 {a}^{2} b - 3 {a}^{2} b - 3 {b}^{2} \\ \hookrightarrow \:{a}^{4} + 3 {a}^{2} b- 3 {b}^{2}$
