Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

- 5 x + 1 = 31

subtract 1 from 31

- 5 x = 31 - 1

- 5 x = 30

Divide 30 by - 5

x = 30 / - 5

x = - 6

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 1 = 31

Subtract 1 from each side

-5x + 1-1 = 31-1

-5x = 30

Divide by -5

-5x/-5 = 20/-5

x = -6

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2=34}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form:

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

(h, k) - center

r - radius

We have the endpoints of the diameter: (-1, 6) and (5, -4).

Midpoint of diameter is a center of a circle.

The formula of a midpoint:

$\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2};\ \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$

Substitute:

$h=\dfrac{-1+5}{2}=\dfrac{4}{2}=2\\\\k=\dfrac{6+(-4)}{2}=\dfrac{2}{2}=1$

The center is in (2, 1).

The radius length is equal to the distance between the center of the circle and the endpoint of the diameter.

The formula of a distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Substitute the coordinates of the points (2, 1) and (5, -4):

$r=\sqrt{(5-2)^2+(-4-1)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{9+25}=\sqrt{34}$

Finally we have:

$(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2=(\sqrt{34})^2$

Answer:

162°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of inscribed angle ADC is half the measure of the intercepted arc AC. That arc has a measure that is the same as the central angle it subtends, angle ABC.

So, central angle ABC is twice the measure of inscribed angle ADC:

m∠ABC = 2·81° = 162°

Which property was used to simplify the expression?<br><br> (3z)^2 = 3^2z^2 = 9z^2

svet-max [94.6K]

One of the product rules for exponents was used.
$(ab)^{c}=a^{c}b^{c}$

Or, you can consider that the definition of an exponent and the associative and commutative properties of multiplication were used.
$(3z)^{2}\\=(3z)(3z)\\=3\cdot 3\cdot z\cdot z\\=3^{2}z^{2}\\=9z^{2}$
