Mathematics

Answer:

<em>Terry had £780 initially and Faye had £1300</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>System of Equations</u>

We'll call the following variables:

x = Terry's balance in his bank account

y = Faye's balance in her bank account

The initial relation between them is:

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{3}{5}

Cross-multiplying:

5x = 3y        [1]

If Terry put £220 in his account he had x+220 and if Faye withdrew £300 from her account, she had y-300. Both quantities are equal, thus

x + 220 = y - 300

Subtracting 220:

x = y - 520         [2]

Substituting in [1]

5(y - 520) = 3y

Multiplying:

5y - 2600 = 3y

Adding 2600 and subtracting 3y:

2y = 2600

Dividing by 2:

y = 1300

From [2]:

x = 1300 - 520

x = 780

Terry had £780 initially and Faye had £1300

Find the center and radius for the circle, given the equation: x^2-14x+y^2+8=16
Strike441 [17]
You can do this by completing the square

x^2 - 14x + y^2 + 8  = 16

(x - 7)^2 - 49 + (y + 4)^2 - 16  = 16

(x - 7)^2 + (y + 4)^2 =   16 + 16 + 49  =  81


so the center is at (7 , -4) and radius = sqrt81 = 9

What is the geometric mean of 4 and 10
GalinKa [24]

Answer: 6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for geometric mean is given as :

G.m = \sqrt{pq}

Therefore , the geometric mean between 4 and 10 will be :

G.m = \sqrt{4(10)}

      = \sqrt{40}

      = 2\sqrt{10}

     = 6.3

Please help me with this slope question!
Juliette [100K]
The correct answer is y=2/3x

To find the slope you use rise over run so you take one dot (2,-5) and go up 2 units so that it would get one the same line as the other dot (5,-3) and then go to the right 3 units to get you to the exact spot that the dot is
