Need help ASAP please--about estimate. which answer is correct. Please give me an opinion. Three students were asked to use esti

mation strategies to find a reasonable solution to this question: Ricky had 26 stickers before buying 7 from the store. Then he gave 8 to his sister. Estimate how many stickers he has left. From the choices below, select the student with the most reasonable solution.
a) Student A: Ricky has around 45 stickers left. Round 26 stickers to 40, 7 bought to 10, and 8 given to 5. Add 40 + 10 to get 50. Then subtract 50 − 5 to get the estimated answer of 45.
b) Student B: Ricky has around 30 stickers left. Estimate the sum of 6 from the 26 stickers plus 7 bought to be about 20. Add the 20 to the leftover 20 to get 40. Round 8 given to 10. Then subtract 40 − 10 to get the estimated answer of 30.
c) Student C: Ricky has around 10 stickers left. Estimate the sum of 6 from the 26 stickers plus 7 bought to be about 10. Add the 10 to the leftover 10 to get 20. Round 8 given to 10. Then subtract 20 − 10 to get the estimated answer of 10.

What is the equation of a circle with center (-3, -1) that contains the point (1, 2)?
Leno4ka [110]
So, we know the center is at -3,-1, ok

hmmm what's the radius anyway?   well, we know that there's a point at 1,2 that is on the circle's path...hmmmm what's the distance from the center to that point?  well, is the radius, let's check then.

\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&({{ -3}}\quad ,&{{ -1}})\quad 
%  (c,d)
&({{ 1}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})
\end{array}\qquad 
%  distance value
d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}
\\\\\\
r=\sqrt{[1-(-3)]^2+[2-(-1)]^2}\implies r=\sqrt{(1+3)^2+(2+1)^2}
\\\\\\
r=\sqrt{16+9}\implies r=\sqrt{25}\implies r=5

so, what's the equation of a circle with center at -3, -1 and a radius of 5?

\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ 
(x-{{ h}})^2+(y-{{ k}})^2={{ r}}^2
\qquad 
\begin{array}{lllll}
center\ (&{{ h}},&{{\quad  k}})\qquad 
radius=&{{ r}}\\
&-3&-1&5
\end{array} 
\\\\\\\
[x-(-3)]^2+[y-(-1)]^2=5^2\implies (x+3)^2+(y+1)^2=25

Elephant:
M1 = 4.6 mt = 4.6 * 1,000,000 g = 4,600,000 g
