Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

First distribute the 1/3 to the "a" and the 5, which leaves you with 8= 1/3a+ 5/3.

Then subtract 5/3 from both sides. 8-5/3, which solves out to 19/3= 1/3a. Now times both sides by 3/1 (the reciprocal of 1/3 to get it to cancel out) 19/3*3. The 3's cancel out and you are left with 19=a.

I hope this helped! :)

Answer: a=19

Step-by-step explanation: In order to solve this question, we must first take out the parenthesis, we can do this by taking 1/3 and multiply it by a and 5. This will give us 8=1/3a+5/3, with this we can subtract 5/3 on both sides of the equation, which will then give us, 19/3=1/3a. Last, we can divide 19/3 by 1/3 giving us 19 as our final anwser. a=19

What's the standard equation of the circle with the general equation x2 + y2 + 4x – 2y – 20 = 0? answers: 1) (x + 2)2 + (y – 1)2
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

4).  (x + 2)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 2y - 20 = 0

x^2 + 4x + y^2 - 2y = 20

Completing the square on the x and y terms:

(x + 2)^2  - 4 + (y - 1)^2 - 1 = 20

(x + 2)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 20 + 4 + 1

(x + 2)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 25.
