Answer:

hey There

Step-by-step explanation:

This compares with 27.5 percent of those age 55 to 64 and 25.6 percent of those age 65 to 74. With respect to being overweight, 31.8 percent of the individuals 75 and older were such, while 37.9 percent of 55 to 64 year olds and 37.8 percent of individuals age 65 to 74 were overweight (figure 1).

What is the greatest common factor of 8 and 18?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation: To find the greatest common factor or GCF of 8 and 18, we begin by finding all of the factors of each number.

To find the factors of 8, we know that 8 ÷ 1 is 8 so 1 and 8 are factors.

8 ÷ 2 is 4 so 2 and 4 are factors.

However, if we continue to divide 8 by 3, 4, 5, and so on, we won't find any new factors. So the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8.

Now let's find the factors of 18.

18 ÷ 1 is 18 so 1 and 18 are factors.

18 ÷ 2 is 9 so 2 and 9 are factors.

18 ÷ 3 is 6 so 3 and 6 are factors.

However, if we continue to divide by 4, 5, 6, and so on, we won't find any new factors. So the factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18.

Now that we have our list of factors, to find the greatest common factor, we simply find the largest number that is shared by the two lists.

Notice that our lists share a 1 but the largest number they share is a 2.

So the greatest common factor or gcf of 8 and 18 is 2.

17.5 how to make this into a fraction

BARSIC [14]

Take the .5 of the 17.5 and convert it to a fractin.
we know .5 is equal to 50% or 1/2

now we have a mixed number $17 \frac{1}{2}$

in order to convert it into an improper fraction you need to multiply the whole number by the denominator and then add the numerator all while keeping the denominator constant.

$W \frac{N}{D} = \frac{(W*D)+N}{D}$

so $17 \frac{1}{2}= \frac{(17*2)+1}{2}= \frac{35}{2}$

NO LINKS!!!! Find the equation of the circle below

inysia [295]

Answer:

$(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a circle

$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2$

where:

(a, b) is the center
r is the radius

From inspection of the diagram, the center of the circle appears to be at point (-3, 2), although this is not very clear. Therefore, a = -3 and b = 2.

Substitute these values into the general form of the equation of a circle:

$\implies (x-(-3))^2+(y-2)^2=r^2$

$\implies (x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=r^2$

Again, from inspection of the diagram, the maximum vertical point of the circle appears to be at y = 5. Therefore, to calculate the radius, subtract the y-value of the center point from the y-value of the maximum vertical point:

⇒ radius (r) = 5 - 2 = 3

Substitute the found value of r into the equation:

$\implies (x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=3^2$

Therefore, the final equation of the given circle is:

$\implies (x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=9$
