Answer:

x = -3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x + 3) = -2(x - 6)

Multiply the values on the outside of the parenthesis by what is on the inside.

5x + 15 = -2x + 12

Combine like terms by bringing them over to the other side using the necessary operation (addition or subtraction).

Bring -2x over to the left side by adding it to 5x.

5x + 2x = 7x

Bring 15 over to the right side by subtracting it from 12.

12 - 15 = -3

Now we have:

7x = -3

We need to get the x all by itself, so we divide both sides by 7.

7x/7 = x

-3/7 cannot be simplified further, so it is left as -3/7.

What is the radius of a circle whose equation is x2 y2 8x – 6y 21 = 0?

andrew11 [14]

we know that

the standard form of the equation of the circle is

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

where

(h,k) is the center of the circle

r is the radius of the circle

In this problem we have

$x^{2} +y^{2} +8x-6y+21=0$

<u>Convert to standard form</u>

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$(x^{2}+8x) +(y^{2}-6y)=-21$

Complete the square twice. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

$(x^{2}+8x+16) +(y^{2}-6y+9)=-21+16+9$

$(x^{2}+8x+16) +(y^{2}-6y+9)=4$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$(x+4)^{2} +(y-3)^{2}=4$

$(x+4)^{2} +(y-3)^{2}=2^{2}$

the center of the circle is $(-4,3)$

the radius of the circle is $2\ units$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the radius of the circle is $2\ units$
