First, you will have to simplify both sides of the equation via distribution.

-5(3m+6) = -3(4m-2)
-5*3m = -15m
-5*6 = -30
-3*4m =-12m
-3*-2 = 6

The problem now has changed to -15m-30 = -12m+6.

Now we have to get m by itself. We get 6 from the right to the left by subtracting it from both sides. We now have -15m-36 = -12m. Then we get -15m from the left to right by adding it on both sides. This now becomes
-36 = 3m. We divide 3 from both sides, getting m by itself. We end up with
-12 =m.

I need help with the equation.

natulia [17]

Answer:

(x - 3)² + (y + 9)² = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Given area = 25π , that is

πr² = 25π ( divide both sides by π )

r² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )

r = $\sqrt{25}$ = 5

With centre (h, k) = (3, - 9 ) and r = 5 , then

(x - 3)² + (y - (- 9) )² = 5² , that is

(x - 3)² + (y + 9)² = 25

How to find if it is a function or not:

Leto [7]

Answer: It is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is something that "eats" an input and transforms it into an output.

We write them as y = f(x)

Where x is the input, and y is the output.

Now, a function has an important rule, for each input x, the function can only "transform it" (or map it) into only one possible output.

This means that, for example, if we have, for x = x1.

And a single

f(x1) = y1

f(x1) = y2

where y1 and y2 are different values.

Then this is not a function, because it is mapping the value x1 into two different outputs.

In this case, we would have:

f(Z) = A.

So Z is the input, but we know that a ZIP code works for an entire city, and in a given city we have lots of different street addresses, then for a single value of the input, Z, we have a lot of possible values of the output.

This means taht the set (Z, A) can not represent a function.
