Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of people that attended the movie.

And y the number of adults that attended the movie

Given;

Percent of adults that attended the movie = 40%

Number of adults that attended the movie y = 20

So,

40% of those that attended the movie area adults.

y = 40% of x

y = 40/100 × x

y = 0.4x

(Ratio of y to x is 4:10 or 0.4)

Making x the subject of formula;

x = y/0.4

Substituting the value of y given;

x = 20/0.4

x = 50

Therefore, 50 people attended the movie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change = final - initial / time(in years)

= 41 - 43 / 2014 - 2012

= - 2 / 2

<u>Rate of change</u> = <u>- 1</u>

Therefore, the number of employees with health care benefits reduced by 1 person per year between 2012 - 2014 in response to policy changes.

1. The equation of a circle is x^2 + y^2 + 6x - 4y + 4 = 0. What are the center and the radius of the circle? Show ALLLLLL your
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

(2, -3) and r = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

you can also plug this equation in desmos but I guess it's good to know how to do it also:

The equation of a circle is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

Now in order to make a perfect square on both sides, we need to do this:

First add 9 to both sides:

x^2 + 6x + 9 + y^2 -4y +4 = 9.

I purposely shifted it to show the perfect square created when you add 9 to both sides. Factor:

(x+3)^2 + y^2 - 4y + 4 = 9.

now the second bolded part is allso a perfect square. Factor:

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

Based on the equation of a circle, the center must be at (2, -3) and the radius is the square root of 9 which is 3.
