Answer:
a = 36 , b = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
expand the right side using FOIL and compare coefficients with like terms on left side.
(x - b)²
= x² - 2bx + b² , compare to x² - 12x + a , then
- 2b = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
b = 6
and a = b² = 6² = 36
10% as a decimal (a value between 0 and 1) is 0.1
Answer:
(x +4)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write the equation for a circle with the formula
(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2
Where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius
We know the center is at (-4,2) and the radius is 4
(x- -4)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 4^2
(x +4)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 16
