D.) 7(8 - X) - 5 = 40

let X = unknown number

eigth minus a number is 8 - x. since the product is seven and eight minus a number then 7 * [8-x] or 7(8-5).
40 is its equivalent when the product is decreased by 5; therefore, 7(8-x) - 5 = 40.

Answer : D  7(8-x)-5 = 40

The product of eight minus a number and seven equals forty when decreased by five

Let the unknown number be x

eight minus a number means 8 -x

For product we multiply

The product of eight minus a number and seven

It means the product of 8-x  and 7

So expression becomes 7(8-x)

The product of eight minus a number and seven equals forty when decreased by five

To decrease by 5 we subtract 5

7 (8-x) -5 and this equals 40

So equation becomes 7(8-x)-5 = 40

Can you write the equation for a circle if the given point does not lie on the circle? Explain .
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle with center (a,b) and radius r is given as:

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

If a given point (x,y) does not lie on this circle, it will not satisfy its equation.

This means the distance from the point to the center is not equal to the radius.

It is either less or greater than the radius.

Hence you cannot write the equation of the circle.
