Answer:
(1/2)s = 345
s = 690 (Maggie's savings balance)
Step-by-step explanation:
For any problem, word problem or otherwise, you start be reading and understanding the problem. You should specifically look for
- what you're being asked to find (what is the question to answer)
- the information you're given that is relevant to the question asked.
Here, you're asked to find a savings account balance. You're told that $345 is half that amount.
__
After you decide what you're looking for and the given relevant information, you use the problem statement and your personal knowledge to write one or more equations relating what you know to what you want to find.
A first step for doing this is to define any necessary variables. In this problem, we can use "s" for the original savings balance (in dollars). (I like to choose letters that remind me what they stand for. "x" or "y" can sometimes get mixed up. For a one-variable problem, it doesn't really matter what you call it. It is helpful to be clear about the units of measure of any variables. Confusion there can also lead to errors.)
The problem statement tells us that half the savings account amount is $345, so our equation is ...
(1/2)s = 345
__
The "one step" required to solve this so to multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
s = 690
Maggie had $690 in her savings account before she bought the computer.
Answer: B. The coordinates of the center are (-3,4), and the length of the radius is 10 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle in the center-radius form is:
(1)
Where 
are the coordinates of the center and 
is the radius.
Now, we are given the equation of this circle as follows:
(2)
And we have to write it in the format of equation (1). So, let's begin by applying common factor 2 in the left side of the equation:
(3)
Rearranging the equation:
(4)
(5)
Now we have to complete the square in both parenthesis, in order to have a perfect square trinomial in the form of 
:
<u>For the first parenthesis:</u>
We can rewrite this as:
Hence in this case 
and 
:
<u>For the second parenthesis:</u>
We can rewrite this as:
Hence in this case 
and :
Then, equation (5) is rewritten as follows:
(6)
<u>Note we are adding 9 and 16 in both sides of the equation in order to keep the equality.</u>
Rearranging:
(7)
At this point we have the circle equation in the center radius form
Hence:
