(B) 8 less than the product of 3 and n
Here, we are given an equation 3n - 8
Let us consider each of the options one by one
(A) the product of 3, n and 8 will be written as 24n. Hence this isn't the correct answer.
(B) 8 less than the product of 3 and n will be written as 3n - 8. This matches our equation and hence is the correct answer.
(C) n minus 8 times 3 will be written as 24 - n. Hence, this is also incorrect.
(D) 3 times n less than 8 will be written as 8 - 3n. Thus, this is also eliminated.
Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Equation of a circle</u>

where:
- (a, b) is the center
- r is the radius
From inspection of the diagram, the center of the circle <em>appears</em> to be at point (-3, 2), although this is not very clear. Therefore, a = -3 and b = 2.
Substitute these values into the general form of the equation of a circle:


Again, from inspection of the diagram, the <u>maximum vertical point</u> of the circle appears to be at y = 5. Therefore, to calculate the radius, subtract the y-value of the center point from the y-value of the maximum vertical point:
⇒ radius (r) = 5 - 2 = 3
Substitute the found value of r into the equation:

Therefore, the final equation of the given circle is:

Let x = # of Republicans
x + 4 = # of Democrats
x + x + 4 = 100
x = 48
48 + 4 = 52
There are 52 Democrats and 48 Republicans.
