Answer:
-5/8a - 2.8b
Step-by-step explanation:
-3/8a + 3.2b + (-6b) - 1/4a
=> -3/8a + 3.2b + (-6b) - 2/8a
=> -5/8a + 3.2b - 6b
=> -5/8a - 2.8b
Therefore, -5/8a - 2.8b is the solution to your problem.

Answer:
(x +3)² +(y -4)² = 145
Step-by-step explanation:
The center of the circle is the midpoint of the given segment PQ. If we call that point A, then ...
A = (P +Q)/2
A = ((-12, -4) +(6, 12))/2 = (-12+6, -4+12)/2 = (-6, 8)/2
A = (-3, 4)
The equation of the circle for some radius r is ...
(x -(-3))² +(y -4)² = r² . . . . . . where (-3, 4) is the center of the circle
The value of r² can be found by substituting either of the points on the circle. If we use Q, then we have ...
(6 +3)² +(12 -4)² = r² = 9² +8²
r² = 81 +64 = 145
Then the equation of the circle is ...
(x +3)² +(y -4)² = 145
The answer is the last choice 2 1/2
Answer:
x=11/5, or x=2.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
9-3(x+4)=2(x-3)-8
9-3x-12=2x-6-8
9-12-3x=2x-14
-3-3x=2x-14
-3-3x-2x=-14
-3-5x=-14
5x=-3-(-14)
5x=-3+14
5x=11
x=11/5
x=2.2
-25 - 12x = -(-8x - 6) - 3(5x + 12)
Distributive property.
-25 - 12x = 8x + 6 - 15x - 36
Combine like terms.
-25 - 12x = -7x - 30
Add 12x to both sides.
-25 = 5x - 30
Add 30 to both sides.
5 = 5x
Divide both sides by 5.
x = 1
The x-intersect is 1.
