Yes, stop signs are octagon shaped. So, true.
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF)
<u>GCF = 6y^6</u>
Factor out the GCF. (Write the GCF first. Then, in parenthesis divide each term by the GCF.)
6y^6(24y^8/6y^6 + 6y^6/6y^6)
Simplify each term in parenthesis
<u>6y^6(4y^2 + 1)</u>
The easiest way is to try the point (-4,1), that is, x=-4, y=1,
to see which equation works.
b works.
The usual way to do it is to find the equation of the circle
standard form of a circle is (x-h)²+(y-k)²=r², (h,k) are the coordinates of the center, r is the radius.
in this case, the center is (-2,1), so (x+2)²+(y-1)²=r²
the given point (-4,1) is for you to find r: (-4+2)²+(1-1)²=r², r=2
so the equation is (x+2)²+(y-1)²=2²
expand it: x²+4x+4+y²-2y+1=4
x²+y²+4x-2y+1=0, which is answer b.
2.1 x 10^10/ 7 x 10^17
= 3 x 10^-8
hope this helps and have a great day :)
