what is the equation of the circle with center (0,0) the passes through the point (5,-5). please help
x² + y² = 50
Step-by-step explanation:The circle centered at (h, k) with radius r has equation ...
... (x -h)² + (y -k)² = r²
You have (h, k) = (0, 0), so all we need to do is find r². We can do that by choosing r² so that the equation is true at the given point.
... x² + y² = (5)² + (-5)² = 25 + 25 = 50
Your equation is x² + y² = 50.

Which equation can be used to find the number of boxes, x, Krys bought? a. 2x − 12 = 60 b. 12x − 2 = 60 c. 12x − 24 = 60 d. 24 − 12x = 60
Answer:
c. 12x − 24 = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the number of boxes Krys bought.
12x is the number of pastries in those boxes. 2·12 = 24 is the number of pastries in the boxes Krys kept for herself. Then the number of pastries Krys brought to the party is ....
... 12x -24
We are told that number is 60, so we can use this equation to find x:
... 12x -24 = 60
Answer:
Option C : 12x − 24 =60
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Krys bought x boxes of pastries to bring to a party.
Each box contains 12 pastries.
She decides to keep two boxes for herself.
She brings 60 pastries to the party.
To Find : Equation can be used to find the number of boxes, x, Krys bought.
Solution :
Krys bought x boxes of pastries .
Each box contains 12 pastries.
So, total pastries she bought = 12 x
She decides to keep two boxes for herself.
Since 1 box contain 12 pastries .
Thus two box contains pastries = 12*2 =24 pastries
Now total pastries she bought is 12 x . Out of which she decides to keep 24 pastries . after keeping 24 pastries from 12 x pastries she bought 60 pastries to the party i.e.
⇒ 12 x - 24 = 60
Thus,Equation can be used to find the number of boxes, x, Krys bought:
12 x - 24 = 60
Hence Option C is correct .

Select one:
A. x+y=mb
B. mx−y=−b
C. −mx+y=0
D. 2y+x=−mb
B. mx−y=−b
Step-by-step explanation:Start with ...
... y = mx +b
Subtract mx.
... -mx +y = b
You want the leading coefficient positive, so multiply by -1.
... mx -y = -b . . . . matches selection B
Answer: B. mx−y=−b
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in standard form is given by :-
[tex]Ax+By=C[/tex]
, where A is a positive integer , B and C are integers.
The given equation : [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]
, where m is a positive integer.
The convert it into standard form , we subtract y and b from both sides , we get
[tex]y -y-b= mx + b-y-b[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex]-b= mx -y[/tex]
Or we can write it as [tex] mx -y=-b[/tex] → Standard form.
Thus , the equation of line in standard form = [tex] mx -y=-b[/tex] , where m is a positive integer.
Hence, the correct answer is B. mx−y=−b
Using the Law of Detachment, find the conclusion for the following: If two triangles are similar, then their corresponding angles are congruent.
Triangle ABC and Triangle XYZ are similar.
Question 8 options:

Step-by-step explanation:
equations
64a +132s = 1040a = 2ssolution
Adult ticket: $8Student ticket: $4Step-by-step explanation:a. It usually works well to let a variable represent the quantity the problem statement is asking you to find. I like to choose variable names that help me remember what the variable stands for. (x and y rarely do that) So, let's choose "a" for the cost of an adult ticket, and "s" for the cost of a student ticket.
The equations express the relationships described by the problem statement. The first relationship expresses the total revenue in terms of the numbers of tickets sold. You know that multiplying the number of tickets by the cost of the ticket will give the revenue from sales of that ticket. So, the total revenue is ...
... 64a +132s = 1040
The problem statement also tells you the relationship between the costs. An adult ticket is twice the cost of a student ticket, so ...
... a = 2s
These equations are your system of linear equations.
_____
b. The solution can be found using substitution. Since the second equation gives an expression for "a", we can use that in the first equation.
... 64(2s) +132s = 1040
... 260s = 1040 . . . . . . . . simplify
... 1040/260 = s = 4
... a = 2s = 2·4 = 8
An adult ticket costs $8; a student ticket costs $4.

Show ΔBCD ≅ ΔGFE, so ∠C ≅ ∠F. Base angle of an isosceles triangle are congruent, so ΔACF is isosceles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Informally, subtract DE from CE and DF. This will show CD ≅ EF.
Then ΔBCD ≅ ΔGFE by the HL theorem for right triangles.
Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent, namely the angles C and F.
Since base angles of ΔACF are congruent, it is isosceles.

It is 45, 45, 90 degrees right triangle, the ratio of the triangle 1:1:√2
Hypotenuse = 3√2*√2
= 3*2
= 6
Thank you.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Hypotenuse is the side that is opposite of the 90 degree angle (the longest side as well).
As seen in the triangle, the side opposite of 45° angle is known AND we want to find the hypotenuse.
Which trigonometric ratio relates opposite with hypotenuse?
SINE
We can write:
[tex]sin(A)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\sin(45)=\frac{3\sqrt{2}}{h}[/tex]
We let hypotenuse be [tex]h[/tex]. Also we know that [tex]sin(45)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]
Now we can solve for [tex]h[/tex]:
[tex]sin(45)=\frac{3\sqrt{2}}{h}\\h*sin(45)=3\sqrt{2}\\h=\frac{3\sqrt{2}}{sin(45)}\\h=\frac{3\sqrt{2}}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}\\h=3\sqrt{2}*\frac{\sqrt{2}}{1}\\h=6[/tex]
(we used the identity [tex](\sqrt{a})(\sqrt{a})=a[/tex])
2nd answer choice is right. Hypotenuse is 6.
The lengths of the sides of a triangle are 15 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm. What are the lengths of the sides of a similar triangle that has a perimeter of 26 cm ?
Answer:
6 cm,12 cm,8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
add the perimeter of the first triangle to get 65
then divide 65 by 26 to get 2.5
then divide all the side lengths by 2.5
15/2.5=6
20/2.5=8
30/2.5=12
The lengths of the sides of a similar triangle that has a perimeter of 26 cm are 6 cm, 8 cm, and 12 cm and this can be determined by using the given data.
Given :
The lengths of the sides of a triangle are 15 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm.
The following steps can be used in order to determine the lengths of the sides of a similar triangle that has a perimeter of 26 cm:
Step 1 - The formula of the perimeter of the triangle is given below:
[tex]\rm P = a + b + c[/tex]
where a, b, and c are the length of the sides of the triangle.
Step 2 - Now, determine the perimeter of the triangle whose sides are 15 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm.
P' = 15 + 20 + 30
P' = 65 cm
Step 3 - Now, divide both the perimeters of the triangles, that is:
[tex]=\dfrac{65}{26}[/tex]
= 2.5
Step 4 - So, the side length of the sides of a similar triangle is given below:
[tex]\rm \dfrac{15}{2.5} = 6\;cm[/tex]
[tex]\rm \dfrac{20}{2.5}=8 \;cm[/tex]
[tex]\rm \dfrac{30}{2.5}=12\;cm[/tex]

The side of a square is 3 cm smaller than one of the sides of a rectangle and 2 cm greater than its other side. Find the side of the square, if it’s known that the area of the square is 30 cm^2 less than the area of the rectangle.
36 cm
Step-by-step explanation:Let s represent the side of the square in cm. Then s+3 and s-2 are the sides of the rectangle of interest.
The area of the rectangle is the product of its side lengths:
... rectange area = (s+3)(s-2) = s² +s -6
The area of the square is the product of its side lengths, both of which are s.
... square area = s²
The difference of these areas is 30 cm², so ...
... rectangle area - square area = 30
... (s² +s -6) -(s²) = 30
... s = 36 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, add 6
The side of the square is 36 cm.
_____
Check
The rectangle dimensions are 39 cm by 34 cm, so its area is
... (39 × 34) cm² = 1326 cm²
The area of the square is (36 cm)² = 1296 cm²
The difference in areas is (1326 -1296) cm² = 30 cm², as required.
Find the rational roots of x^4 + 3x^3 + 3x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0
0, 1
1, 2
1, -1
-1, 2
Answer:
C. 1,-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the coefficient is 0 so x=1 is a root and (x-1) as a factor
so x^4+3x^3+3x^2-3X-4=(x-1)(x^3+4x^2+7x+4)
and the root of that is x=-1 and the factor is (x+1)
SO the answer is: x=1 and x=-1
Answer: -1, 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the polynomial equation x^4 + 3x^3 + 3x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0, do a quick test of polynomials using 1 and -1 in place of x.
This gives the sum of coefficients as zero
Testing with 1: 1 + 3 + 3 - 3 - 4 = 0
Testing with -1: 1 + (-3) + 3 - (-3) - 4
= 1 - 3 + 3 + 3 - 4 = 0
This gives that both (x + 1) and (x - 1) are roots.
(x + 1)(x - 1) = x² - 1 {difference of two squares}
Dividing the polynomial x^4 + 3x^3 + 3x^2 - 3x - 4 by (x² - 1) results in x² - 3x + 4 as quotient. Factorizing this result would give complex roots.
Therefore, x² - 1 = 0
x² = 1
Taking square of both sides of the equation gives
x = ± 1
1 and -1 are the rational roots to the polynomial.

Add 8 to both sides.
1 = 7d
Divide both sides by 7.
d = 1/715x+8y=56 in slope intercept form
The equation 15x + 8y = 56 can be rewritten in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) as y = -15/8x + 7, where -15/8 is the slope and 7 is the y-intercept.
Explanation:To convert the equation 15x + 8y = 56 into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), we want to isolate y. Here are the steps:
Subtract 15x from both sides of the equation, which gives us 8y = -15x + 56.Divide every term by 8 to solve for y. This gives us y = -15/8x + 7.In this equation, -15/8 is the slope, and 7 is the y-intercept. This means the line intersects the y-axis at y = 7, and for every 8 units increase in x, there is a 15 unit decrease in y, as the slope is negative.

Sample size 6 population size 25 is irrelevant except to note estimate might not be very good.
Jason jumps from a plane at an altitude of 1000 m. His parachute opens after 10 seconds. The graph shows the relationship between the distance traveled and time. How far does he fall in 1 minute and 20 seconds? Continuous graph with the y axis labeled Distance (m) and the x axis labeled Time, min. The function consists of 3 lines, the first is almost vertical with a positive slope connecting the points 0,0, to approximately 1 of 6, 250. From that point the second line connects to the first and passes through the points 1,500, 2,800 and 2 1 over 3, 1000. From that point the function is horizontal.
600 m
Step-by-step explanation:The slope between 1 minute and 2 minutes is ...
... (800 -500)/(2 -1) = 300 . . . . . . m/min
Thus in 20 seconds, 1/3 minute, Jason will fall ...
... (1/3 min)·(300 m/min) = 100 m
This distance is in addition to the 500 m he has already fallen in the first minute.
In 1 min 20 sec, Jason falls 500 m + 100 m = 600 m.

Jack signs up for a credit card that has a APR of 13.99%. Use the periodic (monthly) interest rate to calculate how much interest he owes on his unpaid February balance of $345.67?
Answer:
$3.46
Step-by-step explanation:
Unpaid February balance = $345.67
Annual Percentage Rate(APR) = 13.99 %
= [tex]\frac{13.99}{100}[/tex]
= 0.1399 (converted into decimal)
Periodic (monthly) interest rate = [tex]\frac{0.1399}{12}[/tex] (since there are 12 months in a year)
= 0.01
Interest he owes on his unpaid February balance of $345.67
= Periodic (monthly) interest rate * unpaid February balance
= 0.01 * 345.67
= 3.456
= $3.46 (rounded off to the hundredth place)
Factor completely 7x3y +14x2y3 − 7x2y2.
Answer:
7x^2y(x +2xy^2 -y)
Step-by-step explanation:
7, x^2, and y are factors of every term, so we can start by factoring those out.
... = 7x^2y(x +2xy^2 -y)
The trinomial does not factor further, so this is it.
Answer:
7x^2y(x +2xy^2 -y)
Step-by-step explanation:
7x^3y +14x^2y^3 − 7x^2y^2
WE find out GCF
7x^3y= 7*x*x*x*y
14x^2y^3= 7*2*x*x*y*y*y
7x^2y^2 = 7 *x*x*y*y
GCF is 7x^2y
Factor out GCF from the given expression. when we factor out 7x^2y we divide each term by GCF. we put GCF 7x^2y outside
7x^2y(x +2xy^2 -y)
76.8% of what number is 32.64
Answer:
42.5
Step-by-step explanation:
76.8% × ? = 32.64
? =
32.64 ÷ 76.8% =
32.64 ÷ (76.8 ÷ 100) =
(100 × 32.64) ÷ 76.8 =
3,264 ÷ 76.8 =

If your car gets 26 miles per gallon, how much does it cost to drive 430 miles when gasoline costs $3.00 per gallon?
Answer:
$51
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we must divide the total amount of miles by the miles per gallon, and multiply that by the cost per gallon.
430 / 26 = 16.53
Because this is talking about gallons, we should round up to 17.
17 * 3 = 51
It costs $51 to drive 430 miles when gasoline costs $3 per gallon.
Answer:
$49.62
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the car travels for 26 miles in 1 gallon. So we will find out the number of gallons it requires to travel for 430 miles by simple ratio method.
[tex]\frac{1 gallon}{x} =\frac{26 miles}{430}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{430}{26}[/tex]
[tex]x=16.54[/tex]
Now that we know that the car needs 16.54 gallons of gasoline to drive for 430 miles, we can simply multiply the number of gallons by the cost per gallon to find its total cost.
Total cost of gasoline to drive 430 miles = 16.54 x 3 = $49.62
