Answer:

  A:  -2

Step-by-step explanation:

You want some factor k such that k(5x) +(10x) = 0. That is, 5k+10 = 0. The solution to this is k=-2, corresponding to selection A.

k = -2 for sure

I normally multiply 5x+10y=15 by -2 to cancel out the x's.

This is because you can only solve the problem if one of your variables is canceled out and then you solve!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rectangle of 3cm by 4cm and a circle of 1 cm inside it:

The Area of the shaded portion =Area of Rectangle-Area of Circle

Area of a Rectangle=Length X Width=3 X 4 =12cm^2

Area of the circle =\pi r^2=\pi X 1^1=3.142cm^2

Area  of the shaded portion=12-3.142

=8.86cm^2

elena-s [515]

Sample Answer: Write the equation using slope and y-intercept in slope-intercept form, y = –275x + 3500. Then, substitute the x and y values of the point into the equation, 1850 = –275(6) + 3500. Simplify to see if both sides are equivalent. Yes, the instructor is correct because both sides are equivalent.
