The sum of two numbers is 51. If one fourth of one number exceeds one fifth of another number by 6, which of the following is the smaller number? 42 15 9 36

Let X be the smaller number

Then the larger number is X + 24

X + (X + 24) = 58

2X + 24 = 58

2X = 34

X = 17

So the smaller number is 17, the larger number is 41 (17 + 24)

the formula for the equation of a circle is (x – h)2+ (y – k)2 = r2, where (h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle, and r represents the radius of the circle. if a circle is tangent to the x-axis at (3,0), this means it touches the x-axis at that point.
