A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius.

To obtain this form use the method of completing the square.

Given

x² + y² - 6x + 14y = 142

Collect the x and y terms together

x² - 6x + y² + 14y = 142

add (half the coefficient of both x and y terms )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 + y² + 2(7)y + 49 = 142 + 9 + 49

(x - 3)² + (y + 7)² = 200 → A

x=4

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is

c. 4

step-by-step explanation:

the given polynomial is

the degree of the polynomial is the highest exponent which is 4.

the -4 is called the leading coefficient.

this polynomial has only one term so it is a monomial.

the correct answer is option c.
