I can’t seem to look at the bottom two answers and the two ( A and B) are not correct. So you’re left with either C or D
X² + y² - 8x - 12y + 52 = 36
x² - 8x + y² - 12y + 52 = 36
x² - 8x + y² - 12y = 88
(x² - 8x + 16) + (y² - 12y + 36) = 88 + 16 + 36
(x - 4)² + (y - 6)² = 138
(h, k) = (x, y) = (4, 6)
Your answer should be C. 3x^3√2
Slope=rise/run
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) if you have the points
(x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
we have the points (-1,3) and (4,-7)
x1=-1
y1=3
x2=4
y2=-7
slope=(-7-3)/(4-(-1))=-10/5=-2
answer is D
1. 3x^1 + 8 - (2x^2 + 1).....distribute the negative thru the parenthesis
3x^1 + 8 - 2x^2 - 1....now combine like terms
-2x^2 + 3x^1 + 7
2. 5x^2 + 3x - 4 - (x^2 - 6x)...same thing..distribute
5x^2 + 3x - 4 - x^2 + 6x...combine like terms
4x^2 + 9x - 4
