Homer has made mistake in step 2

When you complete the square, you need to add the values to both sides of equation

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given equation of circle:</u></em>

x^2 + y^2 -14x + 2y -25 = 0

Let us first calculate center and radius and find out where he did the mistake

<em><u>Step 1:</u></em>

Group the terms

x^2 -14x + y^2 + 2y = 25\\\\(x^2 -14x) + (y^2 + 2y) = 25

<em><u>Step 2:</u></em>

(x^2 -14x + 49) + (y^2 + 2y + 1) = 25 + 49 + 1

But homers step 2 is:

(x^2 -14x + 49) + (y^2 + 2y + 1) = 25

So homer has made mistake in this step

When you complete the square, you need to add the values to both sides of equation

But homer did not add 49 and 1 to right side of equation

Correct steps are:

(x^2 -14x + 49) + (y^2 + 2y + 1) = 75\\\\(x-7)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 75

Comparing general equation of circle,

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

Therefore, center is ( 7, -1) and radius is 8.66

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS?!
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

a = 14

b = 24

c = 24.9

A = 33.2 degrees

B = 70 degrees

C = 76.8 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

14/sin(A) = 24/sin(70)

sin(A)×24 = sin(70)×14

sin(A) = sin(70)× 14/24 = sin(70) × 7/12 = 0.548154029...

A = asin(0.548154029...) = 33.240464... degrees

the sum of all angles in a triangle is airways 180 degrees.

C = 180 - 70 - 33.240464... = 76.75954... degrees

24/sin(70) = c/sin(76.75954...)

c = 24×sin(76.75954...)/sin(70) = 24.86133969...

If m&lt;7 is 2x + 30 and m&lt;28 is 3x - 10, find the<br> following:
topjm [15]

Answer:

x = 32

m∠7 = 94

m∠8 = 86

m∠3 = 94

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 30) + (3x - 10) = 180

5x + 20 = 180

5x = 160

x = 32

m∠7 = 2(32) + 30 = 94

m∠8 = 3(32) - 10 = 86

<u>or</u>

m∠8 = 180 - 94 = 86

<u>m∠3 ≈ m∠7</u> (corresponding angles)

Approximately 18% of the population of California is 70 years or older. In a random sample of 4, what is the provability for 3 o
Semmy [17]

Answer:

The correct response will be "0.01913".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

p - P(70 years or older)

= 0.18

n = 4

X = no. of individuals who are older than 70 years

Now,

∴ P(X=r)=n_C_r \ p^r(1-p)^{n-r}

∴ P(X=3)=4_C_3(0.18)^3(1-0.18)^{4-3}

                   =4\times (0.18)^3(0.82)^1

                   =0.01913

a diamond ring was reduced from $799.99 to $499.99 find the percent decrease in the price round the answer to the nearest tenth
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The price was reduced by about 53%

Step-by-step explanation:

Per cent of change = (amount of change) ÷ (original amount)

% change = (799.99 - 375.99)/799.99

= 424 / 799

= .5300

= 53 %
