Answer:

  C:  y+7=2/5(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...

  y -k = m(x -h)

You are given m=2/5 and (h, k) = (-4, -7). Put these numbers into the form and simplify the signs:

  y -(-7) = 2/5(x -(-4)) . . . . . numbers put into the form

  y +7 = 2/5(x +4) . . . . . . . signs simplified . . . . matches choice C

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle can be the expanded form of

\large \text{$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2$}(x−a)

2

+(y−b)

2

=r

2

where rr is the radius of the circle, (a,\ b)(a, b) is the center of the circle, and (x,\ y)(x, y) is a point on the circle.

Here, the equation of the circle is,

\begin{gathered}\begin{aligned}&x^2+y^2+10x-4y-20&=&\ \ 0\\ \\ \Longrightarrow\ \ &x^2+y^2+10x-4y+25+4-49&=&\ \ 0\\ \\ \Longrightarrow\ \ &x^2+y^2+10x-4y+25+4&=&\ \ 49\\ \\ \Longrightarrow\ \ &x^2+10x+25+y^2-4y+4&=&\ \ 49\\ \\ \Longrightarrow\ \ &(x+5)^2+(y-2)^2&=&\ \ 7^2\end{aligned}\end{gathered}

From this, we get two things:

\begin{gathered}\begin{aligned}1.&\ \ \textsf{Center of the circle is $(-5,\ 2)$.}\\ \\ 2.&\ \ \textsf{Radius of the circle is $\bold{7}$ units. }\end{aligned}\end{gathered}

1.

2.

Center of the circle is (−5, 2).

Radius of the circle is 7 units.

Hence the radius is 7 units.

Find the point on the parabola y^2 = 4x that is closest to the point (2, 8).
guapka [62]

Answer:

(4, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to go at this:

  1. Write an expression for the distance from a point on the parabola to the given point, then differentiate that and set the derivative to zero.
  2. Find the equation of a normal line to the parabola that goes through the given point.

1. The distance formula tells us for some point (x, y) on the parabola, the distance d satisfies ...

... d² = (x -2)² +(y -8)² . . . . . . . the y in this equation is a function of x

Differentiating with respect to x and setting dd/dx=0, we have ...

... 2d(dd/dx) = 0 = 2(x -2) +2(y -8)(dy/dx)

We can factor 2 from this to get

... 0 = x -2 +(y -8)(dy/dx)

Differentiating the parabola's equation, we find ...

... 2y(dy/dx) = 4

... dy/dx = 2/y

Substituting for x (=y²/4) and dy/dx into our derivative equation above, we get

... 0 = y²/4 -2 +(y -8)(2/y) = y²/4 -16/y

... 64 = y³ . . . . . . multiply by 4y, add 64

... 4 = y . . . . . . . . cube root

... y²/4 = 16/4 = x = 4

_____

2. The derivative above tells us the slope at point (x, y) on the parabola is ...

... dy/dx = 2/y

Then the slope of the normal line at that point is ...

... -1/(dy/dx) = -y/2

The normal line through the point (2, 8) will have equation (in point-slope form) ...

... y - 8 = (-y/2)(x -2)

Substituting for x using the equation of the parabola, we get

... y - 8 = (-y/2)(y²/4 -2)

Multiplying by 8 gives ...

... 8y -64 = -y³ +8y

... y³ = 64 . . . . subtract 8y, multiply by -1

... y = 4 . . . . . . cube root

... x = y²/4 = 4

The point on the parabola that is closest to the point (2, 8) is (4, 4).

Please help me to find the answer Y=2X 3X+4Y=22 Y=2X 3X+4Y=22 ​
RSB [31]
<h3>System of equations.</h3>

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=2x&(1)\\3x+4y=22&(2)\end{array}\right

Put (1) to (2):

3x+4(2x)=22\\3x+8x=22\\11x=22\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 11}\\\boxed{x=2}

Substitute the value of x to (1):

y=2\cdot2\\\boxed{y=4}

Solution:

\huge\boxed{\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x=2\\y=4\end{array}\right}
