Circle

Mathematics

Siras !  Don't try to picture this all in your head !
You'll wear out your brain.
You MUST sketch it on a piece of paper.
Draw an x-axis and a y-axis, then draw the two circles.

I'm drawing myself a picture right now, and I'm
supposed to be some kind of a genius.

a).  In order to move Circle-Q so that both centers are
at the same point, you need to move the center of Q
4 units down and 2 units to the right.
      When you do that, you'll have the little circle inside the
big circle, with their centers both at the same place.

b).  The radius of Q is 2.
       The radius of P is 20.
       What do you have to multiply 2 by, in order to get 20 ?
       THAT's the scale factor to dilate Q so that it has the same
radius as P.
       When you do that, suddenly it'll look like you only have one circle
on the paper ... they'll both have the same radius and their centers are
at the same place, so you can't tell them apart.

c).  All circles are similar !

I went online (you could easily go there too).  I searched the question
"Are circles similar ?" and a lot of interesting stuff came up.  (you could
do that too).  I saw a lot of ways to prove that all circles are similar. 
The best one says:

       Two figures are "similar" if you can make one of them
       exactly fit on top of the other one (make them congruent)
       with translations and dilations.

You just did that with P and Q !

-- Translation is moving them around.
   You moved Q and put the centers of both circles at the same place.

-- Dilation is blowing it up or blowing it down, so its size changes
but its shape doesn't change.
   You blew Q up so that it had the same radius as P.
   Then the two circles exactly fit over/under each other.

So the two circles are similar.

Which is one of the binomial factors of the polynomial x^3+3x-2x-8?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

A factor of a polynomial can be thought of as the value of x at which the polynomial is equal to zero.

So, you can use the values in the options given and put them in the polynomial from the question.

for example: try, part a) x-1, here x=1 since the factor is x-1=0

put this value in the polynomial to see if it results to zero.

(1)^3 + 3(1)^2 - 2(1) - 8\\ -6

so this isn't the answer.

now try, part d) x + 2, here, x = -2

(-2)^3 + 3(-2)^2 - 2(-2) - 8\\ 0

you'll see this is the factor!

There is a point $A$ with positive coordinates such that the sum of the coordinates of $A$ is $14$. If the $x$-coordinate of $A$
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

  5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  A = (a, 14-a)

  P = (3a, a^2 +13a -11)

  the slope of AP is 7

  a > 0

<u>Find</u>:

  a

<u>Solution</u>:

The slope of AP is ...

  m = (Py -Ay)/(Px -Ax)

  7 = (a^2 +13a -11 -(14 -a))/(3a -a)

  14a = a^2 +14a -25

  25 = a^2

  a = √25 = 5 . . . . . the positive solution

The value of 'a' is 5.

_____

<em>Check</em>

The point A is (a, 14-a) = (5, 9).

The point P is (3a, a^2 +13a -11) = (15, 79)

The slope of AP is (79 -9)/(15 -5) = 70/10 = 7.

Pls Help LOTS OF POINTS
Juliette [100K]

<h2><u>PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST!</u></h2>

Answer:

I don't know if this is right, but here goes nothing!

Step-by-step explanation:

It says (in small font) that the scale factor is 0.5. So that being said, what are the dilated coordinates of R?

If R is (1, 2), all we have to do is multiply both the x-value and the y-value by 0.5 to get our answer.

1  × 0.5 = \frac{1}{2}

2 × 0.5 = 1

So our answer is ( \frac{1}{2} , 1).

<h3>The coordinates of R', or the dilated form of R, are ( \frac{1}{2} , 1)</h3>

I hope this helps!
