keep the whole number and then take the 5 and divide by 8

5 divided by 8 is .625

so put the whole number

12.625

Find the equation of the circle that is shifted 5 units to the left and 2 units down from the circle with the equation x^2+y^2=1

marysya [2.9K]

Shifting a circle results to changes in the coordinates of the circle. For instance, if the coordinates of the center of the circle is taken to be (0,0), the new coordinates will be [(0+5),(0+2)] after shifting. The equation of the circle will also change with the same margin.

That is, the new equation will be;
(5+x)^2+(2+y)^2 =19

Notice, only the coordinates changes.

Which equation has a graph that goes through the points (4, -6) and (0, 6)?

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$y = -3x + 6\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the gradient of the equation

$\frac{Difference in y}{Difference in x} \\\\\frac{6 - - 6}{0 - 4} = \frac{12}{-4} = -3$

The equation will have the gradient -3x

Use the general equation of a line, and substitute the coordinates in to find the y-intercept.

$y = x + c\\ y = -3x + c\\$

(4, -6)

$-6 = -3(4) + c\\ -6 = -12 + c\\ -6 + 12 = c\\ c = 6$ $6 = -3(0) + c\\ 6 = 0 + c\\ c = 6$

(0, 6)

$6 = -3(0) + c\\ 6 = -0 + c\\ c = 6$

The equation of the line is

$y = -3x + 6\\$

The mass of the particles that a river can transport is proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river. A certain riv

kari74 [83]

The river flows at 2 miles per hour. This is the speed of the current, or the speed at which the water itself is moving.

The mass of the particles moving in river is proportional to the sixth power of 2, or $2^6 = 64$ miles per hour. So, if x is the mass of the particle, then the speed is modeled by an inverse relationship $x * 2^6 = k$ , for some constant k.

For particles that are 15 times the usual mass, the speed of the river itself must increase for the particles to travel at the same speed as before. The mass of the particles is still proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river, but the speed of the river can no longer be 2 miles per hour. It is some speed y, which we are solving for.

So, the key here is proportional. We can set up two proportions and cross multiply.

$\dfrac{x}{2^6} = \dfrac{15x}{y^6} \\ (x)(y^6)=(2^6)(15x)$

Cancelling our x's (because we don't need to solve for them), we have

$y^6 = 15(2^6) = 15(64)=960$

To solve for y, we must take the sixth root of both sides, or raise both sides to the one-sixth power.

$\sqrt[6]{y^6} = \sqrt[6]{960}$

Using a calculator, we see that $\sqrt[6]{960} = 3.14 \ miles \ per \ hour$ .
