$2x^2+12x-14=0\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\x^2+6x-7=0\\\\x^2+2x\cdot3=7\ \ \ \ |add\ 3^2\ to\ both\ sides\\\\x^2+2x\cdot3+3^2=7+3^2\\\\(x+3)^2=7+9\\\\(x+3)^2=16\iff x+3=-\sqrt{16}\ or\ x+3=\sqrt{16}\\\\x+3=-4\ or\ x+3=4\\\\x=-4-3\ or\ x=4-3\\\\\boxed{x=-7\ or\ x=1}$

Does the point (-4, 2) lie inside or outside or on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 25?

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Given equation of the Circle is ,

$\sf\implies x^2 + y^2 = 25$

And we need to tell that whether the point (-4,2) lies inside or outside the circle. On converting the equation into Standard form and determinimg the centre of the circle as ,

$\sf\implies (x-0)^2 +( y-0)^2 = 5 ^2$

Here we can say that ,

• Radius = 5 units

• Centre = (0,0)

Finding distance between the two points :-

$\sf\implies Distance = \sqrt{ (0+4)^2+(2-0)^2} \\\\\sf\implies Distance = \sqrt{ 16 + 4 } \\\\\sf\implies Distance =\sqrt{20}\\\\\sf\implies\red{ Distance = 4.47 }$

Here we can see that the distance of point from centre is less than the radius.

Hence the point lies within the circle .
