What is the value of a for the following circle in general form?<br> x2 + y² + ax + by+c=0
motikmotik

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x2+y2+ax+by+c=0

Step 1: Add -by to both sides.

ax+by+x2+y2+c+−by=0+−by

ax+x2+y2+c=−by

Step 2: Add -x^2 to both sides.

ax+x2+y2+c+−x2=−by+−x2

ax+y2+c=−bax+y2+c+−y2=−by−x2+−y2

ax+c=−by−x2−y2

Step 4: Add -c to both sides.

ax+c+−c=−by−x2−y2+−c

ax=−by−x2−y2−c

Step 5: Divide both sides by x.

ax

x

=

−by−x2−y2−c

x

a=

−by−x2−y2−c

x

y−x2

I have 10 goats, n of which are male. I need to choose 2 of them to make a casserole.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer: There are 4 male goats.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that n of the 10 goats are male.

The probability that in a random selection, the selected goat is a male, is equal to the quotient between the number of male goats (n) and the total number of goats (10)

The probability is;

p = n/10

Now the total number of goats is 9, and the number of male goats is n -1

then the probability of selecting a male goat again is:

q = (n-1)/9

The joint probability (the probability that the two selected goats are male) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, this is

P = p*q = (n/10)*((n-1)/9)

And we know that this probability is equal to 2/15

Then we have:

(n/10)*((n-1)/9) = 2/15

(n*(n-1))/90 = 2/15

n*(n-1) = 90*2/15 = 12

n^2 - n = 12

n^2 - n - 12  = 0

This is a quadratic equation, we can find the solutions if we use Bhaskara's formula:

For an equation:

a*x^2  + b*x + c =  0

The two solutions are given by:

x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2*a}

For our case, the solutions will be:

n = \frac{1 +- \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4*1*(-12)} }{2*1 } = \frac{1+- 7}{2}

The two solutions are:

n = (1 - 7)/2 = -3    (this solution does not make sense, we can not have a negative number of goats)

The other solution is:

n = (1 + 7)/2 = 4

This solution does make sense, this means that we have 4 male goats.
