Answer: The value of x is 155/79.

Step-by-step explanation:

13(6x -5 )-x= 13 -2(x +1)

78x - 65- x = 13 -2x -2

77x -65 = 11-2x  

79x -65 =11

79x =76

x = 76/79    76/ 79 + 1/1  = 155/79

find the equation of a circle which passes through the point (2,-2) and (3,4) and whose centre lies on the line x+y=2
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Equation of the circle

(x - 0.7)² + (y - 1.3)² = 12.58

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the equation of a circle is given as:

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²,

where(a, b) is the center of the circle and r = radius of the circle.

a) We are told in the question that the equation of the circle passes through point(2, -2)

Hence,

Substituting 2 for x and -2 for y in the equation of the circle.

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

(2 - a)² +(-2 - b)² = r²

Expanding the bracket

(2 - a) (2 - a) + (-2 - b)(-2 - b) = r²

4 - 2a - 2a +a² +4 +2b +2b +b² = r²

4 - 4a + a² + 4 + 4b + b² = r²

a² + b² -4a + 4b + 4 + 4 = r²

a² + b² -4a + 4b + 8 = r²............Equation 1

We are also told that the equation of the circle also passes through point (3,4) also, where 3 = x and 4 = y

Hence,

Substituting 3 for x and 4 for y in the equation of the circle.

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

(3 - a)² +(4 - b)² = r²

Expanding the bracket

(3 - a) (3 - a) + (4 - b)(4- b) = r²

9 - 3a - 3a +a² +16 -4b -4b +b² = r²

9 -6a + a² + 16 -8b + b² = r²

a² + b² -6a -8b + 9 + 16 = r²

a² + b² -6a -8b + 25 = r²..........Equation 2

The next step would be to subtract Equation 1 from Equation 2

a² + b² -4a + 4b + 8 - (a² + b² -6a -8b + 25) = r² - r²

a² + b² -4a + 4b + 8 - a² - b² +6a +8b - -25= r² - r²

Collecting like terms

a² - a² + b² - b² - 4a + 6a + 4b + 8b +8- 25 = 0

2a + 12b -17 = 0

2a + 12b = 17...........Equation 3

Step 2

We are going to have to find the values of a and b in other to get our equation of the circle.

Since the center of the circle(a, b) lies on x + y = 2

Therefore, we have

a + b = 2

a = 2 - b

2a + 12b = 17 ..........Equation 3

Substituting 2 - b for a in

2(2 - b) + 12b = 17

4 - 2b + 12b = 17

4 + 10b = 17

10b = 17 - 4

10b = 13

b = 13/10

b = 1.3

Substituting 1.3 for b in

a + b = 2

a + 1.3 = 2

a = 2 - 1.3

a = 0.7

hence, a = 0.7, b = 1.3

Step 3

We have to find the value of r using points (2, -2)

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

Where x = 2 and y = -2

(-2 - 0.7)² + (-2 - 1.3)² = r²

(-2.7)² + (-3.3)² = r²

1.69 + 10.89 = r²

r² = 12.58

r = √12.58 = 3.55

Step 4

The formula for the equation of a circle is given as:

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²,

where(a, b) is the center of the circle and r = radius of the circle

a = 0.7

b = 1.3

r² = 12.58

Equation of the circle =

(x - 0.7)² + (y - 1.3)² = 12.58

Ricky has 3/4 of a bag of Skittles. He wants to split the rest between between his 5 friends. What fraction of the bag will each
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

  • 3/20, with the assumptions below.

Explanation:

The question seems incomplete.

In order to show you the procedure, I make some assumptions.

Assuming that Ricky wants to split the full content of the 3/4 of a bag between his 5 friends, to find what fraction of the bag will each friend receive you must divide 3/4 by 5.

The operation is:

        \dfrac{3}{4}\div 5

Convert the whole number 5 into fraction using 1 as denominator:

       \dfrac{3}{4}\div \dfrac{5}{1}

Transform the division into multiplication changing the divisor into its reciprocal:

       \dfrac{3}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{5}

Multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator:

       \dfrac{3\times 1}{4\times 5}=\dfrac{3}{20}\leftarrow answer

Karen went to the farmers market
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

6 papayas and 11 pineapples

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we need to find an answer of how many papayas and pineapples she bought, and we only spent $48.

So,  papayas are $2.50 each, and Pineapples are $3.00 each and we only bought 17 fruits total.

lets try 8 papayas, and 9 Pineapples.

$2.50 x 8 = $20.00 total on Papayas

$3.00 x 9 = $27.00 total on Pineapples.

That would only be $47 spent total.

Lets try 10 papayas and 7 pineapples.

$2.50 x 10 = $25.00

$3.00 x 7 = $21.00

That would only be a total of $26 spent.

Lets try 6 papayas and 11 pineapples.

$2.50 x 6 = $15.00

$3.00 x 11 = $33.00

This would be a total of $48 spent.

Please help me i rlly need help
Mumz [18]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line with points; (2, 5) (3, 8).

1. Find the slope of the given line

The formula for finding the slope is:

\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1}}

Substitute in the values;

x_{1} = 2\\y_{1} = 5\\x_{2} = 3\\y_{2} = 8

\frac{8-5}{3-2}

simplify;

\frac{3}{1}

= 3

2. Find the slope of the parallel line;

Remember, when two lines are parallel, they run alongside each other, of infinitely long, but they never touch. Hence two parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of a line that is parallel to the given one will also have the same slope as the given one, which is 3.

Solve for x.<br><br> (x−2)^2+2=38<br><br> x= ___ or x= ___
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

x  \: = \:  \boxed{ \bold{  - 4  }}\:    \:    \text{or} \:   \: x \:  = \:  \boxed{ \bold{ 8}}

Step-by-step explanation:

(x \:  -  \: 2 {)}^{2}  \:  +  \: 2 \:  =  \: 38

{x}^{2}  \:  -  \: 4x \:  +  \: 4 \:  +  \: 2 \:  =  \: 38

{x}^{2}  \:  -  \: 4x \:  +  \: 6 \:  =  \: 38

{x}^{2}  \:  -  \: 4x \:  +  \: 6 \:  -  \: 38 \:  =  \: 0

{x}^{2}  \:  +  \: 4x \:  -  \: 8x \:  -  \: 32 \:  =  \: 0

x \:  \times  \: (x \:  +  \: 4) \:  -  \: 8(x \:  +  \: 4) \:  =  \: 0

(x \:  +  \: 4) \:   \times  \: (x \:  -  \: 8) \:  =  \: 0

  • When it happens that the product of the factors is the same as zero. It is divided into two possible cases.

x \:  +  \: 4 \:  =  \: 0 \\ x \:  -  \: 8 \:  =  \: 0

  • We solve the two equations:

x \:  =  \:  - 4 \\ x \:  =  \: 8

<h2>Answer: </h2>

x \:  =  \:  - 4 \\ x \:  =  \: 8
