Answer : B. line 3

5(x-5)=15 ----> 1

We remove the parenthesis by distributing 5 inside the parenthesis.

 5x - 25 = 15 ----> 2

To get rid of -25, add 25 on both sides

5x - 25 + 25 = 15 + 25 ----> 3

5x = 40  ----> 4

Divide by 5 on both sides

x = 8  

From the given options we can see that there is a error in line 3.

Instead of adding 25 , they subtracted 25

So line 3 shows the first error.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (2, –1) and (6, 1)? A.y=1/2x -2 B.y=2x-5 C.y=-1/2x-1 D. y=-2x-3
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

option A.

y = (1/2)x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, line that passes through the points (2, –1) and (6, 1)

Slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

 = (1 - -1)/(6 - 2)

 = (1 + 1)/4 = 2/4

 = 1/2

<u>To find the equation of the line</u>

Equation of a line passing through the points (x₁, y₁)  and  slope  m is given by,

(y - y₁)/(x - x) = m

Here (x₁, y₁) = (2, -1) and m = 1/2

(y - -1)/(x - 2) = 1/2

(y + 1) = (x - 2)/2

y = -1 + x/2 - 2/2

  =  -1 + x/2 - 1

 = x/2 - 2

The equation of the line is,

y = (1/2)x - 2

The correct answer is option A.

y = (1/2)x - 2

A bookmark has a perimeter of 46 centimeters and an area of 102 square centimeters. What are the dimensions of the bookmark?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

  6 cm by 17 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is the product of the dimensions; the perimeter is double the sum of the dimensions.

So, we want to find two numbers whose product is 102 and whose sum is 23.

  102 = 1·102 = 2·51 = 3·34 = 6·17

The last of these factor pairs has a sum of 23.

The dimensions are 6 cm by 17 cm.

A circle has a center at 4 – 5i and a point on the circle at 19 – 13i. Which of the following points is also on the circle? –11
TiliK225 [7]

To solve the problem we must know about the equation of a circle and complex numbers.

<h2>Equation of circle</h2>

Radius² = (Distance between the center and any point on the circle)²

Radius = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

<h2>Complex Number </h2>

Complex Number, z = (x +iy)

Another point that will lay on the same circle is (12 + 10i).

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Given to us

  • center = (4 – 5i)
  • point on the circle = (19 – 13i)

Solution

We know that equation for a circle can be written as,

<h3>Radius of the Circle </h3>

Radius of the Circle

= √(Distance between the center and any point on the circle)²

Radius of the Circle = √[4-19]²+[-5 -(-13)]²

                                 = √[-15]²+[8]²

                                 = √225 + 64

                                 = √225 + 64

                                 = √289

                                 = 17

Now compare the distance between the center of the circle and the points.

<h3>Comparison</h3>

A.)  –11 –3i

Distance between the center and point on the circle

= √[4-(-11)]² + [-5 - (-3)]²

= √[15]² + [-2]²

= √225 + 4

= √229

B.)  –4. 5+3. 5i

Distance between the center and point on the circle

= √[4-(-4.5)]² + [-5 - (3.5)]²

= √[9.5]² + [-8.5]²

= √90.25+ 72.25

= √162.5

C.)  12 + 10i

Distance between the center and point on the circle

= √[4-(12)]² + [-5 - (10)]²

= √[-8]² + [-15]²

= √64+ 225

= √289

= 17

D.)  21 + 12i.

Distance between the center and point on the circle

= √[4-(21)]² + [-5 - (12)]²

= √[17]² + [-17i]²

= √289+ 289

= √578

Hence, another point that will lay on the same circle is (12 + 10i).
