Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you multiply and irrational by a rational, you are doing nothing to change the nature of an irrational number. The two numbers have different kinds of properties and though a multiplication can be indicated, there is no way you can change the properties of an irrational number with a rational.

Their properties just do not mix.

It is like take a solvent and mixing it with something that is not a solvent. You cannot do anything to anything to the insolvent to make it solvent simply by adding more. Their properties remain in tact.

Take 3 * 4√7

The properties of the 3 and 4 remain the same when multiplied and they can be combined. 3*4 = 12

But nothing can be done with √7. The 3 cannot effect it, anymore than what the 4 did.

x^2 + y^2 + 2x - 6y + 1 = 0

x^2 +2x + 1 + y^2 - 6y = 0

x^2 + 2( x × 1) + 1^2 + y^2 - 2(y×3) + 3^2 -3^2 =0

(x+1)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 3^2

comparing with circle equation

(x-a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

where (a , b) is centre of circle.

so we get center of circle is

(-1, 3)
