Which is an equation of a circle with center (-10, 6) and radius 8?

kupik [55]

An equation of a circle:

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

(a; b) - a coordinates of a center
r - a radius

r = 8; (-10; 6) ⇒ a = -10 and b = 6

subtitute

(x - (-10))² + (y - 6)² = 8²

Answer: (x + 10)² + (y - 6)² = 64

The guidance department has reported that of the senior class, 2.3% are members of key club, K, 8.6% are enrolled in AP physics,

Levart [38]

P(P|K) = 82.6%.

P(P|K) = P(K and P)/P(K) = 1.9%/2.3% = 0.019/0.023 = 0.8261 = 82.6%

A) what is average rate of change of f(x) over the interval from x=5 to x=9? (table shows values of f(x). graph shows function o

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

See below for answers and explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

The average rate of change of a function over the interval $[a,b]$ is equal to $\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$ , hence:

$\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\\\\frac{f(9)-f(5)}{9-5}\\\\\frac{14-(-4)}{9-5}\\ \\\frac{14+4}{4}\\ \\\frac{18}{4}\\ \\\frac{9}{2}$

Therefore, the average rate of change of $f(x)$ over the interval $[5,9]$ is $\frac{9}{2}$ .

<u>Part B</u>

Do the same thing as in Part A:

$\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\ \\\frac{f(1)-f(0.25)}{1-0.25}\\ \\\frac{2-5}{0.75}\\ \\\frac{-3}{0.75}\\ \\-4$

Therefore, the average rate of change of $g(x)$ over the interval $[0.25,1]$ is $-4$ .

<u>Part C</u>

To interpret our answer from Part B in terms of the real world it represents, we say that between 0.25 seconds and 1 second, the ball falls at a rate of 4 feet per second (since our average rate of change is negative).
