Someone help me with this geometry homework !!!!!! 10 points!

Reil [10]

Answer: 3a = (0, 1) 3b = (2, 1) 3c = (2.5, 1) 3d = (1.6, 1)

4a = (2, 3.5) 4b = (2, 3) 4c = (2, 5.375)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The length of AB is 6 and is horizontal (affects the x-coordinate)

$3a)\quad 6\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)\quad =3\qquad \qquad A(-2, 1) +(3, 0)= C(1,1)\\\\\\3b)\quad 6\bigg(\dfrac{2}{3}\bigg)\quad =4\qquad \qquad A(-2, 1) +(4,0)= C(2,1)\\\\\\3c)\quad 6\bigg(\dfrac{3}{4}\bigg)\quad =\dfrac{9}{2}\qquad \qquad A(-2, 1) +(4.5,0)= C(2.5,1)$

$3d)\quad 6\bigg(\dfrac{3}{5}\bigg)\quad =\dfrac{18}{5}\qquad \qquad A(-2, 1) +(3.6,0)= C(1.6,1)$

***********************************************************************************

The length of AB is 5 and is vertical (affects the y-coordinate)

$4a)\quad 5\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)\quad =\dfrac{5}{2}\qquad \qquad A(2, 1) +(0,2.5)= C(2,3.5)\\\\\\4b)\quad 5\bigg(\dfrac{2}{5}\bigg)\quad =2\qquad \qquad A(2, 1) +(0,2)= C(2,3)\\\\\\4c)\quad 5\bigg(\dfrac{7}{8}\bigg)\quad =\dfrac{35}{8}\qquad \qquad A(2, 1) +(0,4.375)= C(2,5.375)$

Solve the following system by any method -8x-8y=0 -8x+2y=-20

iVinArrow [24]

$\fbox{Solution by using Matrix}$

$\text{Linear Equation} = -8x-8y=0 , -8x+2y=-20$

$\text{Rewrite the linear equations above as a matrix}$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8&-8&0\\-8&2&-20\\\end{array}\right]$

$\text{Apply to Row2 : Row2 + Row1}$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8&-8&0\\-8&-6&-20\\\end{array}\right]$

$\text{ Simplify rows}$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8&-8&0\\0&1&10/3\\\end{array}\right]$

$\text{Note: The matrix is now in echelon form.}$ $\text{The steps below are for back substitution.}$

$\text{Apply to Row1 : Row1 + 8 Row2}$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}8&0&80/30\\0&1&10/3\\\end{array}\right]$

$\text{ Simplify rows}$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&10/3\\0&1&10/3\\\end{array}\right]$

$\text{Therefore, the solution is}$

$x= \dfrac{10}{3} \ \text{and} \ \ y=\dfrac{10}{3}$

A business consultant earns a flat fee for his work as well as an hourly fee. He charges his clients at a rate of $75 per hour.

gregori [183]

The answer would be D. y=75x+300 because if you multiply 75 and 20 you would get 1500 and subtract 1800 for how much was paid and 1500 for the result of multiplying 75 and 20
Answer is D. y=75x+300

The center of the circle is at (-2,-7) and its radius is 36.

Vanyuwa [196]

Standard form for circle with radius r and center (h,k) is
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

r=36
center at -2,-7
(x-(-2))^2+(y-(-7))^2=36^2
(x+2)^2+(y+7)^2=1296
