Write x2 − 8x + 13 = 0 in the form (x − a)2 = b, where a and b are integers

1 answer:

3 0

X^2 - 8x + 13 = 0
subtract 13 from both sides
x^2 - 8x = -13
-8/2 = -4, (-4)^2 = 16, add 16 to both sides
x^2 - 8x + 16 = -13 + 16
factor the left side
(x - 4)^2 = 3

What is the difference between a confounding and a lurking variable?

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

A lurking variable is a variable that has an important effect on the relationship among the variables in the study, but is not one of the explanatory variables studied. Two variables are confounded when their effects on a response variable cannot be distinguished from each other.

Given the center of the circle (-3,4) and a point on the circle (-6,2), (10,4) is on the circle

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Part 1) False

Part 2) False

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the circle in standard form is equal to

$(x-h)^{2} +(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}$

where

(h,k) is the center and r is the radius

In this problem the distance between the center and a point on the circle is equal to the radius

The formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

Part 1) given the center of the circle (-3,4) and a point on the circle (-6,2), (10,4) is on the circle.

true or false

substitute the center of the circle in the equation in standard form

$(x+3)^{2} +(y-4)^{2}=r^{2}$

Find the distance (radius) between the center (-3,4) and (-6,2)

substitute in the formula of distance

$r=\sqrt{(2-4)^{2}+(-6+3)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{(-2)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{13}\ units$

The equation of the circle is equal to

$(x+3)^{2} +(y-4)^{2}=(\sqrt{13}){2}$

$(x+3)^{2} +(y-4)^{2}=13$

Verify if the point (10,4) is on the circle

we know that

If a ordered pair is on the circle, then the ordered pair must satisfy the equation of the circle

For x=10,y=4

substitute

$(10+3)^{2} +(4-4)^{2}=13$

$(13)^{2} +(0)^{2}=13$

$169=13$ -----> is not true

therefore

The point is not on the circle

The statement is false

Part 2) given the center of the circle (1,3) and a point on the circle (2,6), (11,5) is on the circle.

true or false

substitute the center of the circle in the equation in standard form

$(x-1)^{2} +(y-3)^{2}=r^{2}$

Find the distance (radius) between the center (1,3) and (2,6)

substitute in the formula of distance

$r=\sqrt{(6-3)^{2}+(2-1)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(1)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{10}\ units$

The equation of the circle is equal to

$(x-1)^{2} +(y-3)^{2}=(\sqrt{10}){2}$

$(x-1)^{2} +(y-3)^{2}=10$

Verify if the point (11,5) is on the circle

we know that

If a ordered pair is on the circle, then the ordered pair must satisfy the equation of the circle

For x=11,y=5

substitute

$(11-1)^{2} +(5-3)^{2}=10$

$(10)^{2} +(2)^{2}=10$

$104=10$ -----> is not true

therefore

The point is not on the circle

The statement is false
