Answer:

Option (C) Miguel's daily wage=$70

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be expressed as;

Total amount a week=Amount he earns per day×number of days he works in a week

where;

Total amount a week=$490

Amount her earns per day=x

Number of days in a week=7 days, since wages are paid weekly even on days that Miguel does not go to work, like weekends.

replacing;

490=x×7

x=490/7

x=70

Miguel's daily wage=$70

Answer:

$(x-230)^2+(y-220)^2=6100$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a circle is $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$ , where $(h,k)$ is the vertex of the circle and $r$ is the radius. Immediately, since the center of the circle is given, we know what $h$ and $k$ are. $h$ is 230 and $k$ is 220.

The only thing we need to find is the radius, which will just be the distance from the center (230,220) to a point on the circumference (170,170). The distance between them can be calculated using the <u>distance formula</u>, which is really just the <u>Pythagorean Theorem</u> rearranged. The formula states that $d=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$ , where $x$ is the change in the x-coordinates of the two points and $y$ is the change in the y-coordinates of the two points. Plug-in $x$ for 60 and $y$ for 50 to get $d=\sqrt{50^2+60^2}$ . Solve for $d$ , arriving at $\sqrt{6100}$ . Therefore, the radius of the circle is $\sqrt{6100}$ .

Finally, we have all of the components to create the equation of the circle. Plug-in 230 for $h$ , 220 for $k$ , and $\sqrt{6100}$ for $r$ .

The equation of the circle will be $(x-230)^2+(y-220)^2=6100$ .

Hope this helps :)

Calculate pt3 such that a line from pt1 to pt3 is perpendicular to the line from pt1 to pt2, and the distance between pt1 and pt

Leni [432]

Let the point_1 = p₁ = (1,4)
and      point_2 = p₂ = (-2,1)
and      Point_3 = p₃ = (x,y)

The line from point_1 to point_2 is L₁ and has slope = m₁
The line from point_1 to point_3 is L₂ and has slope = m₂
m₁ = Δy/Δx = (1-4)/(-2-1) = 1
m₂ = Δy/Δx = (y-4)/(x-1)
L₁⊥L₂ ⇒⇒⇒⇒ m₁ * m₂ = -1
∴ (y-4)/(x-1) = -1 ⇒⇒⇒ (y-4)= -(x-1)
(y-4) = (1-x) ⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒ equation (1)

The distance from point_1 to point_2 is d₁
The distance from point_1 to point_3 is d₂
d = $\sqrt{Δx^2+Δy^2}$
d₁ = $\sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(1-4)^2}$
d₂ = $\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-4)^2}$
d₁ = d₂
∴ $\sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(1-4)^2} = \sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-4)^2}$ ⇒⇒ eliminating the root
∴(-2-1)²+(1-4)² = (x-1)²+(y-4)²
(x-1)²+(y-4)² = 18
from equatoin (1) y-4 = 1-x
∴(x-1)²+(1-x)² = 18            ⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒ note: (1-x)² = (x-1)²
2 (x-1)² = 18
(x-1)² = 9
x-1 = $\pm \sqrt{9} = \pm 3$
∴ x = 4 or x = -2
∴ y = 1 or y = 7

Point_3 = (4,1) or (-2,7)
