A mom with four children decided she wanted to control how to divide up the amount of Halloween candy collected. She combined al

l their candy into one big bag and this was how she divided it… To the oldest child, a boy, she gave one candy bar and 1/4 of what remained; and to each of the other children she did the same. (Gave one candy bar + 1/4 of the rest) The second child was a girl, the third a boy, and the last a girl. It was found that the boys had received 100 more candy bars than the girls. What was the initial number of candy bars and how many did each person get?

Use the point-slope equation to identify the slope and the coordinates of a point
ioda

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

y - 4 = \frac{1}{2}(x - 1) ← is in point- slope form

with slope m = \frac{1}{2}

and (a, b) = (1, 4 ) ← point on the line

8x+x^2-2y-64+y^2=0 standard form with explanation
xz_007 [3.2K]
X² + 8x +y² - 2y -64 =0
We see that the equation has x² and y² . Also we see that coefficients in front of x² and y² are equal. So this is an equation of the circle.
(x² + 8x) +(y² - 2y) -64 =0
(x² + 8x) +(y² - 2y) = 64
We need to complete square for x and y groups, that means it should be written in form (a+b)² or (a-b)².
Expressions in parenthesis we will write as a²+/-2ab+b², to write it after as (a+/-b)², because  a²+/-2ab+b² = (a+/-b)²

(x² + 2*4x) +(y² - 2*1y) = 64
(x² + 2*4x+4²) +(y² - 2*1y+1²) = 64+4²+1²
(x+4)² + (y-1)²= 81 Sometimes this is called a standard form of the circle.
(x+4)² + (y-1)²= 9² Sometimes it is required to write like this.

And if you are studying circles,ellipses  and hyperbolas, the standard form should look like
\frac{(x+4)^{2}}{9^{2}} + \frac{(y-1)^{2}}{9^{2}} =1
