The blueprints for a police station show that one of the lamp posts has a motion detector on it, and that the equation (x+14)2+(

y−6)2=9 describes the boundary within which motion can be sensed. What is the greatest distance, in feet, a person could be from the lamp and be detected?

Answer: 3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The blueprints for a police station show that one of the lamp posts has a motion detector on it, and that the equation describes the boundary within which motion can be sensed. :

(x+14)^2+(y-6)^2=9 → which is a equation of a CIRCLE.

When we compare it to the standard form of equation of circle i.e. (x-(-14))^2+(y-6)^2=3^2 , we get the radius of the circle = 3

Consider the lamp post as the center of the area covered by the detector.

Then the greatest distance a person could be from the lamp and be detected = Radius of the circular area

=3 feet.

If a quadratic function has x-intercepts at (-7,0) and 10,0), where would
madam [21]

Answer:

x = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the axis of symmetry is between the 2 x intercepts, we can find it by finding the average of the x-coordinates of the 2 points.

(-7 + 10) / 2

3/2

= 1.5

So, the axis of symmetry is at x = 1.5

Which system of equations has the same solution as the system below?
worty [1.4K]

Answer: Both A, and C

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to the first system of equations (2x+2y=16) would be

x=3 and y=5 ( 3x-y=4 )

Which means we have to find out which of the other equations has an x value of 3, and a y value of 5.

If A is 2x+2y=16, then x=3 and y=5

           6x-2y=8

If B is x+y=16, then x=5 and y=11

         3x-y=4

If C is 2x+2y=16, then x=3 and y=5

           6x-2y=8

If D is 6x+6y=48 , then x=-2 and y=10

            6x+2y=8

Both A and C are equal to the first system of equations, which means they are both correct answers.
