Find an equation of the circle and sketch it if it has: Center on y=4, tangent x-axis at (–2, 0)

Answer:

(x+2)^2+(y-4)^2=16

OK, lets start by drawing a basic graph (the first one) so we can visualize.

We already know that the y coordinate of the circle's center is 4.

We know that the circle is tangent to the X axis at (-2,0)

That means the x coordinate of the center has to be -2, as the tangent is a point on the edge of the circle that touches a line at exactly one point.

The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to its edge. We know the center's location now, it is (-2, 4) and a point on the edge of the circle (the tangent point) which is (-2,0). so the distance between the points is 4 which is the radius (you can use the distance formula, but it's quite oblivious.)

We can imagine the circle should look like this (the second one):

Now we can piece together an equation

The equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius. When we put the numbers in: we get (x-(-2))^2+(y-(4))^2=4^2 which can be simplified into (x+2)^2+(y-4)^2=16 which is the answer.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The margin of error for the survey is 0.016

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 1024

Sample proportion:

\hat{p} = 89\% = 0.89

We have to find the margin of error associated with a 90% Confidence interval.

Formula for margin of error:

z_{stat}\times \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = 1.64

Putting the values, we get:

M.E = 1.64\times (\sqrt{\dfrac{0.89(1-0.89)}{1024}})\\\\M.E=0.016

Thus, the margin of error for the survey is 0.016

∫(x+1)/(x2+2)2x−3​dx need help with this question. can you show the process​
kenny6666 [7]

do you need to include the wiggle infront of the first bracket? if not;

(x+1) ÷ [(x^2+2) x (2x-3dx)]

x^2 x 2x = 2x^3

x^2 x -3dx = -3dx^3

2 x 2x = 4x

2 x -3dx = - 6dx

i cant find a way to make it equal 0 so i think the answer is just

x+1 over 2x^3 - 3dx^3 + 4x - 6dx as a fraction
