Madam Siti bought the same lengths of red and yellow ribbons. After she used 836 cm of the red ribbon, the length of the yellow
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer: 1045 cm of red ribbon and 1045 cm of yellow ribbon

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let R represent the amount red ribbon and Y represent the amouont of yellow ribbon.

  • bought the same lengths of red and yellow: R = Y
  • after used 286 of red, yellow is 5 times the remaining red; 5(R - 836) = Y

Use substitution method to solve:

5(R - 836) = R

5R - 4180 = R   <em>distributed 5 on the left side</em>

4R - 4180 = 0   <em>subtracted R from both sides</em>

4R = 4180         <em>added 4180 to both sides</em>

R = 1045         <em>divided both sides by 4</em>

2. Consider the circle x^2−4x+y^2+10y+13=0. There are two lines tangent to this circle having a slope of 2/3.
likoan [24]

Answer:

a) The coordinates are (0.431, -2.646) and (3.568,-7.354)

b) The tangent lines are

l₁ = (x-0.431)*2/3 - 2.646

l₂ = (x-3.568)2/3 - 7.354

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets complete squares, by taking for each cordinate the square of a linear expression

0= x²−4x+y²+10y+13 = (x-2)²+ 4  + (y+5)²-25+13 = (x-2)²+(y+5)² - 8

Hence (x-2)² + (y+5)² = 8

Lets put y in function of x. We should obtain 2 functions f and g that represent the circle.

(y+5)² = 8 - (x-2)² = -x² + 4x + 4

y = ^+_- \sqrt{-x^2+4x+4} -5

Thus

f(x) = \sqrt{-x^2+4x+4} - 5

g(x) = -\sqrt{-x^2+4x+4} - 5

Lets find the derivate of each function and the points in which they reach the value 2/3. In those points the tangent line will have a slope of 2/3.

We may just find the values of x which the derivate of f is either 2/3 or -2/3.

\frac{-x+2}{\sqrt{-x^2+4x+4}} = ^+_-\frac{2}{3} \Leftrightarrow \frac{x^2-4x+4}{-x^2+4x+4} = \frac{4}{9} \Leftrightarrow 9(x^2-4x+4) = 4(-x^2+4x+4) \\\Leftrightarrow 13x^2-52x+20 = 0

The quadratic has roots

\frac{52 ^+_-\sqrt{1664}}{26}

one root is 3.568, which corresponds with g, and the other root is 0.431, corresponding to f.

Also g(3.568) = - 7.354 and f(0.431) = -2.646

This means that the coordinates are (0.431 , -2.646), (3.568 , -7.354) and the tangent lines are

l₁ = (x-0.431)*2/3 - 2.646

l₂ = (x-3.568)2/3 - 7.354

hawnda incorrectly found the distance between -26 and 25 by following these steps: Step 1: |25 – (-26)| Step 2: |25 – 26| Step 3
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 2 is not correct. It should be abs(25 - - 26) = abs(25 + 26) = 51

Given that Step 2 is accepted (as - 1) then three is OK and and so is 4. But technically they are incorrect as well. I think you are likely to say that step 2 is the problem.
