Answer:

The answer is the option B

The circumcenter of triangle ABC is the point (3,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumcenter of a triangle, is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle meets

In this problem we have the coordinates of the triangle ABC

A(1,6) ,B(1,4),C(5,4)

Step 1

Find the slope of the side AB

The side AB is a vertical side (parallel to the y-axis)

The slope of the side AB is undefined

we know that

The perpendicular line to the side AB will be a horizontal line (parallel to the x-axis)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector to the side AB will be the y-coordinate of the midpoint AB

Step 2

Find the y-coordinate of midpoint AB

we know that

The formula to calculate the y-coordinate of the midpoint between two points is equal to

y=\frac{y1+y2}{2}

we have

A(1,6) ,B(1,4)

Substitute the values

y=\frac{6+4}{2}=5

therefore

The equation of the perpendicular bisector to the side AB is

y=5 ------> equation A

Step 3

Find the slope of the side BC

The side BC is a horizontal side (parallel to the x-axis)

The slope of the side BC is zero

we know that

The perpendicular line to the side BC will be a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector to the side BC will be the x-coordinate of the midpoint BC

Step 4

Find the x-coordinate of midpoint BC

we know that

The formula to calculate the x-coordinate of the midpoint between two points is equal to

x=\frac{x1+x2}{2}

we have

B(1,4),C(5,4)

Substitute the values

x=\frac{1+5}{2}=3

therefore

The equation of the perpendicular bisector to the side BC is

x=3 ------> equation B

Step 5

Find the circumcenter of triangle ABC

To calculate the circumcenter

Solve the system of equations compound by equation A and equation B

y=5 ------> equation A

x=3 ------> equation B

The intersection point is (3,5) -------> the circumcenter of triangle ABC

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

How many solutions are there to the equation below 15x+11=8x
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

There is one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

15x+11=8x

Subtract 15x from each side

15x-15x +11 = 8x-15x

11 = -7x

Divide by -7

11/-7 = -7x/-7

-11/7 =x

There is one solution

Rajans school is having a raffle. The school sold raffle tickets with 3-digits. Each digit is either 1,2,or 3. The school also s
belka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the school sold raffle tickets, and each ticket has a digit either 1, 2, or 3. The school also sold 2 tickets with the number 000.

Therefore we have the following raffle tickets:

123

132

213

231

312

321

000

000

From the given information, we can deduce that the school sold 8 tickets and only one ticket can contain the number arrangement of 123, but 000 appeared twice.

Probability of 123 to be picked=

1/8 => 0.125

Probability of 000 to be picked=

2/8 => 0.25

Since the probability of 000 to be picked is greater than 123, a ticket number of 000 is more likely to be picked

"Two planes leave the airport at the same time. Plane 1 travels just 9 miles east from
Vika [28.1K]
The answer is 41 miles


Imagine the diagonal distance is called c
Using Pythagorean theorem 40^2 + 9^2 = c^2
1600 + 81 = c^2
The square root of 1681 is 41
So c = 41
