The smallest region that can be photographed is
5*7 = 35 square km
so we want to know how long it takes to zoom out to an area of
35 * 5 = 175 square km.

Notice that the length and width increase at the same rate, 2 km/sec, and they start out with a difference of two, so when the width has increased from 5 to x, the length will have increased from 7 to x+2. At the desired coverage area, then,
x(x+2) = 175
x^2 + 2x = 175
x^2 + 2x + 1 = 176 [completing the square]
(x+1)^2 = 176
x+1 = ±4√11
x = -1 ±4√11

Since a negative value for x is meaningless here, x must be
-1 + 4√11 = about 12.27 km
and the time it took to increast to that value was
(12.27 - 5) km / (2 km/sec) = about 3.63 seconds

Consider a circle whose equation is x2 + y2 – 2x – 8 = 0. Which statements are true? Select three options.

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The first, second, and fifth statements are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a circle with the equation:

$x^2+y^2-2x-8=0$

And we want to select the statements that are true.

First, we can convert the equation into standard form. We can group each variable:

$(x^2-2x)+(y^2)=8$

And complete the square for the first term:

$(x^2-2x+1)+(y^2)=8+1$

Factor and simplify:

$(x-1)^2+y^2=9$

We can rewrite our equation as:

$(x-(1))^2+(y-(0))^2=(3)^2$

So, this tells us that we have a circle centered on (1, 0) with a radius of 3 units.

In this case, the first statement, second statement (the point (1,0) is on the x-axis), and fifth statements are correct (the square root of 9 is also 3).
