Answer:

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

The centre is at the midpoint of the endpoints of the diameter, that is

x = \frac{6-2}{2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2 and y = \frac{5+3}{2} = \frac{8}{2} = 4

centre = (2, 4 )

The radius is the distance from the centre to either of the endpoints

Using the distance formula to find r

r = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 2, 3)

r = \sqrt{(-2-2)^2+(3-4)^2}

  = \sqrt{(-4)^2+(-1)^2}

  = \sqrt{16+1}

  = \sqrt{17} ⇒ r² = 17

Thus the equation of the circle is

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = 17

What is 4(x-7)=2(x+3)?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

4(x−7)=2(x+3)

Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(x−7)=2(x+3)

4x+−28=2x+6

4x−28=2x+6

Subtract 2x from both sides.

4x−28−2x=2x+6−2x

x−28=6

Add 28 to both sides.

2x−28+28=6+28

2x=34

Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2  =  34/2

x = 17

lukranit [14]
Point v is graphed on a number line at -6...point u is 8 units away from v....notice that it doesn't say which way....so it can go either way....so we need to find 8 units away from -6 in both directions

-6 + 8 = 2
-6 - 8 = -14

so point u can be either at 2 or at -14...ur answers are A and D

I need help with this problem, if anyone could help ASAP, that would be much appreciated. In the figure below, mROP = 125° Find
netineya [11]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

mROP= 125°

mSOQ= mROP= 125°

mROQ=mPOS= 180°-125°= 55°

<u>Sum of measures of all arcs in the circle= 2π</u>

mRP= mQS=2π*125/360=25/36π

mQR=mPS=2π*55/360=11/36π

mPRQ= half circle= 2π/2= π

mRPQ= 2π-mQR= 2π- 11/36π= 61/36π
