So, pretend this is your x-axis and y-axis:
I
I
(-2,7) • I
I
I • (2, 5)
I
I
I
I
_________________I____________________
I
I
I
TO GET FROM POINT (-2, 7) TO POINT (2, 5), WE MOVE DOWN 2 AND OVER 4, SO THE SLOPE IS -1/2. IF WE FOLLOW THAT SLOPE AND MOVE DOWN 1 AND OVER 2 FROM THE FIRST POINT OF (-2, 7), WE WILL LAND ON A POINT LOCATED AT (0, 6), WHICH WOULD BE THE "Y-INTERCEPT". WE WERE JUST ABLE TO CALCULATE THE SLOPE OF THE LINE AND THEN USE THE SLOPE TO FIND THE INTERCEPT. SO, THE "SLOPE-INTERCEPT" FORM OF THE EQUATION FOR THIS LINE IS:
y = -1/2x + 6
TO RE-WRITE THIS IN STANDARD FORM, WE JUST WANT TO MOVE THE X VARIABLE OVER TO THE LEFT WITH THE Y VARIABLE, SO:
y = -1/2x + 6
+1/2x + 1/2x
1/2x + y = 6 .... and that is your answer!
Answer:
364.5
Step-by-step explanation:
you would need a calculator for it, unless you can do exponential math at such a degree... if you're using a PC there's a good graphing calculator at Desmos.com, it can show you how a graph looks, which shows that when n is 7, the answer is 364.5. also it wouldn't be 1093.5 because the exponent is n-1 which means that while n could be 7, you need to take away 1 before using it as an exponent.
Subtract 12x from 84x = 72x
Answer:
Center = (5, -2) and radius = √33
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle is given by the formula;
(x-a)² + (y-b)² = r² ; where (a,b) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.
In this case;
2x² - 20x + 2y² + 8y =40 ;
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2 we get;
x² - 10x + y² + 4y = 20
we can then use the completing the square on both x and y terms.
x² - 10x + y² + 4y = 20
x² + 2(-5)x + 25 + y² + 2(2) y + 4 = 20 +9 + 4
In standard form we get;
(x-5)² + (y+2)² = 33
Therefore;
Center = (5, -2) and radius = √33
