The answer is 32/9.

to get this you have to turn 5 2/9 into a improper fraction which would be 47/9 and do the same with the other fraction then subtract that and you would get 32/9. Hope this helped! <3

Write an equation for a circle with a diameter that has endpoints at (–4, –7) and (–2, –5). Round to the nearest tenth if necess

Zinaida [17]

since we know the endpoints of the circle, we know then that distance from one to another is really the diameter, and half of that is its radius.

we can also find the midpoint of those two endpoints and we'll be landing right on the center of the circle.

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-5})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ \stackrel{diameter}{d}=\sqrt{[-2-(-4)]^2+[-5-(-7)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-2+4)^2+(-5+7)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{2^2+2^2}\implies d=\sqrt{2\cdot 2^2}\implies d=2\sqrt{2}~\hfill \stackrel{~\hfill radius}{\cfrac{2\sqrt{2}}{2}\implies\boxed{ \sqrt{2}}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-5})\qquad \qquad \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{-2-4}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{-5-7}{2} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{-6}{2}~,~\cfrac{-12}{2} \right)\implies \stackrel{center}{\boxed{(-3,-6)}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ (x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2 \qquad center~~(\stackrel{-3}{ h},\stackrel{-6}{ k})\qquad \qquad radius=\stackrel{\sqrt{2}}{ r} \\[2em] [x-(-3)]^2+[y-(-6)]^2=(\sqrt{2})^2\implies (x+3)^2+(y+6)^2=2$
