Answer:

225 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be l and width be w

Condition 1

2l+2w=68 (Perimeter=68)--------(i)

Condition 2

l=3w-2 ---------(ii)

Putting equation (ii) in (i)

2(3w-2)+2w=68

6w-4+2w=68

8w-4=68

8w=68+4

8w=72

dividing both sides by 8

w=9 inches

now putting w=9 in (ii)

l=3(9)-2

l=27-2

l=25 inches

Now

Area of rectangle =  l × w

=9 × 25

=225 inches²

Which equation represents a circle that contains the point (-5, 3) and has a center at (-2, 1)? Distance formula: vaa -02 (x - 1
natali 33 [55]

Given:

The center of the circle = (-2,1).

Circle passes through the point (-5,3).

To find:

The equation of the circle.

Solution:

Radius is the distance between the center of the circle and any point on the circle. So, radius of the circle is the distance between the points (-2,1) and (-5,3).

Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

r=\sqrt{(-5-(-2))^2+(3-1)^2}

r=\sqrt{(-5+2)^2+(2)^2}

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

On further simplification, we get

r=\sqrt{9+4}

r=\sqrt{13}

The standard form of a circle is:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Where, (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

Substitute h=-2, k=1 and r=\sqrt{13}.

(x-(-2))^2+(y-1)^2=(\sqrt{13})^2

(x+2)^2+(y-1)^2=13

Therefore, the equation of the circle is (x+2)^2+(y-1)^2=13.
