The answer is the first one. <span>(x−2)2+(y+5)2=144. Hope this helps.</span>
Use slope formula:
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
-1/4 = 6-2 / 1/2 - x
-1/4 = 4 / 1/2 - x
-1(1/2 - x) = 4(4)
-1/2 + x = 16
x = 16 1/2 or 33/2
2(x^2+6x+9) = 2(x+3)^2
So after divided by (x+3), answer will be:
2(x+3)
The result can be shown in both exact and decimal forms.
Exact Form:
