(x+2)^{2}+(y-5)^{2}= 34

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x-a)^{2}+(y-b)^{2}=r^{2}

where (a , b) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

The centre is at the midpoint of the endpoints and the radius is the distance from the centre to either of the 2 endpoints

Using the midpoint formula

midpoint = [\frac{1}{2}(xx_{1}+x_{2}, \frac{1}{2}(y_{1}+y_{2}

where (x_{1},y_{1}=(3,8) and (x_{2},y_{2}=(-7,2)

centre = (\frac{1}{2}(3-7),\frac{1}{2}(8+2)) = (-2,5)

Calculate r using the distance formula

r = √(x_{2}-x_{1})²+(y_{2}-y_{1})²)

= √((3+2)²+(8-5)²) = √(25+9) = √34 ⇒ r² =(√34)² = 34

equation of circle is : (x+2)²+(y-5)² = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

{x}^{2}  + 14x + 24 = 0 \\  {x}^{2}  + 12x + 2x + 24 = 0 \\ x(x + 12) + 2(x + 12) = 0 \\ (x + 12)(x + 2)  = 0\\ x =  - 12 \\ x =  - 2

The two triangles we can see in the diagram are similar, which means that their measurements are proportional. Line MN on the larger triangle MNP is 71.5ft long, and its corresponding line, MA, on the smaller triangle is 71.5-22= 49.5ft long. This means that the scale factor from the bigger to the smaller triangle is 71.5/49.5=13/9.
If line MP on the bigger rectangle is 97.5ft long, then its corresponding line, MB, must be 97.5÷13/9=67.5 ft long.
Therefore, x=67.5 ft
