Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given



Required
The locus of P

Express as fraction

Cross multiply

Calculate AP and BP using the following distance formula:

So, we have:


Take square of both sides
![4 * [(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2] = (x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20%2A%20%5B%28x%20%2B1%29%5E2%20%2B%20%28y%20%2B2%29%5E2%5D%20%3D%20%28x%20-%202%29%5E2%20%2B%20%28y%20-%204%29%5E2)
Evaluate all squares
![4 * [x^2 + 2x + 1 + y^2 +4y + 4] = x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 8y + 16](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20%2A%20%5Bx%5E2%20%2B%202x%20%2B%201%20%2B%20y%5E2%20%2B4y%20%2B%204%5D%20%3D%20x%5E2%20-%204x%20%2B%204%20%2B%20y%5E2%20-%208y%20%2B%2016)
Collect and evaluate like terms
![4 * [x^2 + 2x + y^2 +4y + 5] = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20%2A%20%5Bx%5E2%20%2B%202x%20%2B%20y%5E2%20%2B4y%20%2B%205%5D%20%3D%20x%5E2%20-%204x%20%2B%20y%5E2%20-%208y%20%2B%2020)
Open brackets

Collect like terms


Divide through by 3

B is the answer because 60/ 12.50 equals 12/2.5
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: Two solutions
Discussion:
Based on the graph provided the curves intersect at two point
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
Domain = -2, range = -5
Domain =>0, range = 0
domain = 2, range = 5
let y =>f(x)
It can be seen that Function can be linear having common difference 2
F(x) = 2x + 1 for x>0
is satisfied for above values
let's check
F(2) = 2(2)+1 = 4+1 = 5 As given
For x<0 , F(x) = 2x -1
f(-2)= 2(-2) -1= -4-1= -5 As given
For X= 0, F(x)= 2x
So , F(0) = 0 As given
It will be -1 and -6 because you would move down 12 times
