\bf 8\frac{4}{9}\implies \cfrac{8\cdot 9+4}{9}\implies \cfrac{76}{9}
\\\\\\
3\frac{2}{5}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 5+2}{5}\implies \cfrac{17}{5}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{76}{9}-\cfrac{17}{5}\impliedby \textit{let's use an LCD of 45}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 76-9\cdot 17}{45}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{380-153}{45}\implies \cfrac{227}{45}\implies \boxed{5\frac{2}{45}}
\\\\\\
5\frac{2}{45}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 45+2}{45}\implies \cfrac{227}{45}

A drone has an effective range represented by a circle on a coordinate plane. The points (–12, 3) and (–6, –5) are endpoints of
Mrac [35]

Answer:

(x+9)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question says diameter, we know the boundary in a circle. Therefore, we just need to find the center and radius.

The center is the midpoint of the two endpoints on a diameter.

Here, it is (-9, -1).

Therefore, the left part of the equation is (x- -9)^2 + (y - -1)^2 = (x+9)^2 + (y+1)^2.

The radius: sqrt(8^2 + 6^2) = 10

So the equation is (x+9)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 100
