Find the equation of a circle with a center at (–7, –1) where a point on the circle is (–4, 3).

Answer:

(x + 7)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of a circle is easy to set up. According to the formula below, the formula for the circle will be (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2.

In this case, a = -7 and b = -1, so we have...

(x - (-7))^2 + (y - (-1))^2 = r^2

(x + 7)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = r^2

To get the radius, we need to find the distance between the center and the point on the circle. The distance formula is d = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2).

In this case, x2 = -4, x1 = -7, y2 = 3, and y1 = -1.

sqrt((-4 - -7)^2 + (3 - -1)^2) = sqrt((-4 + 7)^2 + (3 + 1)^2) = sqrt((3)^2 + (4)^2) = sqrt(9 + 16) = sqrt(25) = plus or minus 5.

Since distance can only be positive, the distance is 5 units, meaning that the radius is 5 units.

5^2 = 25

So, your equation should be (x + 7)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 25.

Hope this helps!

A civil engineer is designing a public parking lot for the new town hall. The number of cars in each row should be six less than
Alexandra [31]
The new parking lot must hold twice as many cars as the previous parking lot. The previous parking lot could hold 56 cars. So this means the new parking lot must hold 2 x 56 = 112 cars

Let y represent the number of cars in each row, and x be the number of total rows in the parking lot. Since the number of cars in each row must be 6 less than the number of rows, we can write the equation as:

y = x - 6             (1)

The product of cars in each row and the number of rows will give the total number of cars. So we can write the equation as:

xy = 112           (2)

Using the above two equations, the civil engineer can find the number of rows he should include in the new parking lot.

Using the value of y from equation 1 to 2, we get:

x(x - 6) = 112       (3)

This equation is only in terms of x, i.e. the number of rows and can be directly solved to find the number of rows that must in new parking lot.

A used car dealership buys a car for $2800 and then sells it for $4500 what is the percent increase?
Murljashka [212]
Alright, so we have the difference = 4500-2800=1700. To find the percent increase, we do 1700/2800=around 0.61 = around 61% percent

Answer:

x = 34 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Each solid line and triangle add up to 180, so start from the left and slowly do your math.

180 - 112 = 68

180 - 68 - 43 = 69

180 - 69 = 111

180 - 111 - 35 = 34

x and the last angle are the same.
