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!

hram777 [196]

Answer:

The answer is -1200 +3(60)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the submarine is 1200 feet below sea level, that means that the submarine's level is -1200. If you rise by 60 in a 3 hour period, you rise by 60 every 3 hours. So if your rising by 60 feet, 60 is not a negative, and the equation would be -1200+3(60). Hope this helped! :D

Which is the equation of the line with slope 0 passing through the point (-3,-1)?
madreJ [45]

When a line has a slope of zero it means that it is horizontal. This means that all the x values have the same y values. In this case it means that the y value is always -1.

The equation for this line is...

y = -1

Hope this helped!
