Find an equation of the circle tangent to the lines x=1, x=9, y=0

Mathematics

Arada [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a circle has tangents x=1, x=9 and y=0

Since two parallel lines are tangents the distance between these two lines give diameter of the circle

Distance between x=1 and x=9 is 9-1 =8 units

radius = 4 units ...i

Since y=0 is tangent, the centre will be having y coordinate as 4.

Since centre lies in the middle of x=1 and x=9 the centre will have x coordinate

as 5

Hence equation of the circle is

(x-5)^2+(y-4)^2 = 16

Answer:

(x − 5)² + (y − 4)² = 4²

(x − 5)² + (y + 4)² = 4²

Step-by-step explanation:

x=1 and x=9 are vertical lines.  If both are tangent to the circle, then the circle has a diameter of 8, or a radius of 4, and the center of the circle is on the line x=5.

y=0 is the x-axis.  Since the circle is tangent to that, the center of the circle is either 4 units above the x-axis or 4 units below.

So two possible equations of the circle are:

(x − 5)² + (y − 4)² = 4²

(x − 5)² + (y + 4)² = 4²

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 813 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Saturday. There were 63 more cheeseburger so
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

  375 hamburgers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represent the number of hamburgers. Then h+63 is the number of cheeseburgers, and the combined total is ...

  h +(h +63) = 813

  2h = 813 -63 = 750

  h = 750/2 = 375

375 hamburgers were sold on Saturday.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

In a "sum and difference" problem like this, the smaller number is half the difference between the sum and the difference. h = (813 -63)/2 = 375. This generic solution applies to all "sum and difference" problems.

The Sunday Times had 14 sections with an average of 16 pages per section. How many pages were in the entire newspaper?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

224 pages total

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many total pages, you have to multiply the number of sections by the number of pages in each section. 14 sections times 16 pages per section equals a total of 224 total pages.
