Explanation:

Given:

x

2

+

10

x

+

16

=

0

To complete the square put the two

x

terms on the left and the constant on the right of the equation:

x

2

+

10

x

=

−

16

Complete the square by multiplying the

x

-term by

1

2

:

1

2

⋅

10

=

5

and adding the square of this number to the right side of the equation:

UNDERSTANDING CHECK:

.

The

+

25

was not in the original equation. If we add

+

25

to one side of the equation, we must add the same amount to the other side of the equation to keep it balanced.

(

x

+

)

=

To solve, square root both sides of the equation:

The standard form of the equation of a circle is (x−5)2+(y−6)2=1.
Crank

Answer:

(A)x^2+y^2-10x-12y+60=0

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of the equation of a circle is given as:

(x-5)^2+(y-6)^2=1

Simplifying the above given equation, we get

x^2+25-10x+y^2+36-12y=1

x^2+y^2-10x-12y+36+25=1

x^2+y^2-10x-12y+61=1

x^2+y^2-10x-12y+60=0

which is the required general form of the equation.

Hence, option A is correct.

Peter made a square pin for his pet guinea pig to roam in. One side was 18.2 cm. What is the area of the pin?
Zina [86]

Hi!

Answer:

A) 331.24

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area, you need to multiply LxW, (Length x Width) and in this case, since it's a square, the sides are equal. Each side is 18.2 cm, so all we have to do is multiply 18.2 by 18.2, and then we get 331.24, so your answer is option A.

I hope this helps! :)
