Answer:

The value of u is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the slope of a line is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} , where

(x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}) are two points on the line

Let us use this rule to solve the question

∵ The slope of the line is -3

∴ m = -3

∵ The two points on the line are (-5, u) and (-4, 3)

∴ x_{1} = -5 and x_{2} = -4

∴ y_{1} = u and y_{2} = 3

→ Substitute these values in the rule of the slope above

∴ -3=\frac{3-u}{-4-(-5)}

∴ -3=\frac{3-u}{1}

→ By using cross multiplication

∴ -3 × 1 = 3 - u

∴ -3 = 3 - u

→ Add u to both sides to move u from the right side to the left side

∴ -3 + u = 3 - u + u

∴ -3 + u = 3

→ Add 3 to both sides to move -3 from the left side to the right side

∴ -3 + 3 + u = 3 + 3

∴ u = 6

The value of u is 6

8. Find the value of k, if (1-1) is a solution of the equation 3x-ky =8. Also, find the coordinates of
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

k = 5 and (6,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since (1,-1) is a solution of the equation 3x - ky = 8, so the point (1,-1) will satisfy the equation above.

Hence, putting x = 1 and y = -1 in the equation will give left-hand side = right-hand side.

So, 3(1) - k(-1) = 8

⇒ 3 + k = 8

⇒ k = 5 (Answer)

Therefore, the equation of the straight line is 3x - 5y = 8 ....... (1)

Now, putting x = 6 , then from equation (1) we get y = 2

Therefore, (6,2) is also a point on the graph of equation (1). (Answer)

The points A-1,-9) and K(5,1) are endpoints of a diameter of circle 5. Which equation represents circle S?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

if (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the extremities of diameter,then eq. of circle is

(x-x1)(x-x2)+(y-y1)(y-y2)=0

reqd. eq. is (x+1)(x-5)+(y+9)(y-1)=0

x^{2} +x-5x-5+y^2+9y-y-9=0\\x^{2} -4x+y^2+8y-14=0\\compare with x^2+y^2+2gx+2fy+c=0\\center (-g,-f) \\radius r=\sqrt{g^2+f^2-c}

center is (2,-4)

r=√(2²+(-4)²-(-14))

=√(4+16+14)

=√(34)

eq. of circle is (x-2)²+(y+4)²=34

or

(x²-4x)+(y²+8y)=14

(x²-4x+4)+(y²+8y+16)=14+4+16

(x-2)²+(y+4)²=34
