Answer:

Option D.

3 equations with 3 variables

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of a point in space must necessarily have 3 components. One to describe the distance on the x axis, another to describe the distance on the y axis to the point, and a third to describe the distance on the z axis.

If we have three variables, then 3 equations are needed to solve the system. With less than 3 equations it would be impossible to solver the system.

Therefore the correct answer is option D.

3 equations with 3 variables

Can somebody step by step explain how to solve this problem??<br><br> (3x^2y)(-7xy^3)
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

\boxed{\bold{-21x^3y^4}}

Explanation:

[ Step One ] Remove Parenthesis: (a) = a

\bold{-3x^2y\cdot \:7xy^3}

[ Step Two ] Multiply: \bold{3\cdot \:7=21}

\bold{-21x^2xy^3y}

[ Step Three ] Apply Exponent Rule \bold{\:a^b\cdot \:a^c=a^{b+c}: \ x^2x=\:x^{2+1}=\:x^3}

\bold{-21x^3y^3y}

[ Step Four ] Apply Exponent Rule: \bold{y^3y=\:y^{1+3}=\:y^4}

\bold{-21x^3y^4}

[ \boxed{\bold{Final \ Answer}} ]

➤ \bold{-21x^3y^4}

\boxed{\bold{Mordancy}}

Write the equation of the circle that has a center of (-7, 17) with<br> a radius of V19.
kipiarov [429]

I think your question seems to be :-

Write the equation of the circle that has a center of (-7, 17) with a radius of √19

So , as we know that the equation of circle with centre at <em>(h,k)</em> and <em>radius r</em> is given by {\bf{(x-h)^{2}+(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}}} . Now , using same concept in this question ;

{:\implies \quad \sf \{x-(-7)\}^{2}+(y-17)^{2}=(\sqrt{19})^{2}}

{:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{(x+7)^{2}+(y-17)^{2}=19}}}

<em>This is the required equation of Circle </em>
