The diameter of Circle terminates on the circumference of the circle at​ (3,0) and (3,−7).. Write the equation of the circle in
Verdich [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

that means the center of the circle is exactly in the middle between the 2 points.

and since both points have the same x value (so, the diameter here is a vertical line), it is ready to get the y value of the middle : (-7 - 0) / 2 = -3.5

so, the coordinates of the center are (3, -3.5).

and that makes the standard circle equation

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

to

(x - 3)² + (y + 3.5)² = 3.5² = 12.25

as h, k are the coordinates of the center, and r is the radius (half the diameter).

2(x + 4) − 1 = 2x + 7
Margarita [4]

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions to this problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

I) Simplify:

2(x + 4) - 1 = 2x + 7

x + 4 - 0.5 = x + 3.5 (Divide by 2)

x + 3.5 = x + 3.5 (Simplify <em>x + 4 - 0.5</em>)

x = x

II) Conclusion:

Any real number will work as a solution.

no

Step-by-step explanation:

11/4 plus 11/4 is 22/4

to make this a whole number and a fraction we subtract 4 from the 22 as many times as we can. we can do this 5 times, with 2 left over.

the answer is 5 2/4, which you can simplify to 5 and a half
