Answer:

Distance is greater than the displacement.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a train on a straight track goes in the positive direction.

We have to find that distance covered by the train is greater than, lees than or equal to its displacement.

Train covered distance in positive direction=6.7 km

Train covered distance in back=4.0 km

Distance covered by the train=6.7+4=10.7 Km

Because distance is the length of path covered by object.

Displacement =Final position -Initial position

Displacement =6.7-4=2.7 km

        10.7 > 2.7

Distance > Displacement

Hence, Distance is greater than the displacement.

Find an equation of the circle that has center (-4,3) and passes through (6,-4).
kumpel [21]

Answer:

(x+4)^2+(y-3)^2=149

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

Given that (h,k)\rightarrow(-4,3) and it passes (6,-4), their distance between each other must the radius of the circle, so we can use the distance formula to find the radius:

d=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-4-3)^2+(6-(-4))^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-7)^2+10^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{49+100}\\\\d=\sqrt{149}

Therefore, if the length of the radius is r=\sqrt{149} units, then r^2=149, making the final equation of the circle (x+4)^2+(y-3)^2=149
