Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's make a table:
Term 1: 3 toothpicks
Term 2: 4 toothpicks
Term 3: 5 toothpicks
Term 4: 6 toothpicks
Term 5: 7 toothpicks
Term N = N + 2 toothpicks
Okay. so we need 15 2/5 pound bags. We'll calculate how many pounds that actually comes to. Our problem is 15x2/5. Using cross simplification, our problem becomes 3x2. 3x2=6. We need 6 pounds. That means that we must have 6 1-pound bags to fit with no leftovers.
The equation of a circle is:
(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2
where (h,k) is the location of the center and r is the radius. So we need to find h, k, and r. The center is given as (5,-4) so h = 5 and k = -4:
(x-5)^2 + (y-(-4))^2 = r^2
(x-5)^2 + (y+4)^2 = r^2
So we need to find r. Use the distance formula to find the distance between (5,-4) and (-3,2):
r = [(5-(-3))^2+((-4)-2)^2]^1/2
r = [8^2 + (-6)^2]^1/2
r = [64 + 36]^1/2
r = 100^1/2
r= 10
The final equation is:
(x-5)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 10^2
