Step-by-step explanation:
The Midpoint Formula works exactly the same way. If you need to find the point that is exactly halfway between two given points, just average the x-values and the y-values.
Kylie's first month collection, a1= $ 145
Second month collection , a2= $145+ 20
Third month collection, a3 = $145 +2*20
.
.
.
.
so for n months collection = an-1+20
We get an= 20 + an-1 and a1=145
The easiest way is to try the point (-4,1), that is, x=-4, y=1,
to see which equation works.
b works.
The usual way to do it is to find the equation of the circle
standard form of a circle is (x-h)²+(y-k)²=r², (h,k) are the coordinates of the center, r is the radius.
in this case, the center is (-2,1), so (x+2)²+(y-1)²=r²
the given point (-4,1) is for you to find r: (-4+2)²+(1-1)²=r², r=2
so the equation is (x+2)²+(y-1)²=2²
expand it: x²+4x+4+y²-2y+1=4
x²+y²+4x-2y+1=0, which is answer b.
