Equation of the circle is (x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20.

Solution:

The endpoints of the diameter of a circle are (–8, –6) and (–4, –14).

Center of the circle = Mid point of the diameter

Mid point formula:

$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)

Here, x_1=-8, y_1=-6, x_2=-4, y_2=-14

$P(x, y) =\left(\frac{-8-4}{2}, \frac{-6-14}{2}\right)

$P(x, y) =\left(\frac{-12}{2}, \frac{-20}{2}\right)

$P(x, y) =(-6, -10)

Center of the circle = (–6, –10)

Radius is the distance between center and any endpoint of the diameter.

To calculate the radius using distance formula.

r=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}

Here, x_1=-6, y_1=-10, x_2=-8, y_2=-6

r=\sqrt{\left(-8-(-6)\right)^{2}+\left(-6-(-10)}\right)^{2}}

r=\sqrt{(-8+6)^{2}+(-6+10)^{2}}

r=\sqrt{(-2)^{2}+(4)^{2}}

r=\sqrt{20} units

The standard form of the equation of a circle is

(x-a)^{2}+(y-b)^{2}=r^{2}, where (a, b) are center and r is the radius.

Here, center = (–6, –10) and r=\sqrt{20}

(x-(-6))^{2}+(y-(-10))^{2}={(\sqrt{20})} ^{2}

(x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20

Equation of the circle is (x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20.

A rectangle's perimeter is equal to 27 plus its width. The length of the rectangle is four times its width. What is the
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

P = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

L = 4*w

P = 27 + w

P = 2*L + 2*w = 27 + w

2L = 2*(4w) = 8w

Put that into the perimeter formula (the first one.)

P = 8w + 2w = 27 + w

10w = 27 + w                        Subtract w from both sides

9w = 27                                Divide by 9

w = 27 / 9                          

w = 3

You should find the Length just so you can check it.

L = 4w

L = 4*3

L = 12

Check

P = 2L + 2w

P = 2*12 + 2*3 = 30

P = 27 + w

P = 27 + 3

P = 30 and everything checks.
