Answer:

<h2>B. x + 4y = 7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The point-slope form of an equation of a line:}\\\\y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m-slope\\\\\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\==============================

\text{We have the points (-1, 2) and (3, 1). Substitute:}\\\\m=\dfrac{1-2}{3-(-1)}=\dfrac{-1}{4}=-\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\\text{Put the value of a slope and the coordinates of the point (3, 1) }\\\text{to the equation of a line:}\\\\y-1=-\dfrac{1}{4}(x-3)\\\\\text{Convert to the standard form}\ Ax+By=C:\\\\y-1=-\dfrac{1}{4}(x-3)\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\4y-4=-(x-3)\\\\4y-4=-x-(-3)\qquad\text{add x to both sides}\\\\x+4y-4=3\qquad\text{add 4 to both sides}\\\\x+4y=7

State the correct polar coordinate for the graph shown:
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Solution : ( - 8, - 5π/3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four cases to consider here, the first two with respect to r > 0, the second two with respect to r < 0. For r < 0 we have the coordinates ( - 8, 60° ) and ( - 8, - 300° ) . - 300° in radians is - 5π/3, and hence our solution is option d. But let me expand on how to receive the coordinates. Again r is the directed distance from the pole, and theta is the directed angle from the positive x - axis.

<em />

So when r is either negative or positive, we can tell that this point is 8 units from the pole. Therefore - r = - 8 in both our second cases ( we are skipping the first two cases for simplicity ). For r < 0 the point will lay on the ray pointing in the opposite direction of the terminal side of theta.

Our first coordinate is ( - 8, 60° ). Theta will be 2 / 3rd of 90 degrees, or 60 degrees, for - r. Respectively the remaining degrees will be negative, 360 - 60 = 300, - 300. Our second point for - r will thus be ( - 8, - 300° ) . - 300° = - 5π/3 radians, and our coordinate will be ( - 8, - 5π/3 ).

Plzzz helpppppppppppppp
Serga [27]

<u>Answer</u>

Center: (1,-12)

Radius: 5

<u>Work</u>

x^{2}+y^{2}-2x+24y+120=0 (Subtract 120 on both sides and rearrange)

x^{2}-2x+y^{2}+24y=-120 (Then divide 2 by 2 and square it. Do the same for 24.)

x^{2}-2x+1+y^{2}+24y+144=-120+1+144 (You have to add the same numbers on both sides)

(x-1)^{2} +(y+12)^2=25 (Simplify)

So you would put (1,-12); r=5
