Answer:

centre = (- 3, - 2) , radius = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Given

x² + 6x + y² + 4y + 12 = 0 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

x² + 6x + y² + 4y = - 12

Use the method of completing the square on the x and y terms

add ( half the coefficient of the x/ y terms )² to both sides

x² + 2(3)x + 9 + y² + 2(2)y + 4 = - 12 + 9 + 4

(x + 3)² + (y + 2)² = 1 ← in standard form

with centre = (- (- 3), - (- 2)) and r² = 1, that is

centre = (- 3, - 2) and radius = 1

The return for the investment is C, or 15.56%. You add the dividend and the capital gain, $4+$3=$7, and then divide by the initial investment price, or $45. 7/45=.1556, or 15.56%.

Need step by step detailed answer

kolezko [41]

Answer:

y = -4x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have two lines in slope intercept form as

$y = m_1x + c_1 \text{ and}\\y = m_2x + c_2\\$

then the product of the slopes $m_1m_2 = -1$

In other words, $m_2 = -\frac{1}{m_1}$

We have the first line as

$y = \frac{1}{4}x + 5\\\\$

The slope of this line is $\frac{1}{4}$

The slope of a perpendicular line will be the negative of the reciprocal of this line

Reciprocal of 1/4 is 4

So slope of perpendicular line is -4 which implies

y = -4x + c

We have to determine c

Since the line passes through (-3, 8), plug in these values for x and y in the equation and solve for c

8 = (-4)(-3) + c

8 = 12 + c

c = -4

So the equation of the perpendicular line is y = -4x - 4 (Answer)

It is always a good idea to plot these graphs and see if they fit the data provided

The attached plot shows the two graphs and you can see they are perpendicular to each other and the perpendicular line(the answer) passes through point (-3,8)

A map has a scale of 1/2 inch to 4 miles. The shortest distance between two cities on the map measures 8 inches. If d represents

azamat

The answer would be C because for every 1 inch, would be 8 miles, so we then multiply the inches by 8 to get to 8 inches, so we then multiply the miles by 8 and we get 64 miles.

D = 64 mi.
