Answer:

(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this complete problem: "A cell tower is located at (-8, 4) and transmits a circular signal that covers three major cities. The three cities are located on the circle and have the following coordinates: G (-4, 7), H (-13, 4), and I (-8, -1). Find the equation of the circle"

For this case the generla equation for the circle is given by:

(x-h)^2 +(y-k)^2 = r^2

From the info we know that the tower is located at (-8, 4) so then h = -8 and k = 4, so then we need to find the radius. So we have the equation like this:(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = r^2

If the 3 points are on the circle then satisfy the equation. We can use the first point (-4,7) and if we replace we can find the value for r^2

(-4+8)^2 +(7-4)^2 =25= r^2

So then r = \sqrt{25}=5

And if we replace the second point we got this:

(-13+8)^2 +(4-4)^2 = 25 =r^2

And for the third point we have:

(-8+8)^2 +(-1-4)^2 = 25 =r^2

And we got the same result.

So then our final equation is given:

(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = 25

Jane is a cliff diver and she is planning on jumping from a height of 747 feet and landing in the water below. She will end her
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

811 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding height difference, you use absolute value, so everything is positive. 747+64 = 811, so your answer is 811 feet.

Hope this helps!

Find the distance between the two points.<br> (-6, – 7), (0,0)
Elden [556K]

Answer:

√85

Step-by-step explanation:

for this, you will probably need to draw a graph. Plot the points, and then you will notice that you can draw a triangle with one side being the x-axis ( go on to (-6,0) then drop down unitll you hit the point (-6;-7)

// use the pythagoream theorem to find the length

the distance of the leg on the x-axis is 6  (calculate 0-(-6))

the distance of the leg that is dropping down is -7 (calculate 0-(-7))

then we have 2 legs and need to find the hypotenuse.

Pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2

substitute :

6^2 + 7^2 = c^2

36+49 = 85

c= √85
