The correct answer to fill in the blank would be:

“a barrier island”

Barrier islands are coastal landforms and a category of dune system that are remarkably even or lumpy areas of sand that was formed by wave and tidal actions that are parallel to the mainland coast. Due to this feature, there are no enough sand blockades to minimize the destruction by Hurricane Sandy.

(1 point) Answer the following questions about the sphere whose equation is given by x2+y2+z2−4x+4y=73. x2+y2+z2−4x+4y=73. 1. Fi
pychu [463]

Answer:

R=9.

C=(2,-2,0).

Explanation:

Lets try to find how x^2+y^2+z^2-4x+4y=73 can be written in the form of (x-a)^2+(x-b)^2+(x-c)^2=R^2, since then its radius R and center of coordinates C=(a,b,c) would be easily recognizable.

Since we have the terms -4x and +4y, they seem to have come from the terms (x-2)^2 and (y+2)^2, and we would need to take care of the extra +4 by substracting then. More explicitly:

(x-2)^2-4=x^2-4x+4-4=x^2-4x, as we had originally with the x terms

(y+2)^2-4=y^2+4y+4-4=y^2+4y, as we had originally with the y terms

Which means:

x^2-4x+y^2+4y+z^2=(x-2)^2-4+(y+2)^2-4+z^2

Or, putting all together:

(x-2)^2-4+(y+2)^2-4+z^2=73

(x-2)^2+(y+2)^2+z^2=9^2

So our radius is 9 and the center is (2,-2,0).
