Answer:

(x-1)²+ (y-0.5)²=6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The standard form of equation of a circle is;</u>

(x-a)²+(y-b)²=r² where (a,b) are the center of the circle and r is the radius

<u>Finding the mid-point of the given points</u>

(-1,2) and (3,-1)⇒midpoint will be 1/2(x₁+x₂) , 1/2(y₁+y₂)

midpoint= {1/2(-1+3), 1/2(2+-1)}

midpoint=(1,0.5)

<u>Finding the radius r; the distance from the center to either of the given two points</u>

Apply the distance formula d=√ (x₂-x₁)² +(y₂-y₁)²

Taking (x₁,y₁) as (1,0.5) and (x₂,y₂) as (-1,2) then

d=√ (-1-1)² +(2-0.5)²

d= √ (-2)²+(1.5)²

d=√4+2.25⇒√6.25⇒2.5

r=2.5

<u>Equation of the circle</u>

(x-1)² + (y-0.5)²=2.5²

(x-1)²+ (y-0.5)²=6.25

The coordinates of the vertexes of a triangle are A(3,3) B(6,6) C(9,3). What will be the new coordinates after a dilation
yuradex [85]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation by 3 from origin causes each point to be multiplied by 3.

(3,3) * 3 = (9, 9)

(6, 6) * 3 = (18, 18)

(9, 3) * 3 = (27, 9)

which is A

BRAINIEST IF ANSWERED CORRECTLY

An example of something that doesn't have a solution is something like x+2 = x+3

If we subtract x from both sides, then we end up with 2 = 3, which is always false.

No matter what we plug in for x, the original equation will always be false. The right hand side is always 1 larger than the left side. So that's why we don't have any solutions here.

Side note: equations of this form are known as contradictions (or we could say the equation is inconsistent).

=====================================================

An example of something that has one solution is 3x+2 = 2x+7

Solving this equation leads us to...

3x+2 = 2x+7

3x-2x = 7-2

1x = 5

x = 5

To verify the solution, we plug it back into the original equation

3x+2 = 2x+7

3(5)+2 = 2(5)+7

15+2 = 10+7

17 = 17

We get the same thing on both sides, so we get a true statement. This confirms that x = 5 is the solution to 3x+2 = 2x+7.

=====================================================

An example of an equation with infinitely many solutions is 2x+4 = 2(x+2)

Notice how both sides are the same thing. The 2(x+2) distributes out to get 2x+4

Since we have the exact same identical expression on both sides, this ultimately means no matter what we plug in for x, we'll get a true statement. True statements (like the conclusion at the last section) are simply anything with the same number on both sides after simplifying everything.

Side note: equations of this form are known as identities
