<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

27 = x + 3x +5x

27 = 9x

3 = x

Board 1: (3)(1) = 3 inches

Board 2: (3)(3) = 9 inches

Board 3: (3)(5) = 15 inches

Find the equation for the circle with a diameter whose endpoints are (-5, -3) and (3,2).
densk [106]

Answer:

  (x +1)^2 +(y +0.5)^2 = 22.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of the circle is the midpoint of the diameter, so is ...

  (h, k) = ((-5, -3) +(3, 2))/2 = (-5+3, -3+2)/2 = (-1, -1/2)

The circle formula is then ...

  (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2

  (x -(-1))^2 +(y -(-1/2))^2 = r^2

We can find r^2 by substituting one of the points for (x, y).

  (3 +1)^2 +(2 +1/2)^2 = r^2 = 16 +6.25 = 22.25

Then the circle equation is ...

  (x +1)^2 +(y +0.5)^2 = 22.25
