The Greek method for finding the equation of the tangent line to a circle uses the fact that at any point on the circle the line

s containing the center and the tangent line are perpendicular. Use this method to find an equation of the tangent line to the circle x squared plus y squared equals 49 at the point (1 comma 4 StartRoot 3 EndRoot ).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given circle has equation as

x^2+y^2 =49

Center = P(0,0)

The point of contact of tangent = (1,4\sqrt{3} )Q

Since tangent is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact, we have

Slope = \frac{4\sqrt{3} }{1} as slope of perpendicular to tangent

So tangent slope would be

-1/slope of this line

= \frac{-1}{4\sqrt{3} }

We have point on this line as given point

So using point slope form equation of tangent is

y-4\sqrt{3} =\frac{-1}{4\sqrt{3} } (x-1)\\4\sqrt{3} y -48 =-x+1\\x+4\sqrt{3} y= 49

En una escuela hay 135 mujeres y la razón entre hombres y mujeres es de 7 a 9. ¿Cuántos estudiantes hay en la escuela? *
pochemuha

Answer:

There are 531.5625 students which is 531 students in the school

Step-by-step explanation:

We add the ratio numbers ( 7 + 9 = 16)

We then divide that number by 135 ( 135 / 16 = 8.4375)

After we multiply by each ratio number, ( 7 and 9).

And we end up with 531.5625, also 531 students.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hay 531.5625 estudiantes, que son 531 estudiantes en la escuela.

Explicación paso a paso:

Sumamos los números de razón (7 + 9 = 16)

Luego dividimos ese número por 135 (135/16 = 8.4375)

Después, multiplicamos por cada número de razón (7 y 9).

Y terminamos con 531.5625, también 531 estudiantes.

X+y=8 and 3x+2y=14 for soliving system
kumpel [21]
X+y=8
multiply the first equation by 3 to get rid of x
3x+3y=24
3x+2y=14
subtract equation 1 from 2
y=10
substitute to find the value of x
x+10=8
x=-2
