The equation of a circle with center at (a,b) and radius r is: (x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2.

This circle has been translated from (0,0) to (a,b).

 

The equation of the circle in our case can be rewritten as: (x-2)^2+(y-2)^2=2^2

Moving the graph 3 units to the right is: (x-2-3)^2+(y-2)^2=2^2.

Moving the graph 1 unit down is: (x-2-3)^2+(y-2-1)^2=2^2.

This gives the equation: (x-5)^2+(y-3)^2=2^2

<span>So, the center of the circle is: (5,3)</span>

Answer:  The new co-ordinates of the center are (5, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:  The given equation of a circle is

x^2-4x+y^2+2y=4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We are to find the center of the above circle if the circle (i) is translated 3 units to the right and 1 unit down.

The standard equation of a circle with radius r units and center at (h, k) is given by

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

From equation (i), we have

x^2-4x+y^2+2y=4\\\\\Rightarrow (x^2-4x+4)+(y^2+2y+1)-4-1=4\\\\\Rightarrow (x-2)^2+(y+1)^2=9\\\\\Rightarrow (x-2)^2+(y+1)^2=3^2.

Comparing the above equation with the standard equation of a circle, we get

center, (h, k) = (2, -1) and radius, r = 3 units.

If the circle is translated 3 units to the right and 1 unit down, then the co-ordinates of the new center will be

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

Thus, the new co-ordinates of the center are (5, -2).

Explain how to correctly find the missing side
kotegsom [21]

Pythagorean Theorem

a² + b² = c²

c = 13

a = 4

(Missing side) = b

4² + b² = 13²

16 + b² = 169

16 - 16

169 - 16 = 153

Square Root of 153 = 12.369

b = 12.369

The missing side is 12.369 (rounded to 12 as a whole number)

A copy machine makes
IrinaK [193]
This problem can be represented in a formula with fractions. To make it more simple, we are converting 5m30s to just pure seconds, which = 154 copies in 330 seconds.

You set up the formula like this: 154/330 = x/60. (it is x/60 because you want to know the x amount of copies per 60 seconds)

Cross multiply, you get 330x = 9240. Divide both sides by 330, you get:

 x = 28 copies.

The final answer is 28 copies per minute
