Answer:
Combine like terms
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step in such equations is to simplify the equation which is done most often by combining like terms, and by combining like terms i mean for example:
1 + 5 + 3x = 4y + z
You will combine the like terms (those that can be added or subtracted):
6 + 3x = 4y + z
In our example, combining terms would be adding 2x/3 and 1x/3 to give
3x/3 + 2 = 5
The equation is now simple and easy to solve as you simplify 3x/3 to 1x and then proceed to rearrange the equation to yield the value of x
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the radius of the circle
we know that
The distance between the center and any point that lie on the circle is equal to the radius
we have the points
(5,-4) and (-3,2)
the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to
substitute the values
step 2
Find the equation of the circle
we know that
The equation of a circle in standard form is equal to
where
(h,k) is the center
r is the radius
we have
substitute
Y = mx + c is the general equation of a line. m is the slope and c is the y intercept, by substituting these values in you get y = 1/4 x -2
