Write the general equation for the circle that passes through the points (-1,2)(4,2)(-3,4)

Mathematics

Answer:

x² + y² - 3x - 13y + 18 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the general equation of a circle looks something like this:

x² + y² + Ax + By + C = 0

substituting each of the points into the equation we get:

for (-1,2)

(-1)² + (2)² + A(-1) + B(2) + C = 0

1 + 4 -A+2B + C = 0

-A + 2B + C + 5 = 0 ------------ eq 1

for (4,2)

(4)² + (2)² + A(4) + B(2) + C = 0

16 + 4 + 4A + 2B + C = 0

4A + 2B + C + 20 = 0 ------------- eq 2

for (-3,4)

(-3)² + (4)² + A(-3) + B(4) + C = 0

9 + 16 -3A + 4B + C = 0

-3A + 4B + C + 25= 0 ----- eq 3

Now we have a system of equations with 3 equations and 3 unknowns.

Solving for A, B and C, we eventually get:

A = -3, B = -13, C = 18

Substituting these into the general equation:

x² + y² + Ax + By + C = 0

x² + y² - 3x - 13y + 18 = 0

Answer:

27 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of a circle

A = pi r^2

A = pi ^^2

36 pi

We know this is 3/4 of a circle so multiply the area by 3/4

3/4 * 36 pi

27 pi

your customer count for last week was 5417. Due to a product promotion you expect a 2.4% increase this week over last week. how
Sauron [17]
The answer would be 5547
First you multiply 5417 and 2.4% to get 130.008
Then you add 130.008 and 5417 to get 5547.008
but you can round this to 5547
Hope this helped! :)

NEED ANSWER ASAP- FOR FINALS
blagie [28]

Answer:

Width - 12ft  Length - 30ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Width is 12ft

Length is 30ft

Depth is 6ft

The length, 30ft, is 2.5 times longer than the width which is 12 ft which confirms the two dimensions to be correct.

When you multiply all three of the dimensions of the swimming pool you will get 2940 cubic feet
