Answer:

(x + 1)² + (y + 3)² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Given

x² + y² + 2x + 6y - 6 = 0

Collect the x and y terms together and add 6 to both sides

x² + 2x + y² + 6y = 6

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x/ y terms )² to both sides

x² + 2(1)x + 1 + y² + 2(3)y + 9 = 6 + 1 + 9

(x + 1)² + (y + 3)² = 16

with centre = (- 1, - 3) and r = $\sqrt{16}$ = 4

How do you substitute x+y=2 3x+2y=5

Monica [59]

Here's how you solve this. So, x+y=2, right? Let's isolate x. x+y-y=2-y. x=2-y. NOW, if x=2-y, in 3x+2y=5, we can REPLACE x with 2-y and use it to solve for y! 3x+2y=5. 3(2-y)+2y=5. (3*2)+(3*-y)+2y=5. 6+(-3y)+2y=5. 6+(-y)=5. 6+(-y)-6=5-6. -y=-1. -y/-1=-1/-1. y=1.

So, if y=1, we can substitute that back into either equation--but let's go with the easier one, x+y=2. x+1=2. x+1-1=2-1. x=1. 1+1=2, so that works; let's check the other equation. 3(1)+2(1)=5. 3+2=5. 5=5. That's correct!

Answer: x=1, y=1

Answer:

x = 8

z = 93°

You had to solve the equation 13x-17=14x-25 and than solve {360-(87*2)} /2
