Hey guys, I'm relearning some Algebra and was confused about this problem. In the equation, the problem was divided by 3. This m
spayn [35]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The signs didn't really "swap". Instead, the whole function was divided by -1, or we could say the function was divided by -3. That would turn:

-18x² - 15x + 3 = 0

into

(-18 / -3)x² - (15 / -3)x + (3 / -3) = 0

6x² + 5x - 1 = 0

And that gives the "swapped signs".

What is the center of the circle for this equation:<br> (x + 3)² + (y - 2)² = 25
Ksju [112]

The formula for the equation of a circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) is the center of the circle and <em>r</em> is the radius.

So we need to find the values of (h, k) in order to find the center of the circle.

If we simply line up the equation of our given circle with our formula,

we can see that -h = 3 or h = -3 and -k = -2 so k = 2.

So now we have our answer.

center ⇒ (-3, 2)
