Answer:
A general line can be represented as , y= m x + c
And general equation of circle is , ax²+by²+2 g x +2 f y +c=0
Now there are following possibilities
1. A line and circle have no common point of intersection, that is no solution.
2. A line may be a tangent to a circle, that is one common point, one solution.
3. A line may intersect a circle maximum at two points, that is 2 solution.
Image is depicted below.
Well just substitute y (the first equation) into the second equation.
So
5x-4(5-3x)=-3
Then just solve the equation from there.
5x-20+12x=-3
17x=17
x=1
and if you need y, y=2
Given:
second term = 18
fifth term = 144
The nth term of a geometric sequence is:
Hence, we have:
Divide the expression for the fifth term by the expression for the second term:
Substituting the value of r into any of the expression:
Hence, the explicit rule for the sequence is:
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for area of a triangle is A = (1/2)bh,
For the first triangle we can leave it in general terms, so it's area is
A = (1/2)bh, depending on what b and h are, but it doesn't matter here...
The second triangle has base that is twice the other triangles base. Bases being multiples of each other is the definition of being proportional so the bases are proportional, an the area of the second triangle is
A = (1/2)(2b)h, which simplifies to
A = bh
Comparing the 2 areas, you can see that one has a multiplier of (1/2), so their areas are proportional
