The general form of the equation of a circle is 7x2 + 7y2 − 28x + 42y − 35 = 0. The equation of this circle in standard form is
marta [7]
7 x² + 7 y² - 28 x + 42 y - 35 = 0  /: 7
x² + y² - 4 x + 6 y - 5 = 0
( x² - 4 x + 4 ) + ( y² + 6 y + 9 ) - 4  - 9 - 5 = 0
The equation in the standard form is:
( x - 2 )² + ( y + 3 )² = 18
The center is at the point ( 2, - 3 ).
Its radius is: √18 = 3√2 units.

How do I do this problem <br> -6(x+1)-18=26+4
pogonyaev

Answer:

x=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−6(x+1)−18=26+4

(−6)(x)+(−6)(1)+−18=26+4(Distribute)

−6x+−6+−18=26+4

(−6x)+(−6+−18)=(26+4)(Combine Like Terms)

−6x+−24=30

−6x−24=30

Step 2: Add 24 to both sides.

−6x−24+24=30+24

−6x=54

Step 3: Divide both sides by -6.

−6x

−6

=

54

−6

x=−9

Answer:

x=−9

Answer my question 4 u could get 10 points
Greeley [361]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Split the trapezoid into parts, a rectangle and a triangle. The dimensions of the rectangle will be 3 and 8, so 3*8=24. 24 is part of the answer. The dimensions of the triangle are 4 and 3, and 4*3/2 is 6, so 6 is the other part of the answer. 24 + 6 = 30.

What values of x and y satisfy -13/3 x-2 y=7 and 3x+2/5 y=5 simultaneously?
Aloiza [94]
Multpiply first equation by 3 and second by 5 to clear nasty faractions

-13x-6y=21
15x+2y=25

now see which ones we can clear
we can clear y
multiply second equation by 3 and add to the first equation

-13x-6y=21
<u>45x+6y=75 +</u>
32x+0y=96

32x=96
divide both sides by 32
x=3

sub back
15x+2y=25
15(3)+2y=25
45+2y=25
minus 45 from both sides
2y=-20
divide both sides by 2
y=-10

x=3
y=-10
(3,-10)
