Answer:

<em>The coordinates of P are (-2,0)</em>

<em>The radius of the circle is 5.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Analytic geometry</u>

The diagram shows a circle with center P, and two points A(-6,3) and B(2,-3) that form the diameter of the circle.

a)

The center of the circle lies at the midpoint of A and B. The midpoint (xm,ym) can be calculated by:

\displaystyle x_m=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}

Substituting x1=-6, x2=2, y1=3, y2=-3:

\displaystyle x_m=\frac{-6+2}{2}=\frac{-4}{2}=-2

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{3-3}{2}=0

Thus, the coordinates of P are (-2,0)

b) The radius of the circle is the distance from the center to any point in its circumference. We can use the distance from P to A or B indistinctly.

Given two points A(x1,y1) and P(x2,y2), the distance between them is:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Substituting x1=-6, x2=-2, y1=3, y2=0:

r=\sqrt{(-2+6)^2+(0-3)^2}

r=\sqrt{4^2+(-3)^2}

r=\sqrt{16+9}=\sqrt{25}=5

The radius of the circle is 5.

Melanie eats 1.5 pounds of cereal each week. Which model below best represents the number of pounds of cereal she eats in .5 wee
Katena32 [7]
For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
 We have then:
 x: number of weeks
 y: amount of cereal that Melanie eats
 We now write the function that models the problem:
 y = 1.5x&#10;
 Then, for 5 weeks we have:
 y = 1.5 (5)&#10;&#10;y = 7.5 pounds
 Answer:
 
A model that best represents the number of pounds of cereal she eats is:
 
y = 1.5x&#10;

Mind helping me find the rate of change and y intercept???
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

gradient is 8 and y intercept is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mc+b

take one pair of corridants:

8=1m+b

m=8 (change in y values/changes in x values)

8=1x8+b

do the equation

y=0

Have a nice day!!!!!!!!! :-)

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

11x^4

Step-by-step explanation:

The double negative automatically makes something positive. Your new expression is 5x^4 + 6x^4.

The only other thing you need to do is combine like terms by adding them together.

11x^4
