Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the rules of the distributive property, you have to multiply the term outside of the parentheses with the terms inside the parentheses first.

1. 2(-5)=-10

2. 2(3)=6

The terms that we have are now -10 and 6. Add them together to get the final answer.

-10+6=-4

The chemical structure includes the bonding angle, the type of bonds, the size of the molecule, and the interactions between molecules. Slight changes in the chemical structure can drastically affect the properties of the compound.

A circle is centered at the point (5,-4) & passes through the point (-3,2).

maxonik [38]

Equation of the circle:

$(x-5)^2+(y+4)^2=100$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is given by

$(x-x_0)^2+(y-y_0)^2=r^2$

where

$(x_0,y_0)$ are the coordinates of the center of the circle

r is the radius of the circle

For the circle in this problem, we know that:

(5,4) are the coordinates of the center

We also know that the circle passes through the point (-3,2), therefore we can calculate the radius as the distance between the point on the circle and the center of the circle:

$r=\sqrt{(-3-(5))^2+(2-(-4))^2}=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(6)^2}=\sqrt{64+36}=10$

Therefore, the equation of the circle is:

$(x-5)^2+(y-(-4))^2=10^2\\(x-5)^2+(y+4)^2=100$

find the centre and radius of the following Cycles 9 x square + 9 y square +27 x + 12 y + 19 equals 0

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Radius: $r =\frac{\sqrt {21}}{6}$

$Center = (-\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{2}{3})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$9x^2 + 9y^2 + 27x + 12y + 19 = 0$

Solving (a): The radius of the circle

First, we express the equation as:

$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$

Where

$r = radius$

$(h,k) =center$

So, we have:

$9x^2 + 9y^2 + 27x + 12y + 19 = 0$

Divide through by 9

$x^2 + y^2 + 3x + \frac{12}{9}y + \frac{19}{9} = 0$

Rewrite as:

$x^2 + 3x + y^2+ \frac{12}{9}y =- \frac{19}{9}$

Group the expression into 2

$[x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{12}{9}y] =- \frac{19}{9}$

$[x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}$

Next, we complete the square on each group.

For $[x^2 + 3x]$

1: Divide the $coefficient\ of\ x\ by\ 2$

2: Take the $square\ of\ the\ division$

3: Add this $square\ to\ both\ sides\ of\ the\ equation.$

So, we have:

$[x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}$

$[x^2 + 3x + (\frac{3}{2})^2] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2$

Factorize

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2$

Apply the same to y

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y +(\frac{4}{6})^2 ] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2 +(\frac{4}{6})^2$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2 +(\frac{4}{6})^2$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =- \frac{19}{9}+ \frac{9}{4} +\frac{16}{36}$

Add the fractions

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{-19 * 4 + 9 * 9 + 16 * 1}{36}$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{21}{36}$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{2}{3}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}$

Recall that:

$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$

By comparison:

$r^2 =\frac{7}{12}$

Take square roots of both sides

$r =\sqrt{\frac{7}{12}}$

Split

$r =\frac{\sqrt 7}{\sqrt 12}$

Rationalize

$r =\frac{\sqrt 7*\sqrt 12}{\sqrt 12*\sqrt 12}$

$r =\frac{\sqrt {84}}{12}$

$r =\frac{\sqrt {4*21}}{12}$

$r =\frac{2\sqrt {21}}{12}$

$r =\frac{\sqrt {21}}{6}$

Solving (b): The center

Recall that:

$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$

Where

$r = radius$

$(h,k) =center$

From:

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{2}{3}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}$

$-h = \frac{3}{2}$ and $-k = \frac{2}{3}$

Solve for h and k

$h = -\frac{3}{2}$ and $k = -\frac{2}{3}$

Hence, the center is:

$Center = (-\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{2}{3})$
