a.) X^2 - 2x – 24 = 0

x^2-6x+4x-24=0

this is expressing negative 2x as the sum of two terms which are negative 6x and positive 4x

x(x-6)+4(x-6)=0

(x+4)(x-6)=0

(x+4)=0. so x=-4

(x-6)=0 so x=6

b.) x^2 - 11x + 18 =0

Find the standard form of the equation of the circle with endpoints of a diameter at the points (3,8) and (-7,2)
poizon [28]

(x+2)^{2}+(y-5)^{2}= 34

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x-a)^{2}+(y-b)^{2}=r^{2}

where (a , b) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

The centre is at the midpoint of the endpoints and the radius is the distance from the centre to either of the 2 endpoints

Using the midpoint formula

midpoint = [\frac{1}{2}(xx_{1}+x_{2}, \frac{1}{2}(y_{1}+y_{2}

where (x_{1},y_{1}=(3,8) and (x_{2},y_{2}=(-7,2)

centre = (\frac{1}{2}(3-7),\frac{1}{2}(8+2)) = (-2,5)

Calculate r using the distance formula

r = √(x_{2}-x_{1})²+(y_{2}-y_{1})²)

= √((3+2)²+(8-5)²) = √(25+9) = √34 ⇒ r² =(√34)² = 34

equation of circle is : (x+2)²+(y-5)² = 34

Which fraction represents the decimal 0. ModifyingAbove 1 2 with Bar? One-twelfth StartFraction 3 Over 25 EndFraction StartFract
mestny [16]

The considered decimal number is expressed by the fraction given by: Option C: 4/33

<h3>How to convert from decimal to fraction?</h3>

For conversion from decimal to fraction, we write it in the form a/b such that the result of the fraction comes as the given decimal. Usually, to get the decimal of the form a.bcd, we count how many digits are there after the decimal point (if its finite), then we write 10 raised to that many power as denominator, and the considered number without any decimal point as numerator.

For example:

0.99 = \dfrac{99}{10^2} = \dfrac{99}{100}

(10 raised to power k = 1 followed by k zeroes)

<h3>What is the sum of an infinite geometric series?</h3>

The sum of an infinite geometric series having the initial term "a" and the multiplication per term is done by "r" such that r < 1

is given by

S_{\infty} = \dfrac{a}{1-r}

The series would look like a+ ar+ ar^2+\cdots

For the considered case, the given decimal number is

0.\overline{12} = 0.121212\cdots

We can check all the options available one by one, so as to know which one ends up giving this pattern, or we can use another technique as shown below.

0.12121...  = (0.1 + 0.001 + 0.00001 + ... ) + (0.02 + 0.0002 + 0.000002 + ... )

Each of the two series obtained are geometric series with the multiplication factor as 1/100

Using the sum formula for evaluation of an infinite geometric series, and the fact that initial term of first series is 0.1 and that of second series is 0.02, we get:
0.121212... = \dfrac{0.1}{1-1/100} + \dfrac{0.02}{1 - 1/100} = \dfrac{1}{99/100}(\dfrac{1}{10} + \dfrac{2}{100})\\0.121212...  = \dfrac{100}{99}\times(\dfrac{10}{100} + \dfrac{2}{100})\\\\\\0.121212 ... = \dfrac{12}{99} = \dfrac{4}{33}

Thus, the considered decimal number is expressed by the fraction given by: Option C: 4/33

Work out the circumference of this circle.<br> Give your answer in terms of pi and state its units
Sati [7]

Answer:

14π cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of a circle given the diameter is :

πd

We simply substitute the value given in the image into our formula to find our answer:

πd = π×14 = 14π

Units will be cm as circumference is a length

This is our final answer as the question states to leave it in pi form .

Hope this helped and brainliest please
