8 0

Answer:

x = 4 +  \sqrt{11},  \:  \: x = 4 -  \sqrt{11}

Step-by-step explanation:

{x}^{2}  -8x + 5 = 0 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  - 8x +  {4}^{2}  =  - 5 +  {4}^{2}  \\  \\  {(x - 4)}^{2}  =  - 5 + 16 \\  \\  {(x - 4)}^{2}  = 11 \\  \\ x - 4 =   \pm \sqrt{11}  \\  \\ x = 4 \pm \sqrt{11}  \\  \\ x = 4 +  \sqrt{11}, \:  \: x = 4 -  \sqrt{11}

Find the equation of the circle that is shifted 5 units to the left and 2 units down from the circle with the equation x^2+y^2=1
marysya [2.9K]
Shifting a circle results to changes in the coordinates of the circle. For instance, if the coordinates of the center of the circle is taken to be (0,0), the new coordinates will be [(0+5),(0+2)] after shifting. The equation of the circle will also change with the same margin.

That is, the new equation will be;
(5+x)^2+(2+y)^2 =19

Notice, only the coordinates changes.

Your answers should be B and D

When naming angles, they all need to be connected on the line without overlapping any points previously said. Angle YXZ is incorrect because X is not on the same line as Z. YW is a line because both sides continue on forever, as indicated by the arrows.

Hope this helps!
