Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The center of the circle is the midpoint of the two end points of the diameter.
Formula
Center = (x2 + x1)/2 , (y2 + y1)/2
Givens
x2 = 4
x1 = - 10
y2 = 6
y1 = - 2
Solution
Center = (4 - 10)/2, (6 - 2)/2
Center = -6/2 , 4/2
Center = - 3 , 2
So far what you have is
(x+3)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = r^2
Now you have to find the radius.
You can use either of the endpoints to find the radius.
find the distance from (4,6) to (-3,2)
r^2 = ( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )
x2 = 4
x1 = -3
y2 = 6
y1 = 2
r^2 = ( (4 - -3)^2 + (6 - 2)^2 )
r^2 = ( (7)^2 + 4^2)
r^2 = ( 49 + 16)
r^2 = 65
Ultimate formula is
(x+3)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 65
The radius is √65 = 8.06
The way I like to figure out problems like this is to write it out like,
1/10 = x/6000
(One over ten equals x over 6000)
Then you find out how much you multiplied 10 by to get 6000. To do this you can divide 6000 by 10 getting 600. The rule "what you do to the bottom you have to do to top" in this equation. So since you multiplied the bottom by 600 you have to multiply the top by 600 as well. 600 times 1 is just 600.
So your answer is, 600 is 1/10 of 6000.
Hope this helps and isn't too confusing.

multiply using the distributive property
If you graphed the equation: y = 5
You would put a straight line going horizontally through 5. Like this picture shows. If it were x = 5, for example, then it would go up and down through 5.
Let me know if this helped! Have a nice day!
