Answer:

6. C: {x^2 +(y-1)^2 =2; x+y = 3}

15. C: The line does not intersect the circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the distance (d) from a point (x, y) to a line ax+by=c is ...

d = |ax+by-c|/√(a^2+b^2)

The formula for a circle centered at (h, k) with radius r is ...

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

___

6. Comparing the circle equation to the generic equation, we find (h, k) = (0, 1) and r = √2. Then we want to find the line that is distance √2 from the center of the circle. Our line equation is x+y=c for some value of c that we want to find.

d = √2 = |0 +1 -c|/√(1^2+1^2)

2 = |1-c|

±2 = 1-c

c = 1±2 = -1 or 3

The line that is tangent to the circle is the one of choice C: x+y = 3

__

The attached graph shows the lines for all 4 answer choices. The point of tangency is (1, 2), so x+y=1+2=3.

___

15. The circle is centered at (4, 1) and has radius 3. The distance from the circle center to the line is ...

d = |2(4) -(1)|/√(2^2+(-1)^2) = 7/√5 ≈ 3.13

The distance from the circle center to the line is more than the radius of the circle, so there can be no points of intersection.

__

Alternate solution

You can substitute for y using the equation of the line. Then the circle equation becomes ...

(x -4)^2 + (2x -1)^2 = 9

x^2 -8x +16 +4x^2 -4x +1 = 9

5x^2 -12x +8 = 0

The discriminant of this quadratic is ...

b^2 -4ac = (-12)^2 -4(5)(8) = 144-160 = -16

Since this value is negative, there can be no real solutions, meaning the line does not intersect the circle.

A roof on a castle tower is shaped like a cone with a diameter of 12 feet and has a slant height of 13 feet one bundle of Shingl
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

  8

Step-by-step explanation:

The lateral area of a cone is ...

  LA = (π/2)ds

where d is the diameter, and s is the slant height.

The area of this tower roof is about ...

  LA = (π/2)(12 ft)(13 ft) = 78π ft² ≈ 245 ft²

About 245/32 = 7.7 bundles of shingles will be required for coverage.

You should buy 8 bundles of shingles to cover the roof.

How do I solve “1+2+3+4+5+…100=“<br> A. 1010<br> B. 5050<br> C. 5000<br> D. 1000
irina [24]

Answer:

5050

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that 100/2 is 50 and 50 x 100 is 5000

so now another 50 is remaining but we can't multiply but add so

1+2+3+4+5...100 = in simple form= 50x100+50=5050//
