What is the solution to this system of equations? 3x + y = 17 x + 2y = 49

1 answer:

3 0

3x+y=17
x+2y=49
Times 3 for both side
3x+6y=147
-
3x+y=17
=
5y=130
Divided 5 for both side:
y=26
3x+y=17
3x+26=17
Subtract 26 for both side
3x=-9
Divided 3 for both side
x=-3. Hope it help!

We have two points describing the diameter of a circumference, these are:

$\begin{gathered} A=(-12,-4) \\ B=(-4,-10) \end{gathered}$

Recall that the equation for the standard form of a circle is:

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

Where (h,k) is the coordinate of the center of the circle, to find this coordinate, we find the midpoint of the diameter, that is, the midpoint between points A and B.

For this we use the following equation:

$M=(\frac{x_1+x_2_{}_{}}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

Now, we replace and solve:

$\begin{gathered} M=(\frac{-12+(-4)}{2},\frac{-4+(-10)}{2} \\ M=(\frac{-12-4}{2},\frac{-4-10}{2}) \\ M=(\frac{-16}{2},\frac{-14}{2}) \\ M=(-8,-7) \end{gathered}$

The center of the circle is (-8,-7), so:

$\begin{gathered} h=-8 \\ k=-7 \end{gathered}$

On the other hand, we must find the radius of the circle, remember that the radius of a circle goes from the center of the circumference to a point on its arc, for this we use the following equation:
