The given system of equations represent a single line with positive slope. So option C is correct.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given system of equations are

\begin{array}{l}{3 y-5 x=15 \rightarrow(1)} \\\\ {6 y-10 x=30 \rightarrow(2)}\end{array}

Now, if we observe, (1) \times 2 \rightarrow(2) multiplying the 1^{st} equation with 2 results in 2^{nd} equation.

which means the two line equations represents the same line.

Now, let us find the slope of line, \text { slope }=\frac{-x \text { coefficient }}{y \text { coefficient }}=\frac{-3}{-5}=\frac{3}{5}=\text { positive slope }

So, the line has a positive slope.

Write the equation of a circle with a center at (-1,2) and a radius of 7
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

(x+1)^2+(y-2)^2=49

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for the equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where  r  is the radius, and the center is (h, k).

(h, k) = (-1, 2),  r = 7

(x-(-1))^2+(y-2)^2=7^2\\\\(x+1)^2+(y-2)^2=49
