Answer:

$y= \frac{-5}{4}x -4$

Step-by-step explanation:

using pt-slope form, we get $y - (-9) = \frac{-5}{4}(x-4)$ . Using the Distributive Property and Addition Propert of Equality, we can simplify this equation into $y = \frac{-5}{4}x + 5$ by factoring -5/4 into (x-4) and subtracting 9 from both sides.

Which equation represents the circle described? (in picture)

Sedaia [141]

You are right. In circle equation we have =r² so the correct answer will be C od D. But we have to calculate the center of a circle.

$x^2+y^2-8x-6y+24=0\quad|-24\\\\(x^2-8x)+(y^2-6y)=-24$

Complete the square:

$x^2-8x+a^2\implies a=\dfrac{8x}{2x}=4\implies x^2-8x+4^2\\\\\\y^2-6y+b^2\implies b=\dfrac{6y}{2y}=3\implies y^2-6y+3^2$

And we have:

$(x^2-8x)+(y^2-6y)=-24\\\\(x^2-8x+4^2)-4^2+(y^2-6y+3^2)-3^2=-24\\\\
(x-4)^2+(y-3)^2-16-9=-24\\\\(x-4)^2+(y-3)^2-25=-24\quad|+25\\\\\boxed{(x-4)^2+(y-3)^2=1}$

So the answer is C (the same left side of equation).
