Answer:
A general line can be represented as , y= m x + c
And general equation of circle is , ax²+by²+2 g x +2 f y +c=0
Now there are following possibilities
1. A line and circle have no common point of intersection, that is no solution.
2. A line may be a tangent to a circle, that is one common point, one solution.
3. A line may intersect a circle maximum at two points, that is 2 solution.

Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
Center: (-4,-4)
Radius: 2 units.
<h2>
Why?</h2>
To solve the problem, using the given formula of a circle, we need to find its standard equation form which is equal to:

Where:
"h" and "k" are the coordinates of the center of the circle and "r" is its radius.
So, we need to complete the square for both variable "x" and "y".
The given equation is:

So, solving we have:



Now, we have that:

So,
Center: (-4,-4)
Radius: 2 units.
Have a nice day!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
sin x=a+b
cos x=a-b
sin²x+cos²x=(a+b)²+(a-b)²=2a²+2b²
or 2a²+2b²=1
a²+b²=1/2 which is constant for all values of x

Answer:
a_n = 3^(n -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The n-th term of a geometric sequence with first term a1 and common ratio r is given by ...
a_n = a1·r^(n-1)
Your sequence has first term 1 and ratio r=3, so the sequence is given by ...
a_n = 3^(n -1)

<em>Comment on sequences and series</em>
The sequences we commonly study are "arithmetic" and "geometric." Each of these has an explicit formula for the n-th term, based on the first term and the common difference or ratio. Similarly, each series (sum of terms of a sequence) also has a formula. That's 4 formulas to keep track of; not difficult. One of them, the formula for the n-th term of a geometric sequence, is shown above.
