What is the equation of the circle with center (1, -1) that passes through the point (5, 7)?

Inessa [10]

Answer:

Equation of the circle =

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Center = (1 , -1)

Point = ( 5 , 7)

Eqn of a circle is

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

We are not given the radius of the circle, fortunately we are provided the information that the circle contains a point ( 5, 7), so we use the above information to find r

Using the center (1, -1)

h - 1

k - -1

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

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

With the point ( 5,7)

x = 5

y = 7

r^2 = ( 5 - 1)^2 + ( 7 + 1)^2

= 4^2 + 8^2

= 16 + 64

= 80

r^2 = 80

r = square root of 80

r = 8.94

The r = 8.94 , which means the equation of the circle is

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

Cameron buys 2.45 pounds of apples and 1.65 pounds of pears. Apples and pears each cost c dollars per pound. If the total cost a

Leto [7]

Answer:

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation to find the value for c, we need to declare what c is first.

c = price of fruit

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

Now we multiplied c to 2.45 and 1.65 and added them together, because whatever the value of c is will give us the equivalence of the sum of 4.12 + 0.75.

Now to check if the equation is right, let's solve for c.

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

4.1c = 4.87

Now to get the value of c, we divide both sides of the equation by 4.1.

$\dfrac{4.1c}{4.1}=\dfrac{4.87}{4.1}$

c = 1.19

Now let's substitute the value of c in the equation to see if we got it right.

2.45(1.19) + 1.65(1.19) = 4.12 + 0.75

2.92 + 1.96 = 4.87

4.87 = 4.87

Therefore concluding that the value of c is 1.19.

Find all points on the portion of the plane x+y+z=5 in the first octant at which f(x, y, z) = xy2z2 has a maximum value.

irina1246 [14]

Lagrange multipliers:

$L(x,y,z,\lambda)=xy^2z^2+\lambda(x+y+z-5)$

$L_x=y^2z^2+\lambda=0$
$L_y=2xyz^2+\lambda=0$
$L_z=2xy^2z+\lambda=0$
$L_\lambda=x+y+z-5=0$

$\lambda=-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z$

$-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2\implies y=2x$ (if $y,z\neq0$ )

$-y^2z^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=2x$ (if $y,z\neq0$ )

$-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=y$ (if $x,y,z\neq0$ )

In the first octant, we assume $x,y,z>0$ , so we can ignore the caveats above. Now,

$x+y+z=5\iff x+2x+2x=5x=5\implies x=1\implies y=z=2$

so that the only critical point in the region of interest is (1, 2, 2), for which we get a maximum value of $f(1,2,2)=16$ .

We also need to check the boundary of the region, i.e. the intersection of $x+y+z=5$ with the three coordinate axes. But in each case, we would end up setting at least one of the variables to 0, which would force $f(x,y,z)=0$ , so the point we found is the only extremum.
