Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

These are right triangles, and the second triangle has two known sides. We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find y.

A^2 + B^2 = C^2 is Pythagorean theorem.

3^2 + y^2 = 7^2\\\\\\9 + y^2 = 49\\\\\\y^2 = 40\\\\\\y = 2\sqrt{10}

Now, we want to find x.

We know the triangles are similar.

4.5 divided by 3 is 1.5. This is the scale factor for the triangle.

If we multiply y by 1.5, we will get 5x.

5x = 1.5(2\sqrt{10} )\\\\\\5x = 3\sqrt{10} \\\\\\Divide.5.on.both.sides.to.get.x.\\x = \frac{3\sqrt{10} }{5}

Those are the answers and how to get them.

A nursery owner buys 9 panes of glass to fix some damage to her greenhouse. The 9 panes cost
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: $11.80 for another 4 panes of glass.

Step-by-step explanation: We know that 9 panes of glass cost $26.55, but we should first find how many dollars would it cost per pane of glass, or 1.

So, we can divide 26.55 by 9 to find the price per 1 pan of glass.

26.55/9 = 2.95, or $2.95 per pane of glass.

Now, we want to know how much it will cost for 4 panes of glass. Simply multiply 2.95 by 4.

2.95 x 4 = 11.8, or $11.80 for another 4 panes of glass.

Which equation represents a circle that contains the point (-5, -3) and has a center at (-2, 1)?
Evgen [1.6K]

The equation (x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 25 represents a circle that contain the point (-5 , -3) and has a center at (-2 , 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle of center (h , k) and radius r is:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

The given is:

  • The center of the circle is (-2 , 1)
  • The circle passes through point (-5 , -3)

The length of the radius is the distance from the center of the circle

to a point on the circle

∵ The formula of the distance is d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

∵ The center of the circle is (-2 , 1)

∵ The circle passes through point (-5 , -3)

∴ r=\sqrt{[(-5)-(-2)]^{2}+[(-3)-(1)]^{2}}

∴ r=\sqrt{[-3]^{2}+[-4]^{2}}

∴ r=\sqrt{9+16}

∴ r=\sqrt{25}

∴ r = 5

∵ The equation of the circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

∵ The center of the circle is (-2 , 1)

∴ h = -2 and k = 1

∵ r = 5

∴ r² = (5)² = 25

- Substitute the values of h , k , r² in the equation of the circle

∴ (x - -2)² + (y - 1)² = 25

∴ (x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 25

The equation (x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 25 represents a circle that contains

the point (-5 , -3) and has a center at (-2 , 1)
