Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope you use the slope formula which is y2-y2/x2-x1
And to find the y intercept you use y=mx +b. Yous substitute the slope as m and you substitute a point from the line to find b. Which is the y intercept
The answer is <span>a.)(x - 4)2 = 3.
(x - a)</span>² = b can be expressed as:
x² - 2ax + a² = b ⇒ x² - 2ax + a² - b = 0
Our equation is x² - 8x + 13 = 0.
The general formula is x² - 2ax + (a² - b) = 0
Thus:
8x = 2ax and a² - b = 13
Divide both sides of the first equation (8x = 2ax) by x:
8 = 2a ⇒ a = 8 ÷ 2 = 4
Replace a in the second equation (a² - b = 13):
4² - b = 13 ⇒ b = 4² - 13 = 16 - 13 = 3
Now when we have a and b, let's just replace them in the general equation:
(x - a)² = b
(x - 4)² = 3
If the radius of the circle is 4 than the area would be 50.27.
If you are saying that 4 is the diameter, than divide that by 2 to get the radius which is 2. The area for this would be 12.57.
I don’t know which one you mean but hope this helps :))
It would be C. The right one makes it look horrible compared to the other, if someone did not look at the graph.
