Answer:  (x-9)^2 + (y-12)^2 = 225\\\\

This is the same as writing (x-9)^2 + (x-12)^2 = 225

========================================================

Explanation:

Any circle equation fits the template of (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2\\\\

The center is (9,12) which tells us the values of h and k in that exact order.

h = 9

k = 12

To find the radius r, we need to find the distance from the center (9,12) to a point on the circle. The only point we know on the circle is the origin (0,0).

Apply the distance formula to find the distance from (9,12) to (0,0)

d = \sqrt{ (x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{ (9-0)^2+(12-0)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{ (9)^2+(12)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{ 81+144}\\\\d = \sqrt{ 225}\\\\d = 15\\\\

The distance from (9,12) to (0,0) is 15 units. Therefore, r = 15

An alternative to finding this r value is to apply the pythagorean theorem. The distance formula is effectively a modified version of the pythagorean theorem.

---------------------

Since h = 9, k = 12 and r = 15, we can then say:

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2\\\\(x-9)^2 + (y-12)^2 = 15^2\\\\(x-9)^2 + (y-12)^2 = 225\\\\

which is the equation of this circle.

Which is bigger: 17.5% or 1/6
elena-s [515]


In order to find this out, let's convert both of them into percents. Since 17.5 is already a percent, we only have to convert 1/6 into a percent. To convert 1/6 into a percent, you have to divide the numerator by the denominator. If you do that, you will get 0.1666..... as a repeating decimal. Now, multiply the decimal by 100 or just move the decimal 2 spaces to the right to get the percent. If you do that, you will get 16.6%. Since it is a repeating decimal, you can round it to 16.7%. So, 17.5% is larger than 1/6.

Hope it helps :)

A group of 485 people take a canoe trip. They fill up all avalible canoes that each hold 3 people with 273 people. The rest of t
Jobisdone [24]
Answer:
3c=273
c=91
2c= 212
C= 106
c= 91+ 106= 197
so they will need 197 canoes total

Why:
So first you have to determine a set variable to represent the number of canoes, I chose C. Then you make an equation to represent the number of canoes 273 people will use if they group into 3's, from this I got 3c=273. Solve for C and get 91.
The remainder of the group which is 485-273= 212 will use canoes in groups of 2's. To represent this, 2c=212. Solve for C and get 106. Combine 106 and 91 to get the total number of canoes.
