Answer:
one solution
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
3 (x-1) = 2x + 9
3x - 3 = 2x + 9
subtract 2x from each side of the equation:
x - 3 = 9
add 3 to each side:
x = 12
x² + y² = 9 is the equation of a circle with center (0, 0) and radius 3.
This puts the vertices at (-3, 0), (3, 0), (0, -3), and (0, 3).
When is the tangent line vertical? <em>when it passes through the x-axis.</em>
Answer: (-3, 0), (3, 0)
