Answer:
The Team started at 1st and 10 but finished at 4th and 22, so they lost 12 yards in 3 plays.
Step-by-step explanation:
All points along the circle with be the distance of the radius from the center...so the radius can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem..
r^2=(4-1)^2+(6-2)^2
r^2=9+16
r^2=25
r=5
The equation of the circle can be expressed as:
r^2=(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2 where (h,k) correspond to the center of the circle, (2,1) in this case.
(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2=25
if you wanted it in a more standard form...
(y-1)^2=25-(x-2)^2
(y-1)^2=25-x^2+4x-4
(y-1)^2=-x^2+4x+21
y-1=(-x^2+4x+21)^(1/2)
y=1(+/-)(-x^2+4x+21)^(1/2)
The way I figured this one out was saying that if it takes 2lbs to stretch it to 12 inches and 5lbs to stretch to 18 inches that means that 3 additional pounds = 6 inches. Therefore, each additional pound is 2 inches. We know already that with 2 lbs it was 12 inches in length and we can also say that 2 lbs = 4 inches. So subtract 4 from 12 and you end up with the answer of 8 inches.
Given:
descends at a rate of 320 feet per minute for 3 minutes.
320 feet per minute * 3 minutes = 960 feet
Total change in altitude is 960 feet. Since it is descending, I believe it would be a negative 960 feet.
