The equation of the circle that has a diameter with endpoints (12, 3) and(-18,3) is x² + y² + 6x - 6y - 207 = 0

<h3>Coordinates of center of circle</h3>

Since the endpoints of the diameter are (x₁, y₁) = (12,3) and (x₂, y₂) = (-18,3), the coordinates of the center of the circle are the midpoints of the diameter. So, the midpoints are

  • x = (x₁ + x₂)/2 = (12 + (-18))/2 = (12 - 18)/2 = -6/2 = -3 and
  • y = (y₁ + y₂)/2 = (3 + 3)/2 = 6/2 = 3.

So, the coordinates of the center of the circle are (-3, 3)

<h3>The radius of the circle</h3>

The radius of the circle r = √[(x₁ - h)² + (y₁ - k)²] where

  • (x₁, y₁) = coordinates of end of diameter = (12, 3) and
  • (h, k) = coordinates of center of circle = (-3, 3)

So, substituting the values of the variables into r, we have

r = √[(x₁ - h)² + (y₁ - k)²]

r = √[(12 - (-3))² + (3 - 3)²]

r = √[(12 + 3)² + 0²]

r = √[15² + 0²]

r = √15²

r = 15

<h3>The equation of the circle</h3>

The equation of a circle with center (h,k) is given by

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r² where r = radius of circle.

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(x - (-3))² + (y - 3)² = 15²

(x + 3)² + (y - 3)² = 15²

x² + 6x + 9 + y² - 6y + 9 = 225

x² + 6x + y² - 6y + 9 + 9 - 225 = 0

x² + y² + 6x - 6y - 207 = 0

The equation of the circle that has a diameter with endpoints (12, 3) and(-18,3) is x² + y² + 6x - 6y - 207 = 0

What's the conversion factor used to convert inches to yards
larisa [96]
We have to determine the conversion factor used to convert inches to yards. Yard and inch are US and British customary length units. We know that 1 yard = 3 feet = 36 inches. So we just have to divide 1 by 36. 1 : 36 = 0.027777.... ( more accurate with more decimal digits ). For example: 54 yards = 54 * 0.0277777 = 1.4999958 ( approx. 1.5 ).

A right square pyramid is shown. The height of the pyramid is 6 units. The distance from the center of the base of the pyramid t
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

<em>AD is 6.5 units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached.

From the diagram, you can see that the dotted triangle is a right angled triangle with side AD as the hypotenuse.

To get AD, we will use the pythagoras theorem as shown;

Hyp² = Opp² + Adj²

AD² = 6²+2.5²

AD² = 36 + 6.25

AD² = 42.25

AD = √42.25

<em>AD = 6.5</em>

<em>Hence the measure of length segment AD is 6.5 units</em>

Y= - x+2 Y=3x-4<br> Estimate the solution to the system of equations
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

x=\frac{3}{2}\\ y=\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-x+2\\y=3x-4

Let's solve one of them for x.

y=3x-4

Add 4

y+4=3x

Divide by 3.

x=\frac{y+4}{3}

Now, plug the value of y in the formula, or you can plug the value of x in the other equation. I'll take this one.

x=\frac{y+4}{3}

x=\frac{(-x+2)+4}{3}

x=\frac{-x+2+4}{3}

x=\frac{-x+6}{3}

Multiply by 3 to get rid of the denominator.

3x=-x+6

add x

3x+x=6

Combine like terms;

4x=6

Divide by 4.

x=\frac{6}{4}

Simplify.

x=\frac{3}{2}

Now that you found the value of x, replace it in any of the equations to find y.

y=-x+2\\y=-(\frac{3}{2})+2\\ y=-\frac{3}{2}+2

y=\frac{-3+2*2}{2} \\y=\frac{-3+4}{2} \\y=\frac{1}{2}

Proof:

y=3x-4\\\frac{1}{2}=3(\frac{3}{2})-4\\\frac{1}{2}=(\frac{9}{2})-4

\frac{1}{2}=\frac{9-4*2}{2}

\frac{1}{2}=\frac{9-8}{2}

\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}
