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

Answer:

  f(x) = (x -2)(x -1+3i)(x -1-3i)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use synthetic division to find the remaining quadratic factor in the cubic. Then any of the usual means of solving the quadratic will help you find its linear factors.

In the attached, I show the synthetic division, the factoring to real numbers, and the solution that finds the complex linear factors by completing the square.

Of course, you know that for zeros a, b, and c, the linear factors are ...

  f(x) = (x -a)(x -b)(x -c)

Here, we have a=2, b=1-3i, c=1+3i.

  f(x) = (x -2)(x -1+3i)(x -1-3i)

Which equation best represents a trend line for the scatter plot? These are fractions BTW.
kenny6666 [7]
(1, 8) and (7,1)
slope = (8-1)/(1-7) = -7/6
y = mx + b
b = y - mx
b = 8 - (-7/6)(1)
b = 8 + 7/6
b = 55/6

equation
y = -7/6(x) + 55/6

answer
<span>y=−7/6 x+55/6 </span>
