Given end points of diameter,
(x1,y1)=(-3,-4)
(x2,y2)=(0,0)
Now,
the equation of circle is,
(x-x1)(x-x2)+(y-y1)(y-y2)=0
or, (x+3)(x-0)+(y+4)(y-0)=0
or, x^2 +3x +y^2 +4y =0
or, x^2 +y^2 +3x + 4y=0
which is in the form of x^2 +y^2 +2gx +2fy + c=0
where,
g=3/2
h=2
c=0
Now,
Answer:
3 gallons.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.
Let us convert our given time in minutes.
1 hour= 60 minutes.
1/2 hour= 30 minutes.
So 2 hours= 120 minutes.
Let us find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes by dividing 3/4 by 30.
Now let us multiply 1/40 by 120 to find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 120 minutes(2 hours).
Therefore, Jen picked 3 gallons of strawberries in 2 hours.
