Answer:

\sf (x+2)^2+(y-2)^2=2

Step-by-step explanation:

If RS is the diameter of the circle, then the midpoint of RS will be the center of the circle.

\sf midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_s-x_r}{2}+x_r,\dfrac{y_s-y_r}{2}+y_r \right)

             \sf =\left(\dfrac{-1-(-3)}{2}+(-3),\dfrac{3-1}{2}+1 \right)

             \sf =(-2, 2)

Equation of a circle:   \sf (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

(where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius)

Substituting found center (-2, 2) into the equation of a circle:

\sf \implies (x-(-2))^2+(y-2)^2=r^2

\sf \implies (x+2)^2+(y-2)^2=r^2

To find \sf r^2, simply substitute one of the points into the equation and solve:

\sf \implies (-3+2)^2+(1-2)^2=r^2

\sf \implies 1+1=r^2

\sf \implies r^2=2

Therefore, the equation of the circle is:

\sf (x+2)^2+(y-2)^2=2

You drive 70 miles per hour but then slow your speed by 15 miles per hour. You then return to your speed of 70 miles per hour. W

Driving 70 miles per hour.
Slow your speed means decrease in speed=
70+(-15)=70-15=55 miles/ hr
And then return to speed of 70 miles/hr means
add 15 miles to the speed.
We get
70+(-15)+15 =70 miles / hr

The population of the town increased from 175000 to 262500 in a decade. What is the average percent increase of population per y
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

The population of the town increased from 175000 to 262500 in a decade.

⇒ In 10 years , population increased from 175000 to 262500

⇒% increase = \frac{262500 - 175000}{175000}× 100% = \frac{87500}{175000}×100% = 0.5×100% = 50%

Now,

Average % increase = \frac{percent increase}{Total years} = \frac{50}{10}% = 5%

∴ we get

Average percent increase of population per year = 5%

Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color, but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be th
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

<h2>Option 2 is the right answer.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to check if the two characteristics, <u>having blue eyes and being deaf are independent of each other or not</u>.

The above two characteristics will be independent if [Probability of being deaf with blue eyes] = {Probability of being deaf } {Probability of having blue eyes}

Now, the probability of having blue eyes is \frac{31}{100}.

The probability that the Dalmatians will be deaf is \frac{38}{100}.

The probability of being deaf with blue eyes is \frac{31}{100} \times\frac{42}{100}.

Since, 38 is not equals to 42, the two characteristics are not independent.
