find an equation of the circle that has center (-5, 0) and passes through (4, -6).

PLEASE HELP !!!!

Answers

Answer:

[tex](x+5)^2+y^2=117[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a circle

[tex](x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2[/tex]

(where (a, b) is the center and r is the radius)

Given:

center = (-5, 0)

[tex]\implies (x-(-5))^2+(y-0)^2=r^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies (x+5)^2+y^2=r^2[/tex]

To find r², input the coordinates of the given point (4, -6) into the equation:

[tex]\implies (4+5)^2+(-6)^2=r^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies 81+36=r^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies r^2=117[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the circle is:

[tex]\implies (x+5)^2+y^2=117[/tex]

Answer:

Standard form = (x + 5)² + y² = 117

General Form = x² + 10x + y² - 92 = 0

Explanation:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

center: (h, k)

Find radius using:

[tex]\sf Distance \ between \ two \ points = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf radius : \sqrt{(-5-4)^+(0-(-6))^2} \ = \ 3\sqrt{13} \ \ units[/tex]

Find equation inserting values:   Given center: (-5, 0)

⇒ (x - (-5))² + (y - 0)² = (3√13)²

⇒ (x + 5)² + y² = 117

⇒ x² + 10x + 25 + y² - 117 = 0

⇒ x² + 10x + y² - 92 = 0

Leah's family took a road trip to Mount Rushmore. Leah fell asleep 44% of the way through the trip. If Leah fell asleep after they had travelled 132 miles, what was the total length of the trip?

Answers

Answer:190.08 milesStep-by-step explanation:

How you do it is add the 44% of 132 to 132 (132 + (132×44%))

First you have to find out how much 44% is. Change it into decimal form (0.44) and then multiply the two together. 132 × 0.44 is 58.08 miles. Then you add that to the rest of the trip, 132 miles. (132 + 58/08 is 190.08)

PLEASE HELP WITH THE PHOTO LINKED IM REALY BAD AT NEGATIVE NUMBERS!!!

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a double negative (ie. 5 -(-10)) they cancel eachother out and become a plus. If you have + and - together, its always a minus, if you have + and + or - and -, its always plus.

Since in 4-(-3), the two minuses cancel each other out and become a plus, you move 3 to the right, since right is the positive direction.

subtracting a negative number changes the equation to an addition.

4 -(-3) becomes 4 + 3 = 7


you would start at 4 and move 3 places to the right.

Cosine rule

The expression for representing cosine rule is expressed as:

c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos C

Given the following parameters

a = 26

b = 50

c = 29

Substitute

c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos C

29² = 26² + 50² - 2(26)(50) cos C

841 = 676 + 2500 - 2600cosC

three numbers are in the ratio 1:3:5 and their sum is 270. find the largest number.

Answers

Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

⇒ The numbers can be denoted as x, 3x, and 5x

=============================================================

Solving :

⇒ It mentions their sum is 270

⇒ x + 3x + 5x = 270

⇒ 9x = 270

⇒ x = 30

=============================================================

Largest number :

⇒ 5x

⇒ 5(30)

150

Answer :

Largest number is 150.

Step by step explaination :

Here we have been given with the ratio of three numbers that is 1 : 3 : 5. So let us assume a common factor for them , we are assuming it as y.

Therefore,

First number = 1 → 1 × y = 1y Second number = 3 → 3 × y = 3yThird number = 5 → 5 × y = 5y

Sum of them is 270 :

>> 1y + 3y + 5y = 270

>> 4y + 5y = 270

>> 9y = 270

>> y = 270 / 9

>> y = 90 / 3

>> y = 30

Henceforth, value of y is 30.

Finding out first number :-

>> First number = 1y

>> First number = 1 × 30

>> First number = 30

★ Finding out second number :-

>> Second number = 3y

>> Second number = 3 × 30

>> Second number = 90

★ Finding out third number :-

>> Third number = 5y

>> Third number = 5 × 30

>> Third number = 150
