Answer:

The center of the circle is at the coordinates (-4,6).

The radius measures 14 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for a circle is as follows:

(x - x_{0})^{2} + (y - y_{0})^{2} = r^{2}

Where r denotes the radius and the center is specified at (x_{0}, y_{0})

Specifics for this question:

We need to complete the squares to convert the equation into its standard format:

So

x^{2} + 8x + y^{2} - 12y = 144

To complete the squares, each first degree term (8 and -12) is divided by two, yielding new terms (4 and -6). This allows us to express it as the square of (x+4) and (y-6). To balance the equation, we must incorporate the squares of 4 and -6 on the opposite side.

(x+4)^{2} + (y-6)^{2} = 144 + (4)^{2} + (-6)^{2}

(x+4)^{2} + (y-6)^{2} = 196

The center is located at the coordinates (-4,6).

The length of the radius is \sqrt{196} = 14

"Which pairs of angles in the figure below are vertical angles? Check all that apply.
lawyer [9240]
Angles known as vertical angles are those that are located across from each other at a common vertex where two lines intersect.

In the illustration, there exists only one pair of vertical angles.

These are Angle TSW and Angle ISN, both converging at the vertex labeled S.

<span>Answer is: B. Angle ISN and Angle TSW.</span>

AnnZ [9104]

Answer:

Terrence's

Step-by-step explanation:

The cut length of the square corresponds to the box height.

1. a

In Anya's approach: 8.5 - 1.5 = 7, 11 - 1.5 = 9.5; with the height being 1.5, the volume calculates as height x length x width = 1.5 x 9.5 x 7 = 99.75 square inches.

Terrence's method: 8.5 - 3 = 5.5, 11 - 3 = 8. Volume = 5.5 x 8 x 3 = 132 square inches. Clearly, 99.75 < 132 square inches, indicating Terrence's approach would yield a larger volume.

1. b

The dimensions of the box rely on the length, width, and height of the cardboard cutout, thus varying cutting measurements for the same cardboard size can produce different box dimensions.

2. Squares are cut from each corner, thus the combined size of the two squares on the cardboard must be less than the shorter cardboard side. The shorter side is 8.5 inches, which divided by 2 results in 4.25 inches, therefore squares cannot exceed this size. If squares are taken out measuring 4.25 inches, it will leave a strip 2.5 inches wide that cannot form a box.

To cut out squares of 5 inches, how you position them can cause overlap or extend beyond the cardboard. While 5 + 5 equals ten, making the longer side of 11 inches adequate, the 8.5 inches side allows zero room for the 10 inches.

babunello [8423]
The ratio of women to men is 34 to 382. To find the total sales, we compute 382 multiplied by 2.50, resulting in $955. For women, the calculation is 34 multiplied by 1.25, which equals $42.50. Therefore, summing these amounts gives us $955 + $42.50 = $997.50.

babunello [8423]

Quadratic equations find their application in various real-world scenarios such as: sports, bridges, projectile motion, the curvature of bananas, and so on.

Here are three images representing real-world instances of quadratics:

Example 1: A cyclist travels along a parabolic trajectory to leap over obstacles.

Example 2: A person throws a basketball towards the hoop, moving in a gently upward path described by a quadratic curve.

Example 3: A football player kicks the ball upward, which follows a quadratic path as it travels a distance.

Given that P = (-5, 5) and Q = (-13, 10), find the component form and magnitude of 2 vector PQ.
tester [8842]
Define the unit vectors along the x and y axes as \hat{i}, \, \hat{j} correspondingly.

Consequently, the vector from P to Q is
\vec{PQ} = (-13+5)\hat{i} + (10-5)\hat{j} = -8\hat{i} + 5\hat{j}
In terms of components, vector PQ is represented as (-8,5).

The magnitude of vector PQ can be calculated as
√[(-8)² + 5²] = √(89) = 9.434

Answer:
Thus, vector PQ is (-8, 5), and its magnitude equals √89 (or 9.434).
