PLEASE HELP ME! I will fan/medal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If MN is the diameter of a circle with M(-3,-4) and N(-7,-14), find the center of the circle. a. (-2,-5) b. (-4,-10) c. (-5,-9) d. -10,-18)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use this formula ;) \[C=\left(\frac{x_m+x_n}{2},\frac{y_m+y_n}{2}\right)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've tried and my answer isn't one of my answer choices :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[C=\left(\frac{-3+(-7)}{2},\frac{-4+(-14)}{2}\right)\]\[C=\left(-\frac{10}{2},-\frac{18}{2}\right)\]\[\boxed{C=(-5,-9)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

See, this time I got (-4,-10) ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-3-7=-10\]\[\frac{-10}{2}=-5\]\[-4-14=-18\]\[\frac{-18}{2}=-9\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohhh, okay my bad! Could you help me with 3 more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can try.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, well here's the first one. Calculate the equation of the line between the points (-6,-1) and (2,-1). a. y=-1 b. x=-1 c. y=-8x-1 d. y=-x-8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Second Where P is (-2,6), R is (-10,4), and segment RT is a diameter of Circle P, find the coordinates of T. a. (-4,12) b. (6,8) c. (8,2) d. (8,6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Third and Final What is the y-intercept of 12x + 4y= 10? a. 2.5 b. -3 c. 4 d. -12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ikram002p last 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First, you have to use this formula to find the m\[y-y_o=m*(x-x_o)\]When you find the m, you should replace one point in \[(x_o,y_o)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that for the 1st one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, let me try it:) Give me a minute.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@D3xt3R could you help me after :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ninjasandtigers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's the last 3 tiger

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ArmyBoy97 I can help you, but now I've to go to the GYM

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please real quick just two questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

second one: RT is the diameter so passes from R, through P, to T. The distance along X from R to P will be equal to the distance along X from P to T. Same thing along Y. Distance along X axis from R to P is +8. Distance along Y axis from R to P is +2. So, distance along X from P to T is +8. Distance along Y from P to T is +2. So T = (Xp + 8, Yp + 2) = (-2 + 8, 6 + 2) = (6, 8)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK, tag me there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks Tiger! Do you know the other two?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The third one is simple, the y-intercept will happens when x=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry, i was being a pack mule with groceries :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's okay :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-6, -1) and (2, -1) First find the slope of the line: y2 - y1 over x2 - x1 Once you find the slope try putting it into point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then change the point-slope into standard form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay let me try it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is there even a slope?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or would it just be 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no slope :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it y=-8x-1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on i have to do a dba with my math teacher

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis. But in order to get to standard form (y = mx + b) you should put an equation is point-slope form(y - y1 = m(x - x1) So you pick one point. Lets go with (-6, -1). Now just substitute the values into the equation: (-6, -1) m= slope = 0 y - (-1) = 0(x - (-6)) y + 1 = 0(x + 6) y + 1 = 0(x + 6) y + 1 = (0 * x) + (0 * 6) y + 1 = 0x y=-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ugh, I thought I had it, too!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha its ok :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How about this one? What is the y-intercept of 12x + 4y= 10? a. 2.5 b. -3 c. 4 d. -12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12x+4y=10 4y=-12x+10 y=-3x+5/2 y intercept = 2.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have 5 more, can you help me? You don't have to if you don't want to :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, i can :), but my teacher will be calling me back at anytime so bear with me :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can do that! Haha. Okay: 1. Which line has the equation y=-x + 3? a. DF b. DE c. GE d. GF 2. Which has the equation x-3y=3? a. DF b. DE c. GE d. GF

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1:b 2:c
