Question

Help with word problems please.

Answer 1

2 ducks and 1 pelican

Answer 2

= 1 good meal

Answer 3

hehe

Answer 4

o..o why eat a pelican though

Answer 5

\(\large \bf (x-{\color{brown}{ h}})^2+(y-{\color{brown}{ k}})^2=r^2\qquad center\ ({\color{brown}{ h,k}})\)

Answer 6

they really stretch to make these word problems, don't they? why don't they just ask for the center of the circle?

Answer 7

general equation for circle
\[(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2\]
center is (h,k)

look at equation they gave you and try to find h and k

Answer 8

well it looks llike h is -4 and k is 0

Answer 9

@satellite73 ...because someone will always ask, "why do we have to know where center of circle is?"

Answer 10

apparently it is in outer space where god made some sort of rectangular coordinate system, but only used two dimensions.

Answer 11

@DarkBlueChocobo , careful its (x-h) so h = positive 4

Answer 12

ohhh i see

Answer 13

its a perfect universe where all orbits are circular and on horizontal plane :)

Answer 14

so would it be (4,0) for (h,k)?

Answer 15

yes

Answer 16

Can i test out one more just to make sure?

Answer 17

whut those question marks

Answer 18

(x − 7)^2 + (y − 1)^2 = 36

Answer 19

T_T

Answer 20

(x-7)^2 + (y-1)^2=36

Answer 21

so it would be (7,1) for the center

Answer 22

yep you got it

Answer 23

Yay thank you

Answer 24

how about
(y+3)^2 + (x-2)^2 = 4

Answer 25

(3,2)?

Answer 26

nope .... i reversed the order to see if you were paying attention
h is always with x
k is always with y

it would be (2,-3)

Answer 27

T-T i didnt even realize that you switched it

Answer 28

y+3 = y -(-3) --> thats why k = -3

Answer 29

wows
