Help? What is the standard form of the equation of the given circle with center A(4, 8)?
I'm pretty sure 2.5 is the slope or acting slope? If so, you could use the point-slope formula to get the standard form equation.
does this help?
(x − 4)2 + (y − 8)2 = 2.5 (x + 4)2 + (y + 8)2 = 6.25 (x + 4)2 + (y + 8)2 = 2.5 (x − 4)2 + (y − 8)2 = 6.25
idk why it's messing up like that..
@Ghostgate
those are the answer choices btw .
hello?
Well having the equations I guess allows you to work it out. Plug (4, 8) into each equation and solve. I'll do that real quick: (x - 4)2 + (y − 8)2 = 2.5 (4 - 4)2 + (8 - 8)2 = 2.5 (0)2 + (0)2 = 2.5 0 + 0 = 2.5 0 = 25 = False (x + 4)2 + (y + 8)2 = 6.25 (4 + 4)2 + (8 + 8)2 = 6.25 (8)2 + (16)2 = 6.25 16 + 32 = 6.25 48 = 6.25 = False.
Honestly I'm not really sure.
I'm wanting to say it's C...
Okay thanks anyways !
I'm sorry I couldn't help you get the answer. :/
