Nellie is analyzing a circle, y2 + x2 = 25, and a linear function g(x). Will they intersect?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the linear function?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok hold on, im drawint it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find the equation of the line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got y=1x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it passes through origin

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it will touch that circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so at a negative coordinate?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the answer b?

|dw:1438618147006:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is how it looks like

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh okay so the answer is C. because it intersects at a negative/positive x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dun put in your answers yet

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do u mean>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is how the functions look like

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know, so would the answer be C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Was I right?

OpenStudy (loser66):

To me, it's C

OpenStudy (mathmate):

The line is g(x)=y=x+5 So it will look like this: |dw:1438619181623:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok! So the answer is B!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk what option you have but you can take a look at either mathmate's graph or the one i posted

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright! Sorry, you were right!!!!! Thanks for all your help!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can I ask one more question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):
