Cevap: $(6, -6)$

Cevap

(6, -6)

The correct answer is

(6, -6)

. To find this, start with the coordinates of vertex

K(-2, 3)

. First, apply the reflection across the line

y = x

, which maps

(x, y) \rightarrow (y, x)

. This gives the intermediate coordinates

K'(3, -2)

. Second, apply the translation

3

units to the right and

4

units down, which maps

(x, y) \rightarrow (x + 3, y - 4)

. Adding

3

to the

x

-coordinate and subtracting

4

from the

y

-coordinate of the intermediate point yields the final coordinates

(3 + 3, -2 - 4) = (6, -6)

A custom printing company uses a linear relationship to determine the total cost of printing t-shirts. The table below displays the total cost, $C$ , in dollars, for printing $x$ t-shirts:

Number of Shirts ( $x$ )	Total Cost ( $C$ )
15	\$162.50
25	\$237.50
35	\$312.50

If the total cost consists of a one-time setup fee plus a constant charge per t-shirt, what is the one-time setup fee?

\$7.50

\$10.83

\$12.50

\$50.00

\$112.50

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: \$50.00

Cevap

The one-time setup fee is \$50.00.

The correct answer of \

50.00 is found by first determining the constant rate of change (slope) from the table, which is \$7.50 per shirt. Substituting this rate and the data point for 15 shirts into the linear model

C = mx + b

gives

162.50 = 7.50(15) + b

. Solving for the y-intercept

b

yields

50.00, which represents the one-time setup fee.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the constant charge per t-shirt (the slope,

m

) by finding the change in cost divided by the change in the number of shirts between two data points.

m = \frac{237.50 - 162.50}{25 - 15} = \frac{75.00}{10} = 7.50

Since the relationship is linear, the rate of change (cost per shirt) remains constant.

2

Write the linear equation representing the total cost:

C = 7.50x + b

, where

b

represents the one-time setup fee.

C = 7.50x + b

This sets up the slope-intercept form of the linear relationship.

3

Substitute one of the points from the table, such as

(15, 162.50)

, into the equation to solve for

b

.

162.50 = 7.50(15) + b

162.50 = 112.50 + b

b = 50.00

Using a known coordinate point allows us to isolate and solve for the unknown y-intercept (the setup fee).

Cevap: $(x + 4)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 144$

Cevap

(x + 4)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 144

Completing the square on

x^2 + y^2 - 6x + 8y - 11 = 0

gives

(x - 3)^2 + (y + 4)^2 = 36

. The center is

(3, -4)

and the radius is

6

. Reflecting

(3, -4)

across the line

y = x

swaps the coordinates, yielding the new center

(-4, 3)

. Doubling the radius yields

12

. The equation of the second circle is therefore

(x - (-4))^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 12^2

In the standard $(x, y)$ coordinate plane, a circle is tangent to the $x$ -axis at the point $(5, 0)$ . If the circle is also tangent to the line $y = \frac{4}{3}x$ and its center lies in the first quadrant, what is the $y$ -coordinate of the center of the circle?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2.5

Cevap

The

y

-coordinate of the center of the circle is

2.5

.

A circle tangent to the

x

-axis at

(5, 0)

has a center along the vertical line

x = 5

. Since the center is in the first quadrant, its coordinates can be represented as

(5, k)

where

k > 0

, and the radius is

k

. The distance from the center

(5, k)

to the line

4x - 3y = 0

must also equal the radius

k

. Using the point-to-line distance formula, we write

\frac{|4(5) - 3k|}{\sqrt{4^2 + (-3)^2}} = k

, which simplifies to

|20 - 3k| = 5k

. Since the center must lie in the first quadrant (

k > 0

), we solve

20 - 3k = 5k

to find

k = 2.5

. The alternative case

20 - 3k = -5k

gives

k = -10

, which lies in the fourth quadrant and is thus excluded.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the coordinates of the center and the radius of the circle based on the

x

-axis tangency.

Center:

(5, k)

and Radius:

r = k

(where

k > 0

).

A circle tangent to the

x

-axis at

(5, 0)

has its center directly above or below this point on the line

x = 5

. Since the center is in the first quadrant, its

y

-coordinate

k

must be positive, making the radius

k

.

2

Use the distance from the center to the second tangent line to write an equation for

k

.

\frac{|4(5) - 3k|}{\sqrt{4^2 + (-3)^2}} = k

The distance from the center

(5, k)

to the tangent line

4x - 3y = 0

must equal the radius of the circle.

3

Simplify the equation and solve for

k

.

|20 - 3k| = 5k

, leading to

k = 2.5

or

k = -10

.

Simplifying the denominator yields

5

. Multiplying both sides by

5

gives the absolute value equation, which resolves to

20 - 3k = 5k

or

20 - 3k = -5k

.

4

Select the valid solution using the quadrant constraint.

k = 2.5

The center must lie in the first quadrant, which requires

k > 0

. Thus,

k = -10

is discarded, and the correct value is

The correct answer is the square root of 34.

To find the distance from the midpoint of segment

M(2, 2)

and

P(5, 7)

, which is

d = \sqrt{(5 - 2)^2 + (7 - 2)^2} = \sqrt{3^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{9 + 25} = \sqrt{34}

A circle in the standard $(x, y)$ coordinate plane is defined by the equation $x^2 + y^2 - 6x + 4y - 12 = 0$ . A line $L$ passes through the center of this circle and is perpendicular to the line with equation $3x - 4y = 12$ . What is the $y$ -coordinate of the intersection point of line $L$ and the circle that has a positive $y$ -value?

Cevap: 2

Cevap

The y-coordinate of the intersection point with a positive y-value is 2.

Completing the square of the circle equation

x^2 + y^2 - 6x + 4y - 12 = 0

yields

(x-3)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 25

, giving center

(3, -2)

and radius

r = 5

. The given line

3x - 4y = 12

has a slope of

3/4

, so a perpendicular line

L

has a slope of

-4/3

. Since line

L

passes through the center

(3, -2)

and has a slope of

-4/3

, moving a distance of 5 units along this line (which corresponds to a horizontal change of

\pm 3

and vertical change of

\mp 4

) gives the intersection points

(6, -6)

and

(0, 2)

. The y-coordinate of the point with a positive y-value is 2.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Complete the square for the circle's equation to find its center and radius.

The equation is rewritten as

(x-3)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 25

, which represents a circle with center

(3, -2)

and radius

r = 5

.

Converting to standard form

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

gives the circle's center and radius.

2

Find the slope of the given line

3x - 4y = 12

and determine the slope of the perpendicular line

L

.

The slope of the given line is

3/4

. The slope of line

L

is the negative reciprocal:

-4/3

.

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals.

3

Find the intersection points of line

L

and the circle.

Since line

L

passes through the center

(3, -2)

and has a slope of

-4/3

, points on the line at a distance of the radius

r=5

are found by moving 3 units horizontally and 4 units vertically. This yields the points

(3 + 3, -2 - 4) = (6, -6)

and

(3 - 3, -2 + 4) = (0, 2)

.

The intersection points lie exactly one radius away from the center along the line.

4

Identify the y-coordinate with a positive value.

Between the points

(6, -6)

and

(0, 2)

, the point with a positive y-value is

(0, 2)

, so the y-coordinate is 2.

The question specifies the intersection point must have a positive y-value.

Cevap: $(2, 2)$

Cevap

The coordinates of the original point

P

are

(2, 2)

.

To find the coordinates of the original point

P(x, y)

, we apply the inverse transformations in reverse order to the final image point

P'(1, -2)

. First, we undo the translation of 4 units down and 3 units right by translating

P'

4 units up and 3 units left. This results in the intermediate coordinates

(1 - 3, -2 + 4) = (-2, 2)

. Next, we undo the reflection across the

y

-axis by reflecting

(-2, 2)

across the

y

-axis again (since a reflection is its own inverse). Changing the sign of the

x

-coordinate gives

(2, 2)

. Alternatively, setting up the equations

-x + 3 = 1

and

y - 4 = -2

and solving them yields

x = 2

and

y = 2

, which corresponds to the point

(2, 2)

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up equations to express the composite transformations of the point

P(x, y)

to

P'(1, -2)

.

Reflecting

P(x, y)

across the

y

-axis changes the sign of the

x

-coordinate, yielding

(-x, y)

. Translating this point 4 units down and 3 units right yields

(-x + 3, y - 4)

.

Establishing the mathematical relationship for each transformation is necessary to work backward to find the coordinates of the pre-image.

2

Equate the coordinates of the transformed point to the coordinates of the final image point

P'(1, -2)

.

-x + 3 = 1

and

y - 4 = -2

This sets up two independent linear equations that can be solved for the original coordinates

x

and

y

.

3

Solve the equations for

x

and

y

.

From

-x + 3 = 1

, we get

-x = -2

, which means

x = 2

. From

y - 4 = -2

, we get

y = 2

. Therefore, the coordinates of

P

are

(2, 2)

.

Solving these equations gives the exact coordinates of the original pre-image point.

The correct answer is 4

The slope of the line given by the equation

y = 3x - 5

3

. Since line

T

The correct value of

x

The midpoint

M

of

A(1, 3)

B\left(7, \frac{x}{2}\right)

has coordinates

\left(\frac{1+7}{2}, \frac{3 + \frac{x}{2}}{2}\right) = \left(4, \frac{x+6}{4}\right)

. The distance from

(0, 0)

to

M

is

\sqrt{4^2 + \left(\frac{x+6}{4}\right)^2} = \sqrt{\frac{89}{4}}

. Squaring both sides yields

16 + \frac{(x+6)^2}{16} = \frac{89}{4}

. Multiplying through by 16 gives

256 + (x+6)^2 = 356

, which simplifies to

(x+6)^2 = 100

x+6 = 10

x = 4

Squaring both sides gives

16 + \frac{(x+6)^2}{16} = \frac{89}{4}
