What is the slope intercept form of -1/2 and 1, -1/2 being the slope??

1 answer:

7 0

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept.

If the given slope is -1/2, then this equation becomes y = (-1/2)x + b.

You do not say that b=1.

But if we let b=1, then the equation becomes y = (-1/2)x + 1.

A circle is centered at the point O (0,0) and has a radius of the square root of 38?

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The point (6,1) lies inside the circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a Circle

A circle centered at the point (h,k) and with radius r, can be expressed with the equation:

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

The center of the given circle is (0,0) and the radius is $r=\sqrt{38}$ , thus the equation of the circle is:

$(x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=(\sqrt{38})^2$

Simplifying:

$x^2+y^2=38$

Each point (x,y) meeting the condition of the equation lies exactly on its circumference. For example, the point $(\sqrt{2},6)$ belongs to the circumference, but the origin (0,0) is inside the circle, and the point (5,5) is outside the circle.
