Star M is about 2x10^14 kilometers from Earth. Star P is about 4x10^13 kilometers from Earth. Based on these values, how many times farther from Earth is Star M than Star P?

answer: translate the circles so they share a common center point and dilate circle y by a scale factor of 3.

∡ eia and ∡ kij are congruent

step-by-step explanation:

the answer would be d.

step-by-step explanation:

move all variables to the left side and all constants to the right side

(x−3)^2+(y−1)^2=16

this is the form of a circle. use this form to determine the center and radius of the circle.

( x − h ) 2 + ( y − k ) 2 = r 2

match the values in this circle to those of the standard form. the variable   r   represents the radius of the circle,   h   represents the x-offset from the origin, and   k   represents the y-offset from origin.

r = 4

h = 3

k = 1

the center of the circle is found at   ( h , k ) .

center:   ( 3 , 1 )

these values represent the important values for graphing and analyzing a circle.

center:   ( 3 , 1 ).

radius:   4

1. when "a" is a root of a polynomial, (x -a) is a factor of it. for the three roots given, the factors of the desired polynomial are (x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3).

in order to make the leading coefficient be negative, we need to multiply this product by a negative number. any negative number will do, but we choose a small (magnitude) value that will eliminate the fraction: -2.

then

f(x) = -2(x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3) = -(x +2)(2x -1)(x -3)

= -(2x² +3x -2)(x -3)

= -(2x³ -3x² -11x +6)

f(x) = -2x³ +3x² +11x -6

2. a graph created by the desmos on-line graphing calculator is shown, and the zeros are highlighted.

3. as indicated in part 1, the multiplier of this equation can be anything and the zeros will remain the same. you want a negative leading coefficient, so the "anything" is restricted to any of the infinite number of numbers that will make that be the case.
