To find: the center of the circle.

Answer to Problem 55AYU
Therefore, the coordinates of the center
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The line
The line
Since the line containing the center and the tangent line are perpendicular, the product of their slopes will be
Let
Consider the tangent line
Rearrange the equation to the form
Subtract
Divide both side of the equation by
Therefore, the slope
The product of
So, the slope
Let
So, a point-slope form of the equation of the line containing the center can be written using
Consider the tangent line
Comparing the equations, get the slope of the tangent line as
The product of
Therefore, the slope
Let
So, a point-slope form of the equation of the containing the center can be written using
Solve the equations for the line containing the center to get the coordinates of the center.
From the equation
Substitute
Remove the parentheses using the distributive law and simplify.
Subtract
Therefore,
Substitute the value of
Therefore, the coordinates of the center
Conclusion:
Therefore, the coordinates of the center

- Find and classify the critical points of z = (x² – 8x) (y² – 6y). Local maximums: Local minimums: Saddle points: - For each classification, enter a list of ordered pairs (x, y) where the max/min/saddle occurs. Enter DNE if there are no points for a classification.arrow_forwardSuppose that f(x, y, z) = (x − 2)² + (y – 2)² + (z − 2)² with 0 < x, y, z and x+y+z≤ 10. 1. The critical point of f(x, y, z) is at (a, b, c). Then a = b = C = 2. Absolute minimum of f(x, y, z) is and the absolute maximum isarrow_forwardThe spread of an infectious disease is often modeled using the following autonomous differential equation: dI - - BI(N − I) − MI, dt where I is the number of infected people, N is the total size of the population being modeled, ẞ is a constant determining the rate of transmission, and μ is the rate at which people recover from infection. Close a) (5 points) Suppose ẞ = 0.01, N = 1000, and µ = 2. Find all equilibria. b) (5 points) For the equilbria in part a), determine whether each is stable or unstable. c) (3 points) Suppose ƒ(I) = d. Draw a phase plot of f against I. (You can use Wolfram Alpha or Desmos to plot the function, or draw the dt function by hand.) Identify the equilibria as stable or unstable in the graph. d) (2 points) Explain the biological meaning of these equilibria being stable or unstable.arrow_forward
