Here's the solution for 48 [ intersection points of a circle and a line ] : https://www.desmos.com/calculator/iipiffr3er
Here's 52 : https://www.desmos.com/calculator/wqgjvkt18q
And 53 : https://www.desmos.com/calculator/zvh42ht4u5
The last two are tangent lines to circles
You need not graph these equations to solve them (but the directions tell you to do so). In case you are in the situation where you are, this is what you can do:
\(x^2+y^2=13\)
\(y=-x+5\)
If I were you, I would solve this by substitution. In other words, since y=-x+5, you can substitute that into the y in the other equation, so you would get. Then, simplify:
\(x^2+(-x+5)^2=13\)
\(x^2+x^2-10x+25=13\)
\(2x^2-10x+12=0\)
To make things simpler, factor out a 2 because that is the GCF of the left side and then factor (if possible):
\(2(x^2-5x+6)=0\) x^2-5x+6 happens to be factorable
\(2(x-3)(x-2)=0\) Set each factor set to 0 and solve.
\(x-3=0 \hspace{1cm} x-2=0\)
\(x=3\hspace{1cm}x=2\)
Now, plug each x-value to solve for the y-values. I'll pick the second equation as that one has simpler calculations overall:
\(y=-(3)+5\hspace{1cm}y=-(2)+5\)
\(y=2\hspace{1cm}y=3\)
Therefore, your solution set is:
\((2,3)\) and \((3,2)\)
Let's do that for the other problems for extra practice.
Let's list the original equations for problem 52:
\((x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=18\)
\(y=x+8\)
Substitute x+8 into the first equation and simplify:
\((x+1)^2+((x+8)-1)^2=18\)
\((x+1)^2+(x+7)^2=18\)
\(x^2+2x+1+x^2+14x+49=18\) Combine like terms
\(2x^2+16x+32=0\) Factor out a GCF of 2 to simplify things
\(2(x^2+8x+16)=0\)
Now, I could factor x^2+8x+16, but this trinomial is special: it is a perfect square trinomial. I know this because I can work backwards. The x^2 term and 16 term are both perfect squares. The square root of x^2 equals x, and the square root of 16 equals 4. 4x*2=8x. If all three conditions are met (like it is here), then it is a perfect square trinomial:
\(2(x+4)(x+4)=0\)
\(x+4=0\)
\(x=-4\)
In this case, x only has one answer. This is actually easier than the previous problem because we only have to find one y-value instead of two. Now, plug in the x-value into the second equation:
\(y=x+8\)
\(y=-4+8\)
\(y=4\)
Therefore, the solution set is:
\((-4,4)\)
YOu can apply this method for the next one, too...
