Co-ordinate Geometry A-level: The equation of a circle is x^2+y^2+6x-2y-10=0, find the centre and radius of the circle, the co-ordinates of point(s) where y=2x-3 meets the circle and hence state what we can deduce about the relationship between them.

We have that x 2 + y 2 + 6x - 2y - 10 = (x+3) 2 + (y-1) 2 - 20 = 0 (step was motivated by the equation of a general circle (x-a) 2 + (y-b) 2 = r 2 )We know that the general circle has centre at (a,b) and the...

Solve the systems of equations x+8y=2 2y-x=18

We pick one of the equations and isolate the y on one side. x+8y = 22y=18+x We express the equation 2 in terms of y, dividing it by 2. x+8y = 2y = (18+x)/2 which is the same than x+8y = 2y = 9 + x/2 We plug ...
