A: The center is the mid point of the diameter. So, the center of the circle will be the midpoint of points P and Q. The coordinates of the midpoint are the averaged coordinates of the endpoints.

So, the x-cooardinate of the center is the average of the x-coordinates of P and Q:

$C_x = \dfrac{P_x+Q_x}{2}=\dfrac{-10+4}{2}=\dfrac{-6}{2}=-3$

Try to do the same thing with the y coordinates, and you'll get the y-coordinate C_y . This first part will be over, because the circle will be point

C=(C_x,C_y)

B: The radius is exactly half the diameter. So, we find the length of the diameter, and we divide it by 2. To find the length of the diameter, we use the standard formula for the distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(P_x-Q_x)^2+(P_y-Q_y)^2}=\sqrt{(-10-4)^2+(-2-6)^2}=\sqrt{260}=2\sqrt{65}$

Divide this length by 2 and you'll get the radius.

C: At this point, we have both the radius and the coordinates of the center. The equation of the circle depends on these two parameters, and it is

(x-C_x)^2+(y-C_y)^2=r^2

Substitute C_x and C_y with the coordinates of the center (found in point A.) and with the radius (found in point B.) and you'll have the equation of the circle.

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
