Q. (x7)2+(y+5)2=16(x-7)^{2}+(y+5)^{2}=16\newlineThe given equation represents a circle in the xyxy-plane. If (x,5)(x,-5) is a point on the circle, what is a possible value of xx ?\newline
  1. Given Circle Equation: We are given the equation of a circle: x\(-7)^22 + (y+55)^22 = 1616\. We are also given a point on the circle where the y-coordinate is (-5\)\. We need to find the corresponding x-coordinate.
  2. Substitute y=5y = -5: Substitute y=5y = -5 into the equation of the circle to find the possible values of xx.(x7)2+(5+5)2=16(x-7)^2 + (-5+5)^2 = 16(x7)2+0=16(x-7)^2 + 0 = 16(x7)2=16(x-7)^2 = 16
  3. Take Square Root: Take the square root of both sides of the equation to solve for xx.(x7)2=±16\sqrt{(x-7)^2} = \pm\sqrt{16}x7=±4x - 7 = \pm4
  4. Solve for x: Solve for x by adding 77 to both sides of the equation.\newlinex=7±4x = 7 \pm 4
  5. Two Possible Solutions: There are two possible solutions for xx.x=7+4x = 7 + 4 or x=74x = 7 - 4x=11x = 11 or x=3x = 3
