Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image shows three quadratic equations in two variables and . Let's rewrite and solve each equation one by one.
-
Equation 1: This can be solved by completing the square for both and .
-
Equation 2: Again, we'll complete the square for both and to find the standard form of the circle or determine the center and radius.
-
Equation 3: We'll follow the same procedure of completing the square.
Let me solve these equations by completing the square for all three. I'll start now.Here are the solutions after completing the square for each equation:
-
Equation 1:
