which variable must be repeated on the x axis?
Answers
Answer:
The independent variable belongs on the x-axis (horizontal line) of the graph and the dependent variable belongs on the y-axis (vertical line).
Explanation:
In any data set, the independent or X-variable is the one that was chosen or manipulated by the experimenter. For example, time is always an independent variable (and goes on the x-axis) because the experimenter is choosing which time points to take measurements at—1 second intervals, 5 minute intervals, etc.
°°° Solution °°°
Bx 2 + y 2 = 41
The △OAB is a right angled triangle, right angled at O.
We know that every inscribed angle that subtends a diameter is a right angle.
In the above case the circle circumscribing △OAB will have AB as its diameter.
If A=(h,0) and B=(0,k)
Then the circumcentre is
C = 2h , 2k = (x,y).
Therefore 2x=h and 2y=k
Now OA=∣h∣=a and OB=∣k∣=b
Since a 2 +b 2 = 1
Hence h 2+k 2=1(2x)
2 +(2y) 2=1
Or 4(x 2 +y 2 )=1
Or x 2 +y 2
= 41
