The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the values of \( x \) and \( y \) given that the points \( (x, 3) \) and \( (3, 5) \) are the endpoints of a diameter of a circle, and the center of the circle is at \( (2x, y) \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Points**: - Let point A be \( (x, 3) \). - Let point B be \( (3, 5) \). 2. **Find the Midpoint**: - The center of the circle, which is the midpoint of the diameter, can be calculated using the midpoint formula: \[ \text{Midpoint} = \left( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right) \] - Here, \( (x_1, y_1) = (x, 3) \) and \( (x_2, y_2) = (3, 5) \). - Therefore, the midpoint (center of the circle) is: \[ \left( \frac{x + 3}{2}, \frac{3 + 5}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{x + 3}{2}, 4 \right) \] 3. **Set the Midpoint Equal to the Given Center**: - The center of the circle is also given as \( (2x, y) \). - Thus, we can set up the following equations from the x-coordinates and y-coordinates: \[ \frac{x + 3}{2} = 2x \quad \text{(1)} \] \[ 4 = y \quad \text{(2)} \] 4. **Solve for \( x \)**: - From equation (1): \[ \frac{x + 3}{2} = 2x \] - Multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate the fraction: \[ x + 3 = 4x \] - Rearranging gives: \[ 3 = 4x - x \implies 3 = 3x \implies x = 1 \] 5. **Solve for \( y \)**: - From equation (2): \[ y = 4 \] 6. **Final Values**: - Thus, the values of \( x \) and \( y \) are: \[ x = 1, \quad y = 4 \] ### Conclusion: The final answer is \( (x, y) = (1, 4) \). ---
