The correct Answer is:
To find the coordinates of the point \( Q \) where the straight line touches the circle, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equation of the line The equation of the line with slope \( m = 2 \) and y-intercept \( 5 \) can be written as: \[ y = 2x + 5 \] ### Step 2: Write the equation of the circle The given equation of the circle is: \[ x^2 + y^2 + 16x + 12y + c = 0 \] To find the center and radius, we can rewrite it in standard form. Completing the square for \( x \) and \( y \): \[ x^2 + 16x + y^2 + 12y + c = 0 \] Completing the square for \( x \): \[ x^2 + 16x = (x + 8)^2 - 64 \] Completing the square for \( y \): \[ y^2 + 12y = (y + 6)^2 - 36 \] Substituting back, we get: \[ (x + 8)^2 - 64 + (y + 6)^2 - 36 + c = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ (x + 8)^2 + (y + 6)^2 + (c - 100) = 0 \] Thus, the center of the circle is \( (-8, -6) \). ### Step 3: Find the slope of the radius at point \( Q \) Since the line is tangent to the circle at point \( Q \), the radius to point \( Q \) is perpendicular to the tangent line. The slope of the radius can be calculated as: \[ \text{slope of radius} = \frac{y_1 + 6}{x_1 + 8} \] where \( (x_1, y_1) \) are the coordinates of point \( Q \). ### Step 4: Set up the perpendicularity condition Since the slope of the tangent line is \( 2 \), the product of the slopes of the tangent and radius must equal \(-1\): \[ 2 \cdot \frac{y_1 + 6}{x_1 + 8} = -1 \] This simplifies to: \[ 2(y_1 + 6) = - (x_1 + 8) \] or \[ 2y_1 + 12 = -x_1 - 8 \] Rearranging gives us: \[ 2y_1 + x_1 + 20 = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] ### Step 5: Substitute \( y_1 \) from the line equation From the line equation \( y = 2x + 5 \), we can express \( y_1 \) in terms of \( x_1 \): \[ y_1 = 2x_1 + 5 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] ### Step 6: Substitute \( y_1 \) into Equation 1 Substituting Equation 2 into Equation 1: \[ 2(2x_1 + 5) + x_1 + 20 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ 4x_1 + 10 + x_1 + 20 = 0 \] \[ 5x_1 + 30 = 0 \] Solving for \( x_1 \): \[ x_1 = -6 \] ### Step 7: Find \( y_1 \) Substituting \( x_1 = -6 \) back into Equation 2 to find \( y_1 \): \[ y_1 = 2(-6) + 5 = -12 + 5 = -7 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the coordinates of point \( Q \) are: \[ Q = (-6, -7) \]

To find the coordinates of the point \( Q \) where the straight line touches the circle, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equation of the line The equation of the line with slope \( m = 2 \) and y-intercept \( 5 \) can be written as: \[ y = 2x + 5 \] ...
