The correct Answer is:
To find the center of the circle whose normals are given by the equation \( x^2 - 2xy - 3x + 6y = 0 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rearranging the Equation We start with the equation: \[ x^2 - 2xy - 3x + 6y = 0 \] ### Step 2: Factoring the Equation We can rearrange the equation by grouping terms: \[ x^2 - 2xy - 3x + 6y = 0 \] We can factor out \( x \) from the first two terms and \( -3 \) from the last two terms: \[ x(x - 2y) - 3(x - 2y) = 0 \] This gives us: \[ (x - 2y)(x - 3) = 0 \] ### Step 3: Finding the Values of \( x \) From the factored form, we can set each factor to zero: 1. \( x - 2y = 0 \) → \( x = 2y \) 2. \( x - 3 = 0 \) → \( x = 3 \) ### Step 4: Finding the Corresponding Values of \( y \) Now, we substitute \( x = 3 \) into the equation \( x = 2y \) to find \( y \): \[ 3 = 2y \implies y = \frac{3}{2} \] ### Step 5: Finding the Center of the Circle Now we have the values of \( x \) and \( y \): - \( x = 3 \) - \( y = \frac{3}{2} \) Thus, the center of the circle is: \[ (3, \frac{3}{2}) \] ### Final Answer The center of the circle is \( (3, \frac{3}{2}) \). ---
