You can put this solution on YOUR website! tangent to 3x+4y-15=0 at (5,0) contains (0,4) find the equation of a circle?
-----------------
The slope of 3x + 4y - 15 = 0 is -3/4
The center of the circle is on the line perpendicular to 3x + 4y - 15 = 0 thru the point (5,0)
Find the eqn of that line.
-------------
The center is equidistant from (5,0) and 0,4)
======
Can you do that?
