Find the Vertex Form x^2-10x+y^2+16=0

$x^{2} - 10 x + y^{2} + 16 = 0$

Step 1

Subtract $16$ from both sides of the equation.

$x^{2} - 10 x + y^{2} = - 16$

Step 2

Complete the square for $x^{2} - 10 x$ .

Use the form $a x^{2} + b x + c$ , to find the values of $a$ , $b$ , and $c$ .

$a = 1$

$b = - 10$

$c = 0$

Consider the vertex form of a parabola.

$a {(x + d)}^{2} + e$

Find the value of $d$ using the formula $d = \frac{b}{2 a}$ .

Substitute the values of $a$ and $b$ into the formula $d = \frac{b}{2 a}$ .

$d = \frac{- 10}{2 \cdot 1}$

Cancel the common factor of $- 10$ and $2$ .

Factor $2$ out of $- 10$ .

$d = \frac{2 \cdot - 5}{2 \cdot 1}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $2$ out of $2 \cdot 1$ .

$d = \frac{2 \cdot - 5}{2 (1)}$

Cancel the common factor.

$d = \frac{2 \cdot - 5}{2 \cdot 1}$

Rewrite the expression.

$d = \frac{- 5}{1}$

Divide $- 5$ by $1$ .

$d = - 5$

Find the value of $e$ using the formula $e = c - \frac{b^{2}}{4 a}$ .

Substitute the values of $c$ , $b$ and $a$ into the formula $e = c - \frac{b^{2}}{4 a}$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{{(- 10)}^{2}}{4 \cdot 1}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Raise $- 10$ to the power of $2$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{100}{4 \cdot 1}$

Multiply $4$ by $1$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{100}{4}$

Divide $100$ by $4$ .

$e = 0 - 1 \cdot 25$

Multiply $- 1$ by $25$ .

$e = 0 - 25$

Subtract $25$ from $0$ .

$e = - 25$

Substitute the values of $a$ , $d$ , and $e$ into the vertex form ${(x - 5)}^{2} - 25$ .

${(x - 5)}^{2} - 25$

Step 3

Substitute ${(x - 5)}^{2} - 25$ for $x^{2} - 10 x$ in the equation $x^{2} - 10 x + y^{2} = - 16$ .

${(x - 5)}^{2} - 25 + y^{2} = - 16$

Step 4

Move $- 25$ to the right side of the equation by adding $25$ to both sides.

${(x - 5)}^{2} + y^{2} = - 16 + 25$

Step 5

Add $- 16$ and $25$ .

${(x - 5)}^{2} + y^{2} = 9$

Find the Vertex Form x^2-10x+y^2+16=0
