Write the equation of a vertical ellipse with a major axis of 20, a minor axis of 12, and a center of (6, 3)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The equation of a vertical ellipse is  ((x-6)^2)/(100) + ((y-3)^2)/(36)   = 1\n

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given:

Length of major axis:  20

⇒ 2 a  = 20  , or , a = 10

Length of minor axis:  12

⇒ 2 b  = 12  , or , b = 6

Also, center (h,k)  = (6,3)

Now, STANDARD EQUATION OF ELLIPSE :

((x-h)^2)/(a^2) + ((y-k)^2)/(b^2)   = 1\n

Now, substituting the values, a, b , h and k in above expression, we get:

((x-6)^2)/(10^2) + ((y-3)^2)/(6^2)   = 1\n

or, ((x-6)^2)/(100) + ((y-3)^2)/(36)   = 1\n

Hence, the equation of a vertical ellipse is  ((x-6)^2)/(100) + ((y-3)^2)/(36)   = 1\n

Explain how can you use the Associative Property to evaluate (7*50)*4.

Answers

The associative property is defined as follows: (a*b)*c = a*(b*c), that is, ... How can you use the Commutative property to find 5 x 4? Commutative property ... Which multiplication properties help evaluate 77 x 25 x 4? Distributive. Unless it's 77 x ...

The Associative Property of Mulitplication states that you can solve the expression by switching the group order. Since the current group is (7*50), we can change the group to (50*4).

From this: (7*50)*4

To This: 7*(50*4)

Hope this helps! Please correct me if I have made any mistakes!

The perimeter is the outside of the shape, or in other words the total length of the sides. So if you count the total number of sides you get a perimeter of 16 units (assuming one block length is one unit)

Of the 50 U.S. states, 4 have names that start with the letter W.What percentage of U.S. states start with the letter W?

Answers

4/50
Multiply that by 2 to get you denominator to 100.
8/100
Then your percentage would be 8%
There are 50 states and 4 have names starting with W. (Washington, West Virginia, Wisconson, and Wyoming)
