Given:
The equation of ellipse is

To find:
The length of the minor axis.
Solution:
The standard form of an ellipse is
...(i)
where, (h,k) is center, if a>b, then 2a is length of major axis and 2b is length of minor axis.
We have,
...(ii)
On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

Taking square root on both sides.

Consider only positive value of b because length cannot be negative.

Now,
Length of minor axis = 
= 
= 
So, the length of minor axis is 8 units.
Therefore, the correct option is B.
First we want to calculate exactly how much money Bernice sells on a daily basis, so we can determine how many days it'll take to earn 2,430 dollars. We can do this by multiplying the amount of shells she sells every day by the amount she sells them for. So 135 sea shells multiplied by 3 dollars.
<u>135 * 3</u>
This comes up to 405 dollars every day, quite a significant amount considering she's selling shells. Now, divide 2,430 dollars by 405 dollars. This will give us the final result.
<u>2,430 / 405</u>
It will take Bernice exactly 6 days to earn 2,430 dollars.
The magnitude of an earthquake that is 35 more times intense than a standard earthquake is 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
I be the intensity for which we have to find magnitude
S is the standard intensity of earthquake
And
M is the magnitude
The intensity of standard earthquake is 10.

The formula for magnitude is:
