The equations of ellipses whose major axis lengths are twice their minor axis lengths are

  • (x - h)²/4b² + (y - k)²/b² = 1 and
  • (x - h)²/b² + (y - k)²/4b² = 1

To answer the question, we need to know what an ellipse is.

<h3>What is an ellipse?</h3>

An ellipse is part of a conic section.

<h3>The equation of the ellipse</h3>

The equation of an ellipse centered at (h,k) with major axis on the x-axis and major axis length, 2a and minor axis length 2b is

(x - h)²/a² + (y - k)²/b = 1

<h3>The equation of ellipse with major axis x-axis</h3>

The equations of ellipses whose major axis lengths are twice their minor axis lengths with ellipse centered at (h,k) with major axis on the x-axis. Since the major axis is twice the length of the minor axis, a = 2b.

So, (x - h)²/a² + (y - k)²/b² = 1

(x - h)²/(2b)² + (y - k)²/b² = 1

(x - h)²/4b² + (y - k)²/b² = 1

<h3>The equation of ellipse with major axis y-axis</h3>

The equations of ellipses whose major axis lengths are twice their minor axis lengths with ellipse centered at (h,k) with major axis on the y-axis. Since the major axis is twice the length of the minor axis, a = 2b.

So, (x - h)²/b² + (y - k)²/a² = 1

(x - h)²/b² + (y - k)²/(2b)² = 1

(x - h)²/b² + (y - k)²/4b² = 1

So, the equations of ellipses whose major axis lengths are twice their minor axis lengths are

  • (x - h)²/4b² + (y - k)²/b² = 1 and
  • (x - h)²/b² + (y - k)²/4b² = 1

N the slope-intercept form you use the slope of the line and the y-intercept to express the linear function.
y=mx+b
y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Example
Graph the equation
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
rewrite in slope-intercept form
y=2x+1
y=2x+1
Identify the slope and the y-intercept
m = 2 and b = 1
Plot the point corresponding to the y-intercept, (0,1)
picture23
The m-value, the slope, tells us that for each step to the right on the x-axis we move 2 steps upwards on the y-axis (since m = 2)
picture24
And once you have your second point you can just draw a line through the two points and extend it in both directions.
picture25
You can check to see that the line you've drawn is the correct one by substituting the coordinates of the second point into the original equation. If the equation holds true than the second point is correct.
Our second point = (1, 3)
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
Our second point is a solution to the equation i.e. the line we drew is correct.
A line that passes through the origin has a y-intersect of zero, b = 0, and represents a direct variation.
y=mx
y=mx
In a direct variation the nonzero number m is called the constant of variation.
You can name a function, f by using the function notion
f(x)=mx+b
f(x)=mx+b
f(x) is another name for y and is read as "the value of f at x" or "f of x". You can use other letters than f to name functions.
A group of functions that have similar characteristics are called a family of functions. All functions that can be written on the form f(x) = mx + b belong to the family of linear functions.
The most basic function in a family of functions is called the parent function. The parent function of all linear functions is
f(x)=x

Logan's only debt obligations are a car loan payment of $512 and a credit card payment of $70 every month. What is the minimum a
Assoli18 [71]
The most used payment plan to avoid being in debt today is the 20% payment plan. In this payment , you divide your income into several parts.
20% for paying up debts, 10 % for savings, and 70% for everything else.

So, assuming that x is the minimum amount of money,  we know that

$ 512 + $70 =  20% . X

$ 582 = 0.2 . x

$ 582 / 0.2 = x

x = $ 2910
