Answer:

  x²/2166784 +y²/2159989 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the semi-axes and the eccentricity of an ellipse is ...

  e = √(1 -b²/a²)

In order to write the desired equation we need to find 'b' from 'e' and 'a'.

__

<h3>semi-minor axis</h3>

Squaring the equation for eccentricity gives ...

  e² = 1 -b²/a²

Solving for b², we have ...

  b²/a² = 1 -e²

  b² = a²(1 -e²)

<h3>ellipse equation</h3>

Using the given values, we find ...

  b² = 1472²(1 -0.056²) = 2166784(0.996864) ≈ 2159989

The desired equation is ...

  x²/2166784 +y²/2159989 = 1

Your sister can get $30 per day, d, for selling clothes at the market. But she has to pay $60 at first for renting a stand. You
Alex

Answer:

6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

pay 60 = -60

Let d = the number of days

30d - 60 = sister

20d = me

Equation:

30d - 60 = 20d                    Move 30 to the other side

-30d          -30d

-60 = 20d - 30d                    Combine liked terms

-60 = -10d                                

-10     -10                                Divide

d = 6
