The equation of the ellipse is \frac{x^2}{49}  + \frac{y^2}{65}  = 1

<h3>How to determine the ellipse equation?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Foci: (-4, 0) and (4, 0)
  • Length of major axis = 14

The above means that:

c = 4 and

The semi-major axis, a = 7 i.e 14/2

Calculate b using

b = \sqrt{c^2 + a^2

So, we have:

b = \sqrt{4^2 + 7^2

b = \sqrt{65

Square both sides

b^2 = 65

The standard form of the ellipse is represented as:

\frac{x^2}{a^2}  + \frac{y^2}{b^2}  = 1

This gives

\frac{x^2}{7^2}  + \frac{y^2}{65}  = 1

Evaluate

\frac{x^2}{49}  + \frac{y^2}{65}  = 1

Hence, the equation of the ellipse is \frac{x^2}{49}  + \frac{y^2}{65}  = 1

P what equation in slope-intercept form represents the line that passes through the points (3,5) and (-9,2)
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

y =\frac{1}{5}x+\frac{22}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line, use the slope formula to first find the slope.

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{5-2}{3--9}=\frac{3}{3+12}=\frac{3}{15}=\frac{1}{5}

Substitute m=1/5 and the point (3,5) into point slope formula.

y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y-5=\frac{1}{5}(x-3)\\y-5=\frac{1}{5}x -\frac{3}{5}\\y =\frac{1}{5}x+\frac{22}{5}

What method can you use to find the area of the composite figure? Select three options.
Reptile [31]
A composite figure is made up of several simple geometric figures such as triangles, rectangles, squares, circles, and semicircles. To find the area of a composite figure, separate the figure into simpler shapes whose area can be found. Then add the areas together.
