The distance from the center to where the foci is located is 8 units

<h3>How to determine the distance</h3>

The formula associated with the focus of an ellipse is given as;

c² = a² − b²

where;

  • c is the distance from the focus to center
  • a is the distance from the center to a vertex , major axis is 10 units
  • b is the distance from the center to a co-vertex, minor axis is 6 units

Let's use the Pythagorean theorem

Hypotenuse square = opposite square + adjacent square

Substitute the values into the formula

c² = 10² - 6²

Find the square

c² = 100 - 36

c² = 64

Find the square root

c = √64

c = 8

Thus, the distance from the center to where the foci is located is 8 units

1.3 lesson help please
Airida [17]

Answer:

1. 125

2. 25

3. 40

4. 39

First question:

(15-10)^2 + (15-5)^2

parentheses first to get 5^2 + (15-5)^2

exponents next to get 25 + (15-5)^2

parentheses again 25 + 10^2

exponents again 25 + 100 = 125

Second question:

simplify the exponents (3 *3) + (4 * 4) + (2 * 2) to get 9 + 16 + 4 = 29

Third question:

simplify in the parentheses 6 1/7 - 1/7 = 6

divide 60 by 6 to get 10

multiply 10 by 4 to get 40!

Fourth question:

simplify the fractions to get 1/3 + 8/3 = 3

multiply the 3 by 13 to get 39
