Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Equation               25x² + 64y² = 1600

Process

1.- Divide all the equation by 1600

                             25x²/1600 + 64y²/ 1600 = 1600/1600

-Simplify

                              x²/64 + y²/ 25 = 1

2.- Equation of a horizontal ellipse

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

3.- Find a, b and c

    a² = 64             a = 8

    b² = 25             b = 5

-Calculate c with the Pythagorean theorem

                   a² = b² + c²

-Solve for c

                   c² = a² - b²

-Substitution

                   c² = 8² - 5²

-Simplification

                  c² = 64 - 25

                  c² = 39

-Result

                  c = √13

4.- Find the center

          C = (0, 0)

5.- Find the vertices

          V1 = (-8, 0)     V2 = (8, 0)

6.- Find the foci

          F1 = (-√13, 0)   F2 = (√13, 0)

Determine the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line parallel to y = x + 11 that passes through the point (–6, 2).
MArishka [77]
Line parallel to y=x+11 so slopes are equal then
y= x+b
Passing through the point C (-6;2) then C belongs to this line
yc=xc+b
b= 6+2
b= 8
So y intercept is equal to 8

Solve for w.<br> 2w=12-4w<br> Simplify your answer as much as possible.
aev [14]
So we have an equation:
2w=12-4w
Firstly, let's simplify, and divide all terms by 2:
w=6-2w
Now, we add 2w over to the other side:
3w=6
And finally, we divide both sides by 3:
w=2
Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to use trigonometric functions

cos 30 = adj. /hyp.

cos 30 = 12 / y

y = 12/cos 30 ≅13.86

tan 30 = opp./adj

tan30 = x / 12

x = 12 tan30 ≅6.93
