We know that
<span>Since the focus and vertex are above and below each other, rather than side by side, I know that this ellipse must be taller than it is wide.
</span>Then 
a²<span> will go with the </span>y<span> part of the equation
</span>Also, since the focus is 8 <span>units below the center, then </span><span>c = 8
</span>since the vertex is 17<span> units above, then </span><span>a = 17
</span>The equation b²<span> = a</span>²<span> – c</span>²<span> gives me
</span>b²=17²-8²-----> b²=225
the equation is
y²/a²+x²/b²=1------> y²/289+x²/225=1

the answer is
y²/289+x²/225=1

see the attached figure

F(x)=−6x+7, evaluate f(x+2)
lakkis [162]

Answer:

f(x+2) = - 6x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have f(x) =- 6x + 7, then we also have f(x+2) = - 6(x+2) + 7 = - 6x - 12 + 7 = - 6x - 5.

One British pound was worth 1.5761 Canadian dollar.If a hotel room coat 126 pounds,what must be paid in Canadian dollars.​
Kamila [148]

Answer:

198.5886   or technically 198.58 or 198.59 because you can't have a decimal of a penny.

Step-by-step explanation:

One British pound was worth 1.5761 Canadian dollar, meaning that every pound needed is worth 126 Canadian dollar.

That means you can multiply 1.5761 by 126 to get the Canadian dollar price.

126 x 1.5761 = 198.5886

198.5886 is the Canadian price
