Answer:

A. 7.2 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the base is 7.2 centimeters. The area of a rectangle is length*width

The length is unknown but the area is known. To find the length, all we have to do is divide the area from the height.

The working is as follows :

Area = 90 cm²

Height = 12.5 cm

Length = ?

Length = Area ÷ Height

= 90 ÷ 12.5

= 7.2cm

X = t/2. t = 2x
y = 3t^3 - 1
y = 3(2x)^3 -1

y = 24x^3 -1

Q9: Determine e, k, and identify the type of conic for r= 12/7-cos theta .

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

eccentricity; e = 1/7

k = 12

Conic section; Ellipse

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step would be to write the polar equation of the conic section in standard form by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 1/7;

$r=\frac{\frac{12}{7} }{1-\frac{1}{7}cos theta}$

The polar equation of the conic section is now in standard form;

The eccentricity is given by the coefficient of cos theta in which case this would be the value 1/7. Therefore, the eccentricity of this conic section is 1/7.

The eccentricity is clearly between 0 and 1, implying that the conic section is an Ellipse.

The value in the numerator gives the value of k; k = 12
