We have the following equation:

r= \frac{5}{3+2sin(\theta)}

If we graph this equation we realize that in fact this is an ellipse with major axis matching the y-axis. So we can recognize these characteristics:

1. Center of the ellipse: 

The midpoint C<span> of the line segment joining the foci is called the </span>center<span> of the ellipse. So in this exercise this point is as follows:
</span>
C(0, -2)

2. Length of major axis:

The line through the foci is called the major axis<span>, so in the figure if you go from -5, at the y-coordinate, and walk through this major axis to the coordinate 1, the distance you run is the length of the major axis, that is:</span>

6 \ units

3. Length of minor axis:

The line perpendicular to the foci through the center is called the minor axis. So in the figure if you go from -2, at the x-coordinate, and walk through this minor axis to the coordinate 2, the distance you run is the length of the minor axis, that is:

4 \ units

4. Foci:

Let's find c as follows:

c=\sqrt{a^{2}-b^{2}}=\sqrt{3^{2}-2^{2}}=\sqrt{5}

Then the foci are:

f_{1}=(0, \sqrt{5}-2)

f_{2}=(0, -\sqrt{5}-2)

Answer:

  7×10⁻¹ +6×10⁻² +5×10⁻³

Step-by-step explanation:

Place value in any place-value number system increases by a factor of the base for each place to the left of the "decimal" point. It is reduced by a factor of the base for each place to the right of the "decimal" point.

For base-10 numbers, the powers of 10 are -1, -2, -3, ... as you go to the right of the decimal point. Hence the number 0.765 decomposes as ...

  7×10⁻¹ +6×10⁻² +5×10⁻³

Pls help!!
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Perimeter = 17a

Area = 30 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2b + 8 = 10b + 5 + a = 15ab + 2a - b = 17a

Area = 2 + 8 = 10 + 2 = 12 × 5 = 60 simplify

I honestly don't know if this is correct, I hope it is
