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)

A test is worth 80 points. Multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points, and
gavmur [86]

Answer:

<u>There are 10 multiple-choice questions and 15 short-answer questions in the test</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Test worth 80 points

Multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points

Short-answer questions are worth 4 points

Multiple-choice questions + Short-answer questions = 25

2. How  many multiple-choice questions are there?

Let's solve this problem, this way:

m = Multiple-choice questions

s = Short-answer questions

Our equations system is:

m + s = 25

2m + 4s = 80

Solving for m in the 1st equation:

m + s = 25

m = 25 - s

Substituting m in the 2nd equation and solving for s:

2m + 4s = 80

2 * ( 25 - s) + 4s = 80

50 - 2s + 4s = 80

2s = 80 - 50

2s = 30

<u>s = 30/2 = 15</u>

Substituting s in the 1st equation and solving for m:

m = 25 - 15

<u>m = 10 </u>

<u>There are 10 multiple-choice questions and 15 short-answer questions in the test</u>
