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)

How many times can 8 go into 60
nignag [31]

The correct answers are:

(1) If EXACT number is required, then 7.5.

(2) If multiple of 8 is required then the answer will be 7 times with a remainder of 4.

Explanation:

First you need to express it in the form of equation to make things simpler as follows:

8 * y = 60

We need to find y; to do so, divide 60 by 8:

y = \frac{60}{8}

y = 7.5

Now if you want to find the whole number, then the answer will be 7 times, with 4 left over.
