Answer:

the length of major semiaxes a = 8.45 cm  and minor semiaxes b= 5.63 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of ellipse = π*a*b

Let major semiaxes = a and minor semiaxes = b

then a:b = 3:2

a/b = 3/2

=> a = 3/2 b

Putting in the value of formula

150 = π * (3/2)b * b

150 = 3.14 * 1.5b * b

150= 4.71 b^2

150/4.71 = b^2

=> b^2 = 31.8

b= 5.63

a = 3/2 * b

a = 1.5 * 5.63

a = 8.45

So, the length of major semiaxes a = 8.45 cm  and minor semiaxes b= 5.63 cm.

Given that tan^2 theta=3/8,what is the value of sec theta?
algol [13]

Answer:

The value of SecФ is  \pm \sqrt{\frac{11}{8}} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as for trigonometric function :

tan²Ф = \frac{3}{8}

Or, tanФ = \sqrt{\frac{3}{8} }

∵ tanФ = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

So,  \frac{Perpendicular}{Base} =  \sqrt{\frac{3}{8} }

So, Hypotenuse² = perpendicular² + base²

or, Hypotenuse² = ( \sqrt{3} )² + ( \sqrt{8} )²

Or,  Hypotenuse² = 3 + 8 = 11

Or,  Hypotenuse = ( \sqrt{11} )

Now SecФ = \frac{Hypotenuse}{Base}

or, SecФ = \frac{\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{8}} = \sqrt{\frac{11}{8} }

<u>Second Method</u>

Sec²Ф - tan²Ф = 1

Or, Sec²Ф = 1 +  tan²Ф

or, Sec²Ф = 1 +  \frac{3}{8}

Or, Sec²Ф = \frac{11}{8}

Or,  SecФ = \pm \sqrt{\frac{11}{8}}

Hence The value of SecФ is  \pm \sqrt{\frac{11}{8}} . Answer

For #1 we’re adding/subtracting/multi polynomials I need the answer for #1 its kind of shaded off
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

- 6x² - 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(2x³ - 4x² - 3x + 5) + (- 2x³ - 2x² + x - 4)

Both parenthesis are distributed by 1 thus just remove them

= 2x³ - 4x² - 3x + 5 - 2x³ - 2x² + x - 4  ← collect like terms

= - 6x² - 2x + 1

The average salary is $18,725

To find the answer add up each job's salary then divide by the number of jobs.

28,700 + 18,600 + 14,66 + 13,00 = 74,900

Then divide 74,900 by 4 ( added 4 numbers )
