Equation of an ellipse

→having center (0,0) , vertex ((\pm a ,0) and covertex (\pm b ,0) and focus (\pm c ,0) is given by:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2}=1

As definition of an ellipse is that locus of all the points in a plane such that it's  distance from two fixed points called focii  remains constant.

Consider two points (a,0) and (-a,0) on Horizontal axis of an ellipse:

Distance from (a,0) to (c,0) is = a-c = F_{1}

Distance from (-a,0) to (c,0) is = a + c = F_{2}

F_{1} + F_{2} = a -c + a +c

          = a + a

        = 2  a  →(Option A )

The figure below shows the representation of this problem.

So, for the figure </span><span>If you add the lengths of the focal radii of an ellipse will produce a constant value equal to 2a that is the line in red.</span>

Christine has 28 jazz songs and classical songs on a playlist. The play list has 3 times as many jazz songs as classical songs.
Alborosie
I assume you mean the total number of jazz and classical songs combined is 28 songs?
3 times as many jazz as classical:
Means there is a ratio of 3 jazz to 1 classical, which means there are essentially 4 parts (3+1=4). So if we divide 28/4=7. This gives one part = number of classical songs, jazz is 3 parts so 7*3=21 jazz songs.
7 times as many rock as classical:
From above we know there are 7 classical songs. 7*7=49 rock songs.
Jazz=21 songs
Rock=49 songs

The smaller triangle was dilated to form the larger triangle. What is the value of x? A smaller triangle has side lengths of 3 a
Ainat [17]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

As the triangle was dilated, all its sides increased by the same ratio.

So, as one side was 3 and then increased to 9, the ratio is:

ratio = 9 / 3 = 3

So, using this same ratio for the other side given, we can find the value of x.

The larger side of length x+1 is 3 times greater than the small side of length 5:

x + 1 = 3 * 5

x + 1 = 15

x = 14
