Answer:

"The Hulk is not green AND the Iron Man is not red"

Step-by-step explanation:

DeMorgan's laws state that the negation of an statement whose structure is "p OR q" is "not p AND not q", and similarly, that the negation of an statement whose structure is "p AND q" is "not p OR not q". The statement we want to negate in our case is "The Hulk is green OR the Iron Man is red". This is an statement whose structure is of the type "p OR q", where p would be "The Hulk is green", and q would be "the Iron Man is red". So according to DeMorgan's laws, its negation should be the statement "not p AND not q". To put them in common english, not p would be "The Hulk is NOT green", and not q would be "The Iron Man is NOT red". So the statement "not p AND not q" is simply "The Hulk is not green AND the Iron Man is not red".

The minimum and maximum distances from a focus to a point on an ellipse occur when that point on the ellipse is an endpoint of t

Sauron [17]

The answer is True.

Explanation:
Let a = major axis
Let b = minor axis
Let c = focal length.

Consider the right focus, located a distance c from the center of the ellipse (at the origin).
From the right focus to the right point on the major axis is equal to a-c. This is the minimum distance.
From the right focus to the left point on the major axis is equal to a+c. This is the maximum distance.
