Answer:

eccentricity; e = 1/7

k = 12

Conic section; Ellipse

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step would be to write the polar equation of the conic section in standard form by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 1/7;

$r=\frac{\frac{12}{7} }{1-\frac{1}{7}cos theta}$

The polar equation of the conic section is now in standard form;

The eccentricity is given by the coefficient of cos theta in which case this would be the value 1/7. Therefore, the eccentricity of this conic section is 1/7.

The eccentricity is clearly between 0 and 1, implying that the conic section is an Ellipse.

The value in the numerator gives the value of k; k = 12

If $1600 earned simple interest of $56.24 in 2 months, what was the simple interest rate? The simple interest rate is % (Do not

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

$\$21.1$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for principal amount P , time period T and rate of interest $R\%$ , simple interest is given by $S.I. = \frac{P\times R\times T}{100}$ .

Here ,

$P=\$1600\\T=2\,\,months=\frac{2}{12}\,\,years=\frac{1}{6}\,\,years\\S.I=\$56.24$

To find : simple interest rate i.e., $R\%$

On putting values of $P\,,\,T\,,\,S.I$ in formula , we get $S.I. = \frac{P\times R\times T}{100}$

$56.24 = \frac{1600\times R\times 1}{600}\\R=\frac{56.24\times 600 }{1600}=\frac{703\times 3}{100}=\$21.09$

Now we need to round off the answer to the nearest tenth .

So, simple interest rate is % = $\$21.09$ = $\$21.1$
