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

Dr,Goode prescribes 0.2 grams of cold medicine for Donald. This medicine comes in tablets that are 0.5 grams or 0.05 grams. Shou

Using proportions, it is found that Donald should order 4 of the 0.05 gram tablets.

This question is solved by proportions, using a rule of three.

4 tablets are needed, and they should combine for 0.2 grams. How many grams is there going to be on one tablet?

The rule of three is:

1 tablet - x grams

4 tablets - 0.2 grams

Applying cross multiplication:

$4x = 0.2$

$x = \frac{0.2}{4}$

$x = 0.05$

Donald should order 4 of the 0.05 gram tablets.

If a line of one billion people stretched 327,495 miles long, the average shoulder width of the people in the line is A feet. Ro

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

1.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume you want to find A. And we presume the people are standing shoulder-to-shoulder.

(327,495 mi)/(10^9 persons) = (3.27495×10^5 mi)/(10^9 persons) × (5280 ft/mi)

= 1.7291736×10^9 ft/(10^9 persons)

= 1.7292736 ft/person

≈ 1.7 ft/person
