I assume you're trying to say y=mx+b
m = slope multiplied on the x
b = y - intercept

Is 30/12 and 40/16 equivalent?

Flura [38]

30/12 in simplest form is 5/2 (cause 6 * 5 = 30 and 6 * 2 = 12)
40/16 in simplest form is 5/2 (cause 8 * 2 = 16 and 8 * 5 =40)
so yes they're equivalent;
30/12 = 40/16
Hope that helps :D have a nice day!

The moon is a sphere with radius of 959 km. Determine an equation for the ellipse if the distance of the satellite from the surf

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

$\frac{x^2}{1316^2}+\frac{y^2}{1669^2}=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

An ellipse is the locus of a point such that its distances from two fixed points, called foci, have a sum that is equal to a positive constant.

The equation of an ellipse with a center at the origin and the x axis as the minor axis is given by:

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

Since the distance of the satellite from the surface of the moon varies from 357 km to 710 km, hence:

b = 357 km + 959 km = 1316 km

a = 710 km + 959 km = 1669 km

Therefore the equation of the ellipse is:

$\frac{x^2}{1316^2}+\frac{y^2}{1669^2}=1$

What is the value of 11−3m , when m = 2? (Please do it step by step because I dont know how to do this ;[ )

STatiana [176]

Substitute the variable for the value given.

11 - 3m becomes 11 - 3(2)

Now do the order of operations.

11 - 3(2) =
11 - 6 =
5

So, the answer is 5.
