prob( it lands on open end) = 8/20 = 2/5
prob ( lands on closed end) = 4/20 = 1/5
The second choice is correct.
Yes she is correct..
the reason why is because if she gives her horse 2 apples a day for 10 days, she will have spent 20 apples.
and so to get the number of apples she has remaining after 10 days, just subtract 20 from 24:
24-20 = 4
and you get four. That means that after 10 days she will indeed have 4 apples left
Answer:
49
Step-by-step explanation:
-3√(t) = -21
√(t) = 7
t = 49
Answer: The equation of an ellipse:

;
a

)
Has foci at
(
h

√
a
2
−
b

Use the vertices to write 3 equations:
k
=

[1]
h
−
a
=

[2]
h
+
a
=
10
[3]
Use equations [2] and [3] to solve for h and a:

h
=

a
=
8
Use the focus to write another equation:
8
=
h
+
√
a
