Write an equation of the ellipse centered at the origin given its vertex and co vertex

Mathematics
1 answer:
jolli1 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

\dfrac{x^2}{49}+\dfrac{y^2}{25}=1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the ellipse is

\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1.

If the vertex of the ellipse is at point (-7,0), then a=7.

If the co-vertex of the elllipse is at point (0,-5), then b=5.

The equation of the ellipse is

\dfrac{x^2}{7^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{5^2}=1,

\dfrac{x^2}{49}+\dfrac{y^2}{25}=1.

In a class, every student knows French or German (or both). 15 students know French, and 17 students know German.
leva [86]
Answer:
32 students

Explanation:
We are given that:
Students in the class can either speak French, German or both
15 students know French
17 students know German

Now, the maximum number in the class can be calculated by assuming that no student can speak both languages.
This means that the number of students will be the summation of those who know French only (15) and those who know German only (17)

In this case:
the maximum number of students = 15 + 17 = 32 students 

Hope this helps :)

Some friends of yours collected books for a book drive. They collected 64 Fiction, and 48 Non-Fiction books. They asked you to m
Cloud [144]

As all of the bundles have the same content inside, so assuming that there is x number of Fiction books and y number of Non-fiction books in each bundle.

Let n be the total number of bundles that my team can send.

There are 64 Fiction books, so

nx=64 ...(i)

Or x=64/n ...(ii)

also, there are 48 Non-Fiction books, so

ny=48 ...(iii)

Or y=48/n ...(iv)

Observing that the numbers x, y, and n are counting numbers and from equations (i) and (iii), n is the common factor of 64 and 48.

The possible common factors of 64 and 48 are,

n=1,2,4,8, and 16.

So, my team can send 1,2,3,4,8 or 16 bundles of books.

Now, from equations (ii) and (iv),

For n=1:

x=64/1=64

y=48/1=48

So, for 1 bundle the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 64 and 48 respectively.

For n=2:

x=64/2=32

y=48/2=48

So, for 2 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 32 and 24 respectively.

For n=4:

x=64/4=16

y=48/4=12

So, for 4 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 16 and 12 respectively.

For n=8:

x=64/8=8

y=48/8=6

So, for 8 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 8 and 6 respectively.

For n=16:

x=64/16=4

y=48/16=3

So, for 16 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 4 and 3 respectively.
