Answer:
G - number of arrangements
F. the amount of her allowance
B. y = x
H. the number of hours
<span>Faster maid DATA:
time = x hr/job ; rate = 1/x job/jhr
Slower maid DATA:
time = 3x hr/job ; rate = 1/3x job/hr
Together DATA:
time = 3 hr/job ; rate = 1/3 job/hr
Equation:
rate + rate = together rate
1/x + 1/3x = 1/3
Multiply thru by 3x to get:
3 + 1 = x
x = 4 hrs (time for the faster maid to do the job)</span>
<span>Let the major axis = 2a , and the minor axis = 2b
∴ a = 26/2 = 13 and b = 24/2 = 12
and the equation of foci:
c² = a² - b²
= 13² - 12² = 169 - 144 = 25
∴ c = √25 = 5
∴ The distance between the foci = 2 * 5 = 10
