Let's go though the choices.
Major axis will get shorter. TRUE, CHECK ME
As the plane moves closer to the vertex the ellipse stays the same shape but shrinks.
Ellipse will become a circle. FALSE
As long as the plane is tilted, the ellipse can't be a circle.
Ellipse will degenerate to a point. TRUE, CHECK ME
Eventually the plane gets to the vertex, at which point (ha!) we have a single point.
Nappes? Is that a word? FALSE
The plane needs a steeper angle, steeper than the generators, before it can pass through both halves.
The generators are the lines through the vertex that form the cone. The plane isn't steep enough to hold any of them. FALSE
The perimeter is the sum of side lengths. Opposite sides of a rectangle are the same length, so the perimeter is
P = 11 +43 5/12 +11 +43 5/12
= 2(11 +43 5/12)
= 2(54 5/12)
P = 108 5/6 . . . . feet
The area is the product of length and width. It doesn't matter which of the given dimensions you consider length or width, since you multiply them either way.
A = 11 * 43 5/12
= 473 +55/12
A = 477 7/12 . . . . square feet
Answer:
2.10 s, 10.40 s.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the height of the rocket is given by the function:
We are asked to find the time for which the height of the rocket will be 350 ft. So, for that moment, we know the height but we don't know the time; however, we know that the equation can help us to find the time, doing h=350:
The last is a quadratic equation, which can be put in the form 
and solved applying the formula:
So, let's put the equation on the form adding 
and subtracting 
to each side of the equation; the result is:
So, we note that a=16, b=-200, and c=350.
Then,
According to the equation, that are the times for which the height will be 350 ft; that is because the rocket is going to ascend and then to fail again to the ground.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
For example, subtract 56 by 47, you get 9. Each term is 9 more than the previous term.
