Find the coordinates of the x- and y-intercepts for an ellipse with the equation (x+1)^2/9 + (y-2)^2/8 = 1
1 answer:
Answer:
- x-intercepts: -1±√4.5
- y-intercepts: 2±8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-intercepts are where y = 0.
(x +1)^2/9 +(0 -2)^2/8 = 1
(x +1)^2/9 +1/2 = 1 . . . . . simplify a bit
(x +1)^2 = 9/2 . . . . . . . . .subtract 1/2, multiply by 9; next: square root, add -1
x = -1 ±√4.5 . . . . . x-intercepts
__
The y-intercepts are where x=0.
(0+1)^2/9 +(y-2)^2/8 = 1
1/9 + (y -2)^2/8 = 1 . . . . . simplify a bit
(y -2)^2 = 64/9 . . . . . . . . subtract 1/9, multiply by 8,
y = 2 ±8/3 . . . . . . take the square root, add 2 . . . . y-intercepts

A customer will pay $225.5 for one rug.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Purchase price of rug = $82.00
Mark up = 150%
Amount of mark up = 150% of purchase price
Amount of mark up =
Amount of mark up = 1.5*82 = $123
Price of rug after mark up = Purchase price + Mark up
Price of rug after mark up = 82+123 = $205
Sales tax = 10%
Amount of sales tax = 10% of price after markup
Amount of sales tax =
Selling price = Price after markup + Amount of sales tax
Selling price = 205+20.5 = $225.5
A customer will pay $225.5 for one rug.
