The complete question: <span>Megan bikes 6 miles west to get from her apartment to school. After school, she bikes 8 miles north to her friend's house. How far is Megan's apartment from her friend's house, measured in a straight line?

So,Megan's apartment, the school, and Megan's friend's house form a right triangle with legs 6 miles and 8 miles as you can see in the attached picture; the hypotenuse of the right triangle is the straight distance is from Megan's apartment to her friend's house. To find that distance we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem:
</span>h= \sqrt{(6mi)^2+(8mi)^2}
h= \sqrt{36mi^2+64mi^2}
h= \sqrt{100mi^2}
h=10mi
<span>
We can conclude that distance between Megan's apartment and her friend's house is 10 miles.</span>

The length of the red line segment is 6, and the length of the blue line segment is 4. how long is the major axis of the ellipse
juin [17]

An ellipse is divided into two axes, the longer axis is the major axis and the shorter axis is the minor axis. The length of the major axis of an ellipse is equal to the sum of two distance: the distance between any point on the ellipse and one on focus and the distance between the same point and the other focus. The focus is the point that helps define an ellipse and every ellipse has two foci. These two distance are also called the red line segment and blue line segment. Given 6 for red line segment and 4 for blue line segment therefore, the length of the major axis of the ellipse is 10.

Please help me with this question.​
Stels [109]

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of the origibal set = 20

No. of terms = 10

Sum = Mean x No. of terms

= 20 x 10 = 200

The sum of additional numbers to make the new set of observstion is 4 + 8 + 12...... + 40 = 220

New Sum = 200 + 220 = 420

The no of terms stay the same

New Mean = New Sum/ N

= 420/10

= 42

julsineya [31]

Answer:

(C)81

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of Students =300

Percentage who had cats, n(C) = 40%

Percentage who had both cats and dogs , n(C \cap D) = 12%

Percentage who had neither cats nor dogs, n(C \cup D)' =45%

Now:

Universal Set, U = n(C)+n(D)-n(C \cap D)+n(C \cup D)'

100 = 40 + n(D)-12+45\\n(D)=100-73\\$Percentage of those who own dogs =27\%

Therefore:

Number of Students who had dogs

=27% of 300

=81
