So,

All we have to do is multiply the amount of water Andy carried by the fractional amount he drank.

1/2 * 2/3

This is pretty simple.  To halve TWO-thirds, just halve the numerator, since it's such a nice number.

Presto.  Half of two is one.

Therefore, 
1/2 * 2/3 = 1/3

Andy drank 1/3 gallons of water on his hike.  That's 5 1/3 cups of water.  I would estimate his hike to be about 3 miles.  Easy peasy.

Which lines are the directrices of the ellipse?
algol [13]

The lines that are the directrices of the ellipse is B. x = −3.25 and x = 9.25.

<h3>How to calculate the ellipse? </h3>

From the information given, the equation of parabola will be:

= (x - 3)²/5² + (y - 2)²/3² = 1

Hence, h = 3, k = 2, a = 5, b = 3

e = ✓1 - ✓3²/5²

E = 4/5 = 0.8

The directix will be:

x = 3 + 5/0.8

x = 9.25

x = 3 - 5/0.8

x = -3.25

Therefore, lines that are the directrices of the ellipse is x = −3.25 and x = 9.25.

Find the measure of angle X.<br><br><br>11°<br><br>12°<br><br>17°<br><br>61°
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

option B : 12 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle = 180 degree

Small box represents 90 degree

From the inner triangle

90 + angle y + 29 = 180 degree

90 + y + 29 = 180

119 + y = 180 (subtract 119 on both sides)

y= 61 degree

 (y+x) is the top angle for bigger triangle

From the outer triangle , 90 + (y+x) + 17 = 180

We know y = 61

90 + (61+x) + 17 = 180

90 + 61 + x 17 = 180

168 +x = 180(subtract 168 on both sides)

x= 12 degrees
