If a right circular cone is intersected by a plane that goes through both napped of the cone but not through the vertex, as in t

he picture below, what shape is produced?

Answer:

F. Hyperbola

Step-by-step explanation:

In each napped, you'll have a parabola, combined they form an hyperbola.

It's one of the various shapes that can be produced by a plane intercepting a right circular cone, as you can see in the attached picture.

Each plane intersection is different, based on the angle and the position it passes through.

I hope that helps.

The equation of the central street PQ is  -1.5x - 3.5y = -31.5 option (b) is correct.

<h3>What is a straight line?</h3>

A straight line is a combination of endless points joined on both sides of the point.

We have a straight line:

-7x+3y=-21.5  

Convert it to the general form given below:

\rm y=mx+c

\rm 3y=-21.5+7x\\\\ \rm y = \frac{-21.5}{3}+\frac{7}{3}x or

\rm y = \frac{7}{3}x-\frac{21.5}{3}

m = \frac{7}{3}   (Slope of AB line)

For the slope(m') of the PQ line:

\rm m'=-\frac{1}{m}    ( because AB and PQ are perpendicular to each other)

\rm m' = -\frac{3}{7}

We know the:

\rm (y-y')=m'(x-x')

Where (x', y') = (7, 6), we get:

\rm (y-6)=-\frac{3}{7} (x-7)

\rm 7(y-6)=-3 (x-7)\\\\\rm 7y-42= -3x+21\\\\\rm 7y= -3x+21+42\\\\\rm 3x+7y=63

\rm -1.5x-3.5y=-31.5   (multiply by -1/2 on both sides)

Thus, the equation of the central street PQ is  -1.5x - 3.5y = -31.5

7.5(2.2) and 3(2.2)

16.5 and 6.6

6) Multiply the coordinates by the scale factor as dilations work as (x, y) -> (kx, ky)

How is a 15% discount similar to a 15% decrease? Explain
VMariaS [17]
It's the same because you're trying to find net price (end price)

You're going to take in both scenarios 100%-15%= 85%

You're always going to be paying only 85% of the price.
