Consider the attached ellipse. Let the sun be at the right focus. Then perihelion is at right vertex on the x-axis and aphelion is at the left vertex on the x-axis.
The distances:
- from perihelion to the sun in terms of ellipse is a-c;
- from aphelion to the sun in terms of ellipse is a+c.
Then

Add these two equations:
and subtract first equation from the second:
Note that
thus

The equation for the planet's orbit is

Answer:
./........
Step-by-step explanation:
5. 6√3
6. x = 10√3 y = 30
7. x = 34 y = 17√3
8. 30
9. SinA = 3/5 CosA = 4/5
10. Tan20 = 9/x
Multiply both sides by x to get it on the other side
x(tan20) = 9
Divide 9 by tan20 to get x.
x = 9/tan20
x = 24.7
Roberto overtakes Juanita at the rate of (7.7 mi)/(11 h) = 0.7 mi/h. This is the difference in their speeds. The sum of their speeds is (7.7 mi)/1 h) = 7.7 mi/h.
Roberto walks at the rate (7.7 + 0.7)/2 = 4.2 mi/h.
Juanita walks at the rate 4.2 - 0.7 = 3.5 mi/h.
_____
In a "sum and diference" problem, one solution is half the total of the sum and difference. If we let R and J be the respective speeds of Roberto and Juanita, we have
R + J = total speed
R - J = difference speed
Adding these two equations, we have
2R = (total speed + difference speed)
R = (total speed + difference speed)2 . . . . . as computed above
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
To make one hair ties is needed 3 3/8 inches of elastic
so
using proportion
Find out how many hair ties can you make with 9 feet of elastic
Remember that

Convert 9 ft to inches

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

using proportion
