To get an equivalent fraction, multiply the fraction by a whole number. For example, you can do 2/3 times 2 to both sides which is 4/6.
Steps:
A=bh/2
A= (18ft)(6ft)
_______
2
A = 108
____
2
A= 54ft^2
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.<span><span><span><span>6n</span>+n</span>+14</span>=0</span>
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.<span><span><span><span>6n</span>+n</span>+14</span>=0</span><span>Simplify: (Show steps)</span><span><span><span>7n</span>+14</span>=0</span>
Step 2: Subtract 14 from both sides.<span><span><span><span>7n</span>+14</span>−14</span>=<span>0−14</span></span><span><span>7n</span>=<span>−14</span></span>
Step 3: Divide both sides by 7.<span><span><span>7n</span>7</span>=<span><span>−14</span>7</span></span><span>n=<span>−2</span></span>
Answer:<span>n=<span>−<span>2</span></span></span>
<h3>
Answer: B) hyperbola</h3>
If the cutting plane was parallel to the circular base of the cones, then we would have a circular cross section (assuming the plane doesnt cut through the vertex). However, we're told than the plane intersects both nappes, or cones, so it's not possible for the plane to be parallel to the base faces. We can rule out choice A.
We can rule out choice C and choice D for similar reasons. An ellipse only forms if the plane only cuts through one cone only, which is the same story for a parabola as well.
