Answer:

<u>Option B. 11</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure

As the figure about an ellipse

So, The sum of distance between A and the foci will be equal the major axis

AB = 6 and the major axis = 17

∴ AB + AC = major axis

∴ 6 + AC = 17

∴ AC = 17 - 6 = 11

<u>So, the length of the blue line segment = 11</u>

The circle below is centered at the point (4,1) and has a radius of length 2. What is it’s equation?
vekshin1

Answer:

Option B:

(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Centre = (h,k) = (4,1)

Radius = r = 2

The standard equation of circle is:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Putting the values of h,k and r

(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 = (2)^2\\(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 = 4

Hence, the correct option is option B

(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 = 4

____________________________________

\large \tt Solution  \: :

Let the angle of elevation be " x "

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  \cos(x)  =  \dfrac{9 \sqrt{3} }{18}

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:  \cos(x)  =  \dfrac{ \sqrt{3} }{2}

\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: x =  \cos {}^{ - 1}  \bigg( \cfrac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} \bigg )

A cafeteria can feed 1/8 of the school in 3 1/2 minutes. How long does it take to feed the school?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

28 minutes

3.5 x 8 = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Feeding the whole school (8/8) would take 8 times as long as feeding 1/8 of the school.

3 1/2 can become 3.5 if that's easier for you to work with.

Feeding 1/8 of the school is 3.5 x 1 = 3.5

Feeding 2/8 of the school is 3.5 x 2 = 7

Feeding 8/8 of the school is 3.5 x 8 = 28

It takes 28 minutes to feed the whole school (8/8)
