which of the following expresses the coordinates of the foci of the conic section shown below? (x-2)^2/4+(y+5)^2/9

elena55 [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{(x - 2) {}^{2} }{4} + \frac{(y + 5) {}^{2} }{9} = 1$

This is the equation of the ellipse. Since the denominator is greater for the y values, we have a vertical ellipse. Remember a>b, so a

The formula for the foci of the vertical ellipse is

(h,k+c) and (h,k-c).

where c is

Our center (h,k) is (2, -5)

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} - {b}^{2}$

Here a^2 is 9, b^2 is 4.

${c}^{2} = 9 - 4$

${c}^{2} = 5$

$c = \sqrt{5}$

So our foci is

$(2, - 5 + \sqrt{5} )$

and

$(2, - 5 - \sqrt{5} )$

Conner and Jana are multiplying (3⁵6⁸)(3⁹6¹⁰).

ad-work [718]

<h3>Conner work is correct. Jana work is wrong</h3>

Solution:

Given that,

Conner and Jana are multiplying:

$(3^56^8)(3^96^{10})$

Given Conner's work is:

$(3^56^8)(3^96^{10}) = 3^{5+9}6^{8+10} = 3^{14}6^{18}$

We have to check if this work is correct

Yes, Conner work is correct

From given,

$(3^56^8)(3^96^{10})\\\\3^5 \times 6^8 \times 3^9 \times 6^{10}$

Use the following law of exponent

$a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}$

Therefore,

$3^5 \times 6^8 \times 3^9 \times 6^{10} = 3^5 \times 3^9 \times 6^8 \times 6^{10} = 3^{5+9} \times 6^{8+10} = 3^{14} \times 6^{18}$

Given Jana's work is:

$(3^56^8)(3^96^{10}) = 3^{5.9}6^{8.10} = 3^{45}6^{80}$

This is incorrect

The powers of same base has to be added. But here, powers are multiplied which is wrong

On a map, 12 inch represents 45 mile.

lozanna [386]

Hello,

So 45 divided by 12 would get you 3.75. If I were to convert this in a mixed number, I would get me 2 1/2. So your answer is D

Hope this helps.
