Answer:

<u>4 meters.</u> 

Step-by-step explanation:

Benjamin has walked two legs of a right triangle, so you can connect her two movements with a line if you were sketching the situation.. The displacement is the objects overall change in position in relation to its origin, so in your case, Benjamin's apartment. While the total distance adds up regardless of her position. 

So, the total distance Benjamin walked is 10m + 6m = 16m 

Her displacement can be found by your best friends, the Pythagorean Theorem: 10m ^2 + 6m ^2 = delta x^2 (or displacement squared).. giving you a displacement of 11.66, or 12 m.

The difference between the distance she walked and her displacement is 4 meters. 

I hope this helps. If you have any more questions, please feel free to post them and someone will be able to help you, whether it's myself or others. Please leave a like, rating, and if possible, Brainliest. Have a great day!

Identify the ellipses, represented by equations, whose eccentricities are less than 0.5
ozzi

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, we cannot see the ellipse equations.

The eccentric of an ellipse is given by:

e =  \frac{c}{a}

Assuming the equations are:

\frac{ {x}^{2} }{25}  +  \frac{ {y}^{2} }{16}  = 1

Then a²=25 and b²=16

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

{c}^{2}  = 25 - 16

{c}^{2}  =  {3}^{2}

c = 3

The eccentricity is:

e =  \frac{3}{5}  = 0.6

If the ellipse has equation,

\frac{ {x}^{2} }{ {5}^{2} }  +  \frac{ {y}^{2} }{ {3}^{2} }  = 1

then the this time, we have a=5 and b=3.

This means that:

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

{c}^{2}  =  {5}^{2}  -  {3}^{2}

{c}^{2}  =  {4}^{2}

c = 4

c =  \frac{4}{5}  = 0.8

What is the measure of angle A please HELP I’ll give you BRAINLIEST
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Option (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying cosine rule in the triangle ABC,

BC² = AC² + AB² - 2(AC)(AB)cosA

5² = 3² + 7²- 2(3)(7)cosA

25 = 9 + 49 - 42cos(A)

25 = 58 - 42cos(A)

cos(A) = \frac{33}{42}

A = \text{cos}^{-1}\frac{11}{14}

A = 38.21°

A ≈ 38°

Option (3) will be the correct option.

Express in the form n:1 give n as a decimal 21:12
Makovka662 [10]

1.75:1 which is similar to n:1 where n=1.75

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have to Express in the form n:1 give n as a decimal 21:12 . Let's find out:

Given ratio as 21:12 . Let's convert it into n:1 , where n is decimal

⇒ 21:12

⇒ \frac{21}{12}

⇒ \frac{3(7)}{3(4)}

⇒ \frac{7}{4}

⇒ \frac{\frac{7}{4}}{\frac{4}{4}}                      { dividing denominator & numerator by 4 }

⇒ \frac{\frac{7}{4}}{1}

⇒ \frac{1.75}{1}

⇒ 1.75:1 which is similar to n:1 where n=1.75
