A fireplace arch is to be constructed in the form of a semiellipse. The opening is to have a height of 3 feet at the center and
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Fireplace is in the form of semi-ellipse with height of 3 ft from center
Length of base=8 ft
if the arch is in the form of ellipse then it can be considered as horizontal ellipse with 2 a and 2 b be length of major and minor axis
2 a =8
a=4 ft
If contractor cover the whole base
then total length of string=2a =8 ft
(b)String should be nailed at focus
focus of ellipse is a e
where e=eccentricity
Focus
Thus string should be nailed at 2.64 m from center

24) All percents are numbers with the decimal moved 2 to the right. So if you have 275%, move the decimal to the left twice to get a factor of 2.75. that means that the puppy is 2.75 times heavier at 4 months than it was at 2 months. Since you need the answer as a mixed fraction, your answer is;
28) If 6 of 75 trees are 30+ feet tall and you need to know how many are under, subtract 6 from 75 to get (75 - 6) = 69 trees under 30ft tall.
You're looking for the percent of trees under 30ft tall, so divide the number of trees <30ft by the total number of trees to get;
Move the decimal 2 to the right to get 92%.
Your answer is that 92% of trees is under 30ft.
