Mary's house is approximately 49.73 miles from her grandmother's house.

The distances the three drove were;

Mary drove for 49.73 miles, Theo drove 50 miles and Nancy drove 53.299 miles.

Explanation:

  • The given triangle has a 13 mile long adjacent side, a 48 mile long opposite side and the distance of Mary's route is the hypotenuse. As we have two sides of the triangle, we can solve for the length of the other side by using Pythagoras' theorem.
  • Assume the hypotenuse of the triangle measures x miles. According to Pythagoras theorem, x = √(13² + 48²) , x = √169 + 2,304 x = √2,473 = 49.729. Rounding this off, we get Mary's route was 49.73 miles long.
  • Nancy drove √2,840 miles = 53.2916 miles.
  • So Mary drove the shortest distance of 49.73 miles, second shortest was Theo who drove for 50 miles and the longest was Nancy who drove for 53.299 miles.

Write an equation of the ellipse with foci at (0,+12) and vertices at (0,+13)
nekit [7.7K]
 To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
 1. You have that the ellipse given as a vertical major axis (a=13), therefore, taking the ellipse with its center at the origin, you have the following equation:
 (y^2/a^2)+(x^2/b^2)=1
 2. You have the distance from the center of the ellipse to the focus:
 c=12, therefore, you can calculate the value of b, the minor radius:
 c^2=a^2-b^2
 b=√(13^3-12^2)
 b=5
 3. Therefore, the equation is:
 a^2=169
 b^2=25
 (y^2/169)+(x^2/25)=1
 The answer is: (y^2/169)+(x^2/25)=1
