Answer:

x^2/100 + y^2/256 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an ellipse is (x-h)^2/a^2+(y-k)^2/b^2=1

a is the horizontal radius

b is the vertical radius

h is the shift to the right

k is the shift upward

h and k will be shifts left and downward respectively if they are negative.  Since the question doesn't mention any shifting we can just let them be 0 so everything is easier.  The problem states the  vertical axis is 16 and the horizontal axis is 10 so that means a = 10 and b = 16.  Now we just plug in.

(x-h)^2/a^2+(y-k)^2/b^2=1

a = 10

b = 16

h = 0

k = 0

x^2/10^2+y^2/16^2=1

x^2/100 + y^2/256 = 1

Assured normally costs £42 if you receive a 15% discount how much change will you get from £50
vesna_86 [32]
5% of £42 = £2.10
10% of £42 = £4.20
15% of £42 = £6.30

£42 - £6.30 = £35.70

£50 - £35.70 = £14.30

the answer is £14.30
