Answer:

Option B). 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between center and the focus of an ellipse is given by the formula,

c² = a² - b²

where, a = length of the major axis

b = length of the minor axis

and c = distance between focus and center

If c = 6 cm, b = 8 cm,

6² = a² - 8²

a² = 6² + 8²

a² = 36 + 64

a² = 100

a = 10 cm

Therefore, length of the major axis is 10 cm.

Option (B) is the answer.

Which graph represents the function f(x) = |x + 3|?
Sophie [7]
Answer: (B)
Explanation: If you are unsure about where to start, you could always plot some numbers down until you see a general pattern.

But a more intuitive way is to determine what happens during each transformation.
A regular y = |x| will have its vertex at the origin, because nothing is changed for a y = |x| graph. We have a ray that is reflected at the origin about the y-axis.

Now, let's explore the different transformations for an absolute value graph by taking a y = |x + h| graph.
What happens to the graph?
Well, we have shifted the graph -h units, just like a normal trigonometric, linear, or even parabolic graph. That is, we have shifted the graph h units to its negative side (to the left).

What about the y = |x| + h graph?
Well, like a parabola, we shift it h units upwards, and if h is negative, we shift it h units downwards.

So, if you understand what each transformation does, then you would be able to identify the changes in the shape's location.

What is a reflexive angle?
zalisa [80]
Is the larger angle. It is more than 180° but less than 360° If you choose the smaller angle you might have an Acute Angle, or an Obtuse Angle instead: The larger angle is a Reflex Angle, but the smaller angle is an Acute Angle.
