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.

MrRissso [65]
Given that we assume that all the bases of the triangles are parallel.

We can use AAA or Angle-Angle-Angle to prove that these triangles are similar.

Each parallel line creates the same angle when intersecting with the same side.
For example:
The bases of each triangle cross the left side of all the triangle.
Each angle made by the intersecting of the the parallel base and the side are the same.
Thus, each corresponding angle of all the triangles are congruent.
If these angles are congruent, then we have similar triangles.

A grocer has two kinds of tea: one selling for 80 cents a pound and the other selling for 60 cents a pound. How many pounds of e
goblinko [34]

Answer:

35 pounds of tea for 80 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation::

value + value = value

80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50  

80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50  

20x = 14*50

x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)

50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)

Age If you add Natalie's age and Fred's age, the result is 40. If you add Fred's age to 4 times
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Fred is 28 yrs old. Nathalie is 12yrs old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Nathalie's age be x

Let Fred's age be a

x+a=40 yrs•••••1

4x+a=76yrs•••••2

a=40-x

Substitute a for 40-x in equation (2)

4x+40-x=76

3x=76-40

3x=36

x=12

a=40-12

a=28

A video game store allows customers to rent games for 4.75 each. Customers can also buy a membership for $54 annually, and video
ankoles [38]
Answer:

24 video games

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of video games.
We have been given that a video game store allows customers to rent games for $4.75 each. So the cost of renting x video games would be 4.75x.

We are also told that customers can also buys a membership for $54 annually, and video games would only cost $2.50 each. The cost of renting x video games after membership would be 2.50x + 54

To find the number of video-games that will cost same for both options, we will equate both expressions as:

4.75x = 2.50x + 54
4.75x - 2.50x = 2.50x - 2.50x + 54


Therefore, a customer would have rent 24 video games in a year in order for the two options to be equal.
