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.

Three consecutive even numbers have a sum between 84 and 96.
ELEN [110]

Answer:

a. 84 < n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) < 96

b. 26 < n < 30


Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = 1st number

n+2   2nd  even number

n+4 = 3rd even number

The sum of these 3 numbers is

n+n+2+n+4

It must be between 84 and 96  (it does not include this 84 and 96)

84< n+n+2+n+4 < 96


Now we need to solve this

Combine like terms

84 < 3n +6< 96

Subtract 6 from all sides

84 -6 < 3n+6-6 < 96 -6

78 < 3n < 90

Divide all sides by 3

78/3 < 3n/3 < 90/3

26 < n< 30

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P_1=Probability of clearing exam in 1 st attempt=0.5

P_2=Probability of clearing exam in 2 nd attempt=0.7

P_3=Probability of clearing exam in 3 rd attempt=0.8

Probability that she passes the exam=P(1 st\ attempt)+P(1\ fail)\cdot P(2\ pass)+P(1\ fail)\cdot P(2\ fail)\cdot P(3 rd pass)

P=0.5+0.5\times 0.7+0.5\times 0.3\times 0.8=0.97

(b)P(Pass qualification on 2nd try|passes qualification)

P(Pass qualification on 2nd try|passes qualification)=\frac{P(fail\ on\ 1 )\cdot P(pass\ in\ 2nd)}{P(passes)}

P(Pass qualification on 2nd try|passes qualification)=\frac{0.5\times 0.7}{0.97}=0.3608

Answer question one and show work.
likoan [24]

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

angle 1 and angle 2 are complementary (their sum is 90°)

x + 5 + 2x + 1 = 90 add like terms

3x + 6 = 90 subtract 6 from both sides

3x = 84 divide both sides by 3

x = 28

How many feet is in 215 yards
Lilit [14]
645 feet.

Explanation:
We know that are 3 feet in a yard, so let's set up a proportion to solve this

x215
3 feet n
-------- = -----------
1 yard 215 yards
x 215

We are solving for n. To get from 1 to 215, we multiply by 215. So to get from 3 to the answer, we must multiply by 215 as well. 3 x 215 = 645, therefore that is the answer.
