What conic section degenerates into a line?

Mathematics
1 answer:
andrew11 [14]3 years ago
5 0
<h3>Answer: A) parabola</h3>

Some degenerate parabola cases form a single straight line, while other cases form one pair of parallel lines.

A degenerate hyperbola forms two lines that intersect at the vertex of the cone. We can rule out choice B.

A degenerate circle is a single point, so we can rule out choice C.

A degenerate ellipse is also a single point. Any circle is an ellipse (but not the other way around). We can rule out choice D.

How to solve -13=5(1 4m)-2m?
Paladinen [302]
First, you would multiply: -13 = 70m - 2m. Then, you subtract the like terms, which would be 70m - 2m: -13 = 68m. You are looking for what m is, so you would divide 68 on both sides: m = - 13 / 68. In math, people would usually like fractions more than decimals, but if you are looking for the decimal number, it would be m ≈ - 0.19.
