Answer option A

From the given graph is a Vertical ellipse

Center of ellipse = (-2,-3)

Vertices are (-2,3)  and (-2,-9)

Co vertices are (-6,-3) and (2,-3)

The distance between center and vertices = 6, so a= 6

The distance between center and covertices = 4 , so b= 4

The general equation of vertical ellipse is

\frac{(x-h)^2}{b^2} + \frac{(y-k)^2}{a^2}=1

(h,k) is the center

we know center is (-2,-3)

h= -2, k = -3 , a= 6  and b = 4

The standard equation  becomes

\frac{(x+2)^2}{4^2} + \frac{(y+3)^2}{6^2}=1

\frac{(x+2)^2}{16} + \frac{(y+3)^2}{36}=1

Foci  are (h,k+c)  and (h,k-c)

c=\sqrt{a^2-b^2}

Plug in the a=6  and b=4

c=\sqrt{6^2-4^2}

 c=\sqrt{20}

  c=2\sqrt{5}, we know h=-2  and k=-3

Foci  are   (-2,-3+2\sqrt{5})  and  (-2,-3-2\sqrt{5})

Option A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of candies with Forest = 12

Candies containing coconut and chocolate both = Number common in coconut and the chocolate = 3

Candies which do not contain coconut but contain the chocolate = 6

Candies which contain the coconut but do not contain the chocolate = 1

Candies which neither contain the chocolate nor coconut = 2

From the given Venn diagram,

                                                Contain coconut         Do not contain coconut

Contain chocolate                              3                                       6

Do not contain chocolate                 1                                        2

LaShaundra is buying fence for two triangular sections of her garden.
mixas84 [53]

Answer: 80 feet.


Step-by-step explanation:

1. As you can see in the figure, triangle ABC and the triangle DFG are similar.

2. The scale of factor of triangle ABC to triangle DFG is the following:

sf=\frac{20ft}{4ft}\\sf=5ft

3. Therefore, the lenght of the side DG of the trinagle DFG is:

DG=5*AC\\DG=5*7ft\\DG=35ft

4. The perimeter of the triangle DFG is:

P_{DFG}=20ft+25ft+35ft=80ft

5. Therefore, she would need 80 feet of fence.
