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

A certain radioactive isotope decays at a rate of 2% per 100 years. if t represents time in years and y represents the amount of
gregori [183]
We rewrite the equation:
 y = y0 * e ^ (- 0.0002 * t)
 In this equation:
 I = represents the initial amount of the isotope
 We have then:
 89% of the isotope left:
 0.89 * y0 = y0 * e ^ (- 0.0002 * t)
 We clear the time:
 e ^ (- 0.0002 * t) = 0.89
 Ln (e ^ (- 0.0002 * t)) = Ln (0.89)
 -0.0002 * t = Ln (0.89)
 t = Ln (0.89) / (- 0.0002)
 t = 582.6690813
 round to the nearest year:
 t = 583 years
 Answer:
 
There will be 89% of the isotope left in about:
 
t = 583 years

Gourmet Pretzels bakes soft pretzels on an assembly line. It currently bakes 800 pretzels each eight-hour shift. If the producti
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Change in productivity will be 50%

So option (b) will be correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that it takes 8 hour to bake 800 pretzels

And there is a shift of 8 hours

So hourly production = \frac{800}{8} =100

Now the production is increases to 1200

Now hourly production = \frac{1200}{8}=150

So change in productivity  = \frac{150-100}{100}=50 %

So option (b) will be correct answer

Can someone help it has to be a polynomial
Damm [24]

Answer: Width = 24 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let W represent the width of the rectangular sign.

The length of a rectangular sign is 6 inches more than half its width. It means that the length of the rectangular sign would be

W/2 + 6

The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length × width

The area of the sign is 432 square inches. Therefore, the equation for the area of this sign would be

W(W/2 + 6) = 432

W²/2 + 6W = 432

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 2, it becomes

W² + 12W = 864

W² + 12W - 864 = 0

W² + 36W - 24W - 864 = 0

W(W + 36) - 24(W + 36) = 0

W - 24 = 0 or W + 36 = 0

W = 24 or W = - 36

Since W cannot be negative, then

W = 24
