This question is pretty much asking: Write a story that can be represented by the equation y=1.25x.

So, how about this one: Lily's mom tells Lily to clean up her toys. Lily puts toys away at a rate of one toy per every 1.25 seconds.

That's it, simple as that :P

(Sorry if it wasn't too helpful.)

Which lines are the directrices of the ellipse?

algol [13]

The lines that are the directrices of the ellipse is B. x = −3.25 and x = 9.25.

<h3>How to calculate the ellipse? </h3>

From the information given, the equation of parabola will be:

= (x - 3)²/5² + (y - 2)²/3² = 1

Hence, h = 3, k = 2, a = 5, b = 3

e = ✓1 - ✓3²/5²

E = 4/5 = 0.8

The directix will be:

x = 3 + 5/0.8

x = 9.25

x = 3 - 5/0.8

x = -3.25

Therefore, lines that are the directrices of the ellipse is x = −3.25 and x = 9.25.

Need help asapppp!!! plz i will give brainliest to the person with the correct answer

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Multiply x by 4 and make x negative if it's positive or make x positive if it's negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying x by a number greater than 1 will stretch the parabola.

Changing x from positive to negative and vice versa reflects the parabola over the x-axis.

15 POINTS!!!!!!! What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form? Line on a coordinate plane. Line runs through points

suter [353]

Answer:

$y=\frac{4}{3}x+4$ is the equation of line in slope intercept form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line runs through points begin ordered pair negative 3 comma 0 end ordered pair and begin ordered pair 0 comma 4.

First ordered pair: (-3,0)

Second ordered pair: (0,4)

We have two points and need to find equation of line in slope intercept form

$\text{Slope (m)}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\text{Slope (m)}=\dfrac{4-0}{0-(-3)}=\dfrac{4}{3}$

y-intercept, when x=0 , (0,4)

Equation of line in slope intercept form:

y=mx+b

where, $m=\frac{4}{3}$ and b=4

Required equation:

$y=\frac{4}{3}x+4$

Thus, $y=\frac{4}{3}x+4$ is the equation of line in slope intercept form.

At a race track you have the opportunity to buy a ticket that requires you to pick the first and second place horses in the firs

rewona [7]

Answer:

4032 different tickets are possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : At a race track you have the opportunity to buy a ticket that requires you to pick the first and second place horses in the first two races. If the first race runs 9 horses and the second runs 8.

To find : How many different tickets are possible ?

Solution :

In the first race there are 9 ways to pick the winner for first and second place.

Number of ways for first place - $^9C_1=9$

Number of ways for second place - $^8C_1=8$

In the second race there are 8 ways to pick the winner for first and second place.

Number of ways for first place - $^8C_1=8$

Number of ways for second place - $^7C_1=7$

Total number of different tickets are possible is

$n=9\times 8\times 8\times 7$

$n=4032$

Therefore, 4032 different tickets are possible.
