Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.
The general equation of a horizontal ellipse is
(x-h)2/a2 + (y-k)2/b2 = 1, at center (h,k) while a = semi-major axis, b = semi-minor axis. These are related through the distance of the focus from the center,c. a2 = b2 + c2.
If you draw the points on a coordinate plane, the center of the ellipse is at (0,0), so h and k equals 0. Then, the minor axis (2b) spans from 8 to -8 of the y-axis. This is equal to 16 units. Hence,
2b = 16
b = 8
b^2 = 64
The distance between the two foci is 2c. Thus,
2c = 12
c = 6
c^2 = 36
Then, a2 = 64 + 36 = 100. Substituting to the general equation:
x^2/100 + y^2/64 = 1
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The great enclosure was built to have a surplus population and its religious and administrative activities. There fore the answer would be B since they are trying to protect the population and there religion
1/3= 0.33333 if u want it as a decimal :)
4y + 228 = 352
4y = 352 - 228
4y = 124
