Answer:
This question is solved in detail below. Please refer to the attachment for better understanding of an Ellipse.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, there is a spelling mistake. This is vertices not verticles.
So, I have attached a diagram of an ellipse in which it is clearly mentioned where are the vertices of an ellipse.
Vertices of an Ellipse: There are two axes in any ellipse, one is called major axis and other is called minor axis. Where, minor is the shorter axis and major axis is the longer one. The places or points where major axis and minor axis ends are called the vertices of an ellipse. Please refer to the attachment for further clarification.
Equations of an ellipse in its standard form:
This is the case when major axis the longer one is on the x-axis centered at an origin.

This is the case when major axis the longer one is on the y-axis centered at an origin.
where major axis length = 2a
and minor axis length = 2b
Hi Eli!
--------------------------------------
We Know:
1 1/2 cups of flour.
3/4 cup of white sugar.
1/8 cup of brown sugar.
--------------------------------------
Part A:
I can't use a number line answering this question but you can create one with the steps I tell you.
First find common denominators:
1 1/2 = 3/2 = 12/8
3/4 = 6/8
1/8
Create a number that goes from 0/8 to 12/8, which means put a number with 12, 1/8 plots on it. Then plot 12/8, 6/8, and 1/8 in order in the number line.
Find out the total number of cups used:
12/8 + 6/8 + 1/8 = 19/8
Simplify:
19/8 = 2 3/84
Part A Answer: There are <u>2 3/8 cups</u> used all together.
--------------------------------------
Part B:
Part B Answer: The <u>3 cup bowl</u> would work perfectly.
Why: The reason you would want to choose the 3 cup bowl is because it fits all the ingredients perfectly, the 3 cup bowl is greater than the 2 3/8 cups they used. You can't use 2 cups because it is less than the total cups of ingredients. The 4 bowl you could use but it is too big.
