<u>Answer:</u>

2\frac{1}{3} minutes

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We know that in 2003, a total eclipse lasted for 2\frac{17}{24} minutes and in 2005, it lasted for \frac{3}{8} minutes.

To find out how much longer did the total eclipse last in 2003, we simply need to find the difference between the duration of two eclipses.

= 2\frac{17}{24} - \frac{3}{8}

= \frac{65}{24} - \frac{3}{8}

= \frac{65-9}{24}

= 2\frac{1}{3}

So it lasted 2\frac{1}{3} minutes longer in 2003.

Answer:

Total eclipse was 2\frac{1}{3} minutes longer than in 2005.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given in the question that total eclipse in 2003 lasted 2\frac{17}{24} minutes and in 2005 it lasted 3/8 of a minute.

We have to calculate how much longer did it last in 2003.

So we have to subtract the duration in 2003 by duration in 2005

Total time taken in 2003- total time taken in 2005

=2\frac{17}{24}-\frac{3}{8}

\frac{48+17}{24}-\frac{3}{8}

=\frac{65}{24}-\frac{3}{8}

=\frac{65-9}{24}

=\frac{56}{24}

\frac{7}{3}

=2\frac{1}{3} minutes

Okay, so the first thing we have to do is take 6ft and convert it into inches so we get the equation (6x12)+6 6 times 12 is 72 so that gives us 72in plus 6 which is 78 and with that answer we take 78in and divide it by 6.17 which is 12.18. She has a long arm measuring i while feet and 18 inches lol

The slope of the function is $400.

<h3 /><h3>Definition of slope of a function</h3>

The slope of a function is the rate of change of the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable. The equation that represents a function is: y = mx + b

Where:

  • y = dependent variable
  • m = independent variable
  • x = slope
  • b = constant

Looking at the total money raised, the amount of money increases by 400. This is the slope.

4. Find the standard from of the equation of a hyperbola whose foci are (-1,2), (5,2) and its vertices are end points of the dia
Ad libitum [116K]

The <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the hyperbola that satisfies all conditions is (x - 2)²/4 - (y - 2)²/5 = 1 .

<h3>How to find the standard equation of a hyperbola</h3>

In this problem we must determine the equation of the hyperbola in its <em>standard</em> form from the coordinates of the foci and a <em>general</em> equation of a circle. Based on the location of the foci, we see that the axis of symmetry of the hyperbola is parallel to the x-axis. Besides, the center of the hyperbola is the midpoint of the line segment with the foci as endpoints:

(h, k) = 0.5 · (- 1, 2) + 0.5 · (5, 2)

(h, k) = (2, 2)

To determine whether it is possible that the vertices are endpoints of the diameter of the circle, we proceed to modify the <em>general</em> equation of the circle into its <em>standard</em> form.

If the vertices of the hyperbola are endpoints of the diameter of the circle, then the center of the circle must be the midpoint of the line segment. By algebra we find that:

x² + y² - 4 · x - 4 · y + 4= 0​

(x² - 4 · x + 4) + (y² - 4 · y + 4) = 4

(x - 2)² + (y - 2)² = 2²

The center of the circle is the midpoint of the line segment. Now we proceed to determine the vertices of the hyperbola:

V₁(x, y) = (0, 2), V₂(x, y) = (4, 2)

And the distance from the center to any of the vertices is 2 (<em>semi-major</em> distance, a) and the semi-minor distance is:

b = √(c² - a²)

b = √(3² - 2²)

b = √5

Therefore, the <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the hyperbola that satisfies all conditions is (x - 2)²/4 - (y - 2)²/5 = 1 .

Answer:   - (2 + 3) = -5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

When combining numbers that have the same sign, you add them and then include the sign.

For example:

-2 - 3 = -(2 + 3) = -5

-6 - 5 = -(6 + 5) = -11

-7 - 8 = -(7 + 8) = -15

A recent survey found that 65% of high school students were currently enrolled in a math class, 43% were currently enrolled in a
Bas_tet [7]
<h3>Answer: Choice A)  0.20</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

Let's say there are 1000 students. The students must take math, science or they can take both simultaneously.

  • 65% of them are in math. So there are 0.65*1000 = 650 math students.
  • 43% are in science, leading to 0.43*1000 = 430 science students.
  • 13% are in both so we have 0.13*1000 = 130 students who are in both.

Now onto the sentence that says "Suppose a high school student who is enrolled in a math class is selected at random"

This means we only focus on the 650 math students and ignore the 1000-650 = 350 students who aren't in math.

Of those 650 math students, 130 are also in science (since 130 are in both classes).

The probability we're after is therefore 130/650 = 0.20
