Answer:

The correct answer is first option 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of a circle is inscribed in an equilateral triangle with side a = a/2√3

<u>To find the area of equilateral triangle</u>

Here side be 'a'

Area of equilateral = √3a²/4

<u>To find the area of circle</u>

Here radius = a/2√3

Area = πr²

 = π(a/2√3)

 = 3.14a²/12

<u>To find the probability</u>

probability = area of circle/area of triangle

   = 3.14a²/12/ √3a²/4

   = 3.14/3√3

   = 0.6043 ≈ 60.43 %  60 %

The correct answer is first option 60%

The equation of the ellipse in <em>standard</em> form is (x + 3)² / 100 + (y - 2)² / 64 = 1. (Correct choice: B)

<h3>What is the equation of the ellipse associated with the coordinates of the foci?</h3>

By <em>analytical</em> geometry we know that foci are along the <em>major</em> axis of ellipses and beside the statement we find that such axis is parallel to the x-axis of Cartesian plane. Then, the <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the ellipse is of the following form:

(x - h)² / a² + (y - k)² / b² = 1, where a > b     (1)

Where:

  • a - Length of the major semiaxis.
  • b - Length of the minor semiaxis.

Now, we proceed to find the vertex and the lengths of the semiaxes:

a = 10 units.

b = 8 units.

Vertex

V(x, y) = 0.5 · F₁(x, y) + 0.5 · F₂(x, y)

V(x, y) = 0.5 · (3, 2) + 0.5 · (- 9, 2)

V(x, y) = (1.5, 1) + (- 4.5, 1)

V(x, y) = (- 3, 2)

The equation of the ellipse in <em>standard</em> form is (x + 3)² / 100 + (y - 2)² / 64 = 1. (Correct choice: B)

2 divided by 1 and 6/7
ale4655 [162]

This problem, as written, requires a bit of guessing regarding your intentions.  My interpretation is that you want to do this division:


    2

----------

 1  6/7

If that's correct, here's what to do:  rewrite 1  6/7 as 13/7 (an improper fraction).

Then divide:

   2

--------      This is equivalent to the multiplication (2/1)(7/13) = 14/13 (answer)

 13/7
