The formula for the perimeter of an ellipse is given by:
P = 2π√((a² + b²)/2)

where a and b are the semi major and semi minor axes.
So, a = 7.5 and b = 3.75

Substituting the values:
P = 2π√((7.5² + 3.75²)/2)
P = 37.25 ft

The closest answer is 
C. 37.3 ft

When analyzing the speeds of stars far from the galactic center, the orbital speeds of stars ___________ as distance increases f
KiRa [710]

Answer: is constant

Explanation:

In order to analyze the velocity of the stars within a galaxy, the <u>galaxy rotation curves</u> (developed by the American astronomer Vera Rubin) are used. These graphs are elaborated as a scatter diagram in which the orbital velocity of the stars present in a galaxy is represented on the Y axis and the distance of these stars to the center of the galaxy on the X axis.

Thanks to this diagram, it has been possible to observe a characteristic behavior in the rotation speed of the stars (and gas) present in the galaxies, which differs from the rules of the orbital movement of the planetary systems postulated by Newton and Kepler.

This means that in these galaxy rotation curves it has been observed that the rotation speed of stars and gas is "constant", regardless of the distance to the center of the galaxy. This discrepancy and these results were then used to demonstrate the existence of dark matter in the universe.

Which of the following statements best describes how endemic diseases impact a nation’s population?
mr_godi [17]
Endemic diseases result in a decreasing population, so with that said you can rule out choices B and D. 

Among the two left, letter A is the most appropriate answer. Not all endemic diseases have an effect on the number of children a population will have. So if we are speaking about endemic diseases in general, the answer is:

A. Endemic diseases can result in decreasing population numbers: many people die form diseases, and others move away from or avoid moving to places where diseases are rampant.
