Liza bought 5/8 pound of trail mix. She gives 2/8 pound of trail mix to michael. How much trail mix does liza have left?

1 answer:

8 0

Liza has 3/8 pounds of trail mix left. I just subtracted 5/8-2/8 since they have common denominators you keep the denominator the same and just subtract the numerators, so 5/8-2/8= 3/8 pounds.

What is the length of the major axis of the conic section shown below?

sveticcg [70]

$\dfrac{(x-2)^2}{49}+\dfrac{(y+5)^2}{36}=1$

The equation of a elipse:

$\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1$

The length of the major axis is equal 2a if a > b or 2b if b > a.

We have

$a^2=49\to a=\sqrt{49}=7\\\\b^2=36\to b=\sqrt{36}=6\\\\a > b$

therefore the length of the major axis is equal 2 · 7 = 14.
