Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

General Remark

Let's start with the long way.

Each day 1 traditional candle (shamash) is lit along with a number of candles representing that day of Chanukah. I'm taking it that a new Shamash candle must be used each day.

Total Candles = 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 = 44

Givens

  • a = 2
  • L = 9
  • n = 8

Formula

Sum = (a + L)*n/2

Solution

  • Sum = (2 + 9)*8/2
  • Sum = (11)*4
  • Sum = 44

If this is wrong can you tell me what assumption I'm making that  is incorrect.

What is the hyperbola 25x^2-100y-9y^2-90x-350=0 in standard form?
sergij07 [2.7K]
WE need to complete the square on the x and y terms:-

25x^2 - 100x - 9y^2 - 90y = 350
25(x^2 - 4x +    ) - 9(y^2 + 10x       )  =   350 + 25(  )  - 9(  )
25(x^2 - 4x  + 4 ) - 9(y^2 + 10x  + 25)  = 350  + 25(4)  - 9(25)
25(x - 2)^2 - 9(y + 5)^2 = 

25(x - 2)^2   -  9(y + 5)^2          =  225
----------------    --------------            --------
    225                 225                    225

  ( x  - 2)^2         (y + 5)^2  
  -------------   -   --------------  =    1         Answer
        9                    25
