<h3>Answer:</h3>
Equation of the ellipse = 3x² + 5y² = 32
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
<h2>Given:</h2>
- The centre of the ellipse is at the origin and the X axis is the major axis
- It passes through the points (-3, 1) and (2, -2)
<h2>To Find:</h2>
- The equation of the ellipse
<h2>Solution:</h2>
The equation of an ellipse is given by,
Given that the ellipse passes through the point (-3, 1)
Hence,
Cross multiplying we get,
- 9b² + a² = 1 ²× a²b²
- a²b² = 9b² + a²
Multiply by 4 on both sides,
- 4a²b² = 36b² + 4a²------(1)
Also by given the ellipse passes through the point (2, -2)
Substituting this,
Cross multiply,
- 4b² + 4a² = 1 × a²b²
- a²b² = 4b² + 4a²-------(2)
Subtracting equations 2 and 1,
- 3a²b² = 32b²
- 3a² = 32
- a² = 32/3----(3)
Substituting in 2,
- 32/3 × b² = 4b² + 4 × 32/3
- 32/3 b² = 4b² + 128/3
- 32/3 b² = (12b² + 128)/3
- 32b² = 12b² + 128
- 20b² = 128
- b² = 128/20 = 32/5
Substituting the values in the equation for ellipse,
Multiplying whole equation by 32 we get,
3x² + 5y² = 32
<h3>Hence equation of the ellipse is 3x² + 5y² = 32</h3>
This is adding two vectors, one magnitude 300 direction east, and one magnitude 100 direction 30 degrees northeast.
For the resulting sum we can use the Law of Cosines or just add up the components. Let's try it both ways.
Components first. In the east direction we have
300 + 100 cos 30° = 300 + 100(√3/2) = 386.60 miles per hour
In the north direction we have
0 + 100 sin 30° = 100 (1/2) = 50 miles per hour
So a total speed of
sqrt{386.6^2 + 50^2} = 389.82 miles per hour
Answer: 389.82
--------
OK let's try the Law of Cosines. We have sides 300 and 100 and included angle 150°.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a third degree polynomial since we have 3 zeros. We find these zeros by factoring the given polynomial. The zeros of a polynomial are where the graph of the function goes through the x-axis (where y = 0). If x = -4, the factor that gives us this value is (x + 4) = 0 and solving that for x, we get x = -4. If x = -2, the factor that gives us that value is (x + 2) = 0 and solving that for x, we get x = -2. Same for the 5. The way we find the polynomial that gave us these zeros is to go backwards from the factors and FOIL them out. That means that we need to find the product of
(x + 4)(x + 2)(x - 5). Do the first 2 terms, then multiply in the third.
, which simplifies to
No we multiply in the final factor of (x - 5):
which simplifies to
If you are aware of the method for factoring higher degree polymomials, which is to use the Rational Root Theorem and synthetic division, you will see that this factors to x = -4, -2, 5. If you know how to use your calculator, you will find the same zeros in your solving polynomials function in your apps.
Answer:
Therefore, Steve will paint house for 20.6 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Steve determines that it would take them 9 days to paint the house together (if they were both healthy) and that it would take Janet (when healthy) 16 days to paint the house alone.
We conclude that in 1 day Janet painted 1/16 of the house. In nine days, Janet painted 9/16 of house.
So, 7/16 of house paint Steve in nine days.
We have the following proportion:
Therefore, Steve will paint house for 20.6 days.
