Answer:

The center is located at (2, –1).  

The major axis is 8 units long.

The vertices are 4 units above and below the centre.

The foci are √7 units above and below the centre.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the ellipse looks like the one below.

The properties of a vertical ellipse are

\textbf{Vertical ellipse}\\\dfrac{ (x - h)^{2} }{b^{2}} + \dfrac{(y - k)^{2}}{a^{2}} = 1\begin{cases}\text{Centre} = (h,k)\\\text{Dist. between vertices} = 2a\\\text{Vertices} = (h, k\pm a)\\\text{Dist. between covertices} = 2b\\ \text{Covertices}= (h\pm b, k)\\c = \sqrt{a^{2} - b^{2}}\\\text{Dist. of foci from centre} = c\\\text{Foci} = (h, k\pm c)\\\end{cases}

A. Centre

TRUE. The centre is at (2,-1).

B. Major axis

TRUE

Length of major axis = 3 - (-5) = 3 + 5 = 8

C. Minor axis

False

Length of minor axis = 5 - (-1) = 5 + 1 = 6

D. Vertices

TRUE

Distance between vertices = 8 = 2a

a - 8/2 = 4

Vertices at (h, k ± a) = (2, -1 ± 4)

E. Foci

TRUE

c² = a² - b² = 4² - 3² = 16 - 9 = 7

c = √7

The foci are √7 above and below the centre.

F. Foci

False.

The foci are on a vertical line.

Order the ratios from least to greatest. 5:3, 6:4, 11/3, 3 to 1, 33:100
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

33:100- 6:4- 5:3- 11/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First turn into even fractions

5:3= 1 2/3

6:4=1 1/2

11/3= 3 2/3

3/1= 3

33:100= 1/3

Then look at the numbers.
