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.

4tan^(2)x-((4)/(cotx))+sinxcscx 


Multiply -1 by the (4)/(cotx) inside the parentheses. 

4tan^(2)x-(4)/(cotx)+sinxcscx 


To add fractions, the denominators must be equal. The denominators can be made equal by finding the least common denominator (LCD). In this case, the LCD is cotx. Next, multiply each fraction by a factor of 1 that will create the LCD in each of the fractions. 


4tan^(2)x*(cotx)/(cotx)-(4)/(cotx)+sin... 


Complete the multiplication to produce a denominator of cotx in each expression. 

(4tan^(2)xcotx)/(cotx)-(4)/(cotx)+(cot... 


Combine the numerators of all expressions that have common denominators.

Volumeprism=volumecube times number of cubes
vprism/vcube=number of cubes

vprism=12*5*4.25=255
vcube=side^3=(1/4)^3=1/64

vprism/vcube=255/(1/64)=255*64=16320 cubes

1. -5(x - 2) - (x + 2) = 50
Serjik [45]

Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 5(x - 2) - (x + 2) = 50 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

- 5x + 10 - x - 2 = 50, that is

- 6x + 8 = 50 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

- 6x = 42 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = - 7
