Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.

The general equation of a horizontal ellipse is

(x-h)2/a2 + (y-k)2/b2 = 1, at center (h,k) while a = semi-major axis, b = semi-minor axis. These are related through the distance of the focus from the center,c. a2 = b2 + c2.

If you draw the points on a coordinate plane, the center of the ellipse is at (0,0), so h and k equals 0. Then, the minor axis (2b) spans from 8 to -8 of the y-axis. This is equal to 16 units. Hence,

2b = 16
b = 8
b^2 = 64

The distance between the two foci is 2c. Thus,

2c = 12
c = 6
c^2 = 36

Then, a2 = 64 + 36 = 100. Substituting to the general equation:

x^2/100 + y^2/64 = 1

if p(x) = x+ 7/ x-1 and q (x) = x^2 + x - 2, what is the product of p(3) and q(2)? a. 50 b. 45 c. 40 d. 20 e. 6
Amanda [17]

Answer:

d. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question given, we will follow the steps below:

we need to first find p(3)

p(x) = x+ 7/ x-1

we will replace all x by 3 in the equation above

p(3) = 3+7 / 3-1

p(3) = 10/2

p(3) = 5

Similarly to find q(2)

q (x) = x^2 + x - 2,

we will replace x by 2 in the equation above

q (2) = 2^2 + 2 - 2

q (2) = 4 + 0

q (2) = 4

The product of p(3) and q(2)   =   5 × 4   = 20

Is (1,2) a solution of 6x-y>3
tangare [24]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if (1, 2 ) is a solution of the inequality, substitute the coordinates into the inequality and if satisfied then they are a solution, that is

(6 × 1) - 2 = 6 - 2 = 4 > 3

Since 4 > 3 then (1, 2 ) is a solution
