Answer:

22.9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Since b² = a² - c² where a = vertex of major axis, 2a = 50 yards the length of the major axis. So , a = 50/2 = 25 yards. c = focus of chamber = 10 yards from center and b = vertex of minor axis.

So, b = ±√(a² - c²)

= ±√(25² - 10²)

= ±√(625 - 100)

= ±√525

= ±22.91 yards

≅ ± 22.9 yards

Since b = length of minor axis from center of chamber = 22.91 yards. So, he should build the whisper chamber 22.9 yards out from the center of the chamber.

I believe the answer is 18, because 5x3=15, so we can only assume that N is 6x3=18.
