Let's go though the choices.
Major axis will get shorter. TRUE, CHECK ME
As the plane moves closer to the vertex the ellipse stays the same shape but shrinks.
Ellipse will become a circle. FALSE
As long as the plane is tilted, the ellipse can't be a circle.
Ellipse will degenerate to a point. TRUE, CHECK ME
Eventually the plane gets to the vertex, at which point (ha!) we have a single point.
Nappes? Is that a word? FALSE
The plane needs a steeper angle, steeper than the generators, before it can pass through both halves.
The generators are the lines through the vertex that form the cone. The plane isn't steep enough to hold any of them. FALSE
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. y - 2 = -3(x - 4)
y - 2 = -3x + 12
y = -3x + 14
2. y - 6 = -1/2(x + 5)
y - 6 = -1/2x - 5/2
y - 12/2= -1/2x - 5/2
y = -1/2x + 7/2
<u>Answer</u>
The first student was right.
The length of the long side is at least 13 inches.
<u>Explanation</u>
The perimeter of any figure is the distance all round.
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+w). Where l is length and w is the width.
2(l + w) ≥ 30
2{(x-3) + 2} ≥ 30
2(x-3+2) = 30
2(x - 1) ≥ 30
x - 1 ≥ 15
x ≥ 16
When x = 16,
l = 16-3
= 13 inches
The length of the long side is 13 inches. The first student was right.
Answer:
30 baskets
Step-by-step explanation:
The experimental probability Pa that Amir will make a basket is 0.4;
Pa = 0.4
the experimental probability Pj that juju with make the same basket is 0.6;
Pj = 0.6
Total number of shoot Nt = 150
Number of basket Amir will make is;
Na = Pa × Nt
Na = 0.4 × 150
Na = 60 basket
Number of basket juju will make is;
Nj = Pj × Nt
Nj = 0.6 × 150
Nj = 90 basket
