Answer:

\frac{x^2}{36} + \frac{y^2}{100} = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

The equation of the ellipse

This is calculated as:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1

Where:

b =6 ---- height

a = 0.5 * 20 =10 --- width

So:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1

\frac{x^2}{6^2} + \frac{y^2}{10^2} = 1

\frac{x^2}{36} + \frac{y^2}{100} = 1

Determine the value of r so the line passing through each pair of points has the given slope
Nonamiya [84]
We can use the slope formula to solve this one:
m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}
\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2-3}{r-6}
(r-6)=2(-1)
r-6=-2
r=4

Write an equation for line L in​ point-slope form and​ slope-intercept form.
Natalka [10]
Line L's slope intercept form is

y = 4x + 7

It's point slope form is

y - 3 = 4 (x - -1)

You can check the point slope form and match it with the slope intercept form:

y - 3 = 4 (x - -1)

y - 3 = 4x + 4

y = 4x + 7

y = 4x + 7  = y = 4x + 7

Decide whether you would use a permutation, a combination, or neither. Next, write the solution using permutation notation or co
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Permutation is used.

No. of arrangements = 1260

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation is used for choosing & arrangement of  'r' out of 'n' objects, when sequence is important.

Total no. of alphabets in CORRECT = 7

C is repeated twice, R is repeated twice

So, Total No. of arrangements =   <u>7 !</u>

                                                   (2!)(2!)

= 5040 / 4

= 1260
