Answer:

  (a)  x^2/16 +y^2/9 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The form for the equation of an ellipse centered at the origin is ...

  (x/(semi-x-axis))^2 +(y/(semi-y-axis))^2 = 1

The vertex values tell you the semi-x-axis is 4 units, and the semi-y-axis is 3 units. Then you have ...

  (x/4)^2 +(y/3)^2 = 1

  x^2/16 +y^2/9 = 1

__

In case you don't remember that form, you can try any of the points in the equations. The equation that works will quickly become apparent.

Jamaal has 20 models of planes and cars. He has three times as many cars as planes. What is the ratio of his cars to total model
Korvikt [17]

Answer: 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

If  Jamal has 3 times as many cars as  planes then we could represent it by the equation   x + 3x = 20  where x is the number of planes  and 3x is the number of cars.

x+ 3x =20   solve for x

4x = 20

x = 5    

Number of planes  =  5

Number of cars   =  3(5) = 15  

Now the ratio of his cars to the total model will be  \frac{15}{20}  which reduces to 3/4.
