grigory [225]2 years ago

Answer:

1. Diego is incorrect because 2.375 divided by 0.025 does not equal 500.

2. 2.375 / 500 = 0.00475 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We take the thickness of the stack and divide it by the thickness of each piece of paper to get how many pieces of paper are in the stack. In this case, Diego's guess indicates that there are only 95 pieces of paper in the stack.

2. The proper formula for this would question would be 2.375 / x = 500.

x represents the thickness of each piece of paper. We can solve for x by multiplying both sides by x to get 2.375 = 500x  then we divide both sides by 500 to isolate x.  

2.375 / 500 = x    

0.00475 = x

Expand the left side:

(3x + 2) (5x + 1) = 15x² + 10x + 3x + 2 = 15x² + 13x + 2

Then a = 15 and b = 13, so a - b = 2.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Hello,

If center is (0,0)

x²/a²+y²/b²=1 for a half horizontal axis of a, and a half vertical axis of b

Here

a=2 ==> a²=4

b=8 ==> b²=64

\boxed{\dfrac{x^2}{4}+ \dfrac{y^2}{64}=1}\\
