Answer:
Hyperbola
Step-by-step explanation:
The polar equation of a conic section with directrix ± d has the standard form:
r=ed/(1 ± ecosθ)
where e = the eccentricity.
The eccentricity determines the type of conic section:
e = 0 ⇒ circle
0 < e < 1 ⇒ ellipse
e = 1 ⇒ parabola
e > 1 ⇒ hyperbola
Step 1. <em>Convert the equation to standard form
</em>
r = 4/(2 – 4 cosθ)
Divide numerator and denominator by 2
r = 2/(1 - 2cosθ)
Step 2. <em>Identify the conic
</em>
e = 2, so the conic is a hyperbola.
The polar plot of the function (below) confirms that the conic is a hyperbola.
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
9 / 6 = (2x - 6) / 4 (by the side splitter theorem)
6(2x - 6) = 36
12x - 36 = 36
12x= 72
x = 6
Answer: y = 32,000(1.08)^c
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the initial population
P = 32000
t = 1 year
R = 8%
Y = 34,560
To predict y the number of people living in town after x years
t = x
Y = P(1 + 8%)^t
Y = 32000( 1.08)^x
Answer:
10 spiders and 12 ants
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to create two equations
s = # of spiders
a = # of ants
s + a = 22 heads
since each spider and ant has one head
8s + 6a = 152 legs
since every spider has 8 legs and every ant has 6
s + a = 22 can be turned into s = 22 - a
now use substitution
8(22 - a) + 6a = 152
176 - 8a + 6a = 152
176 - 2a = 152
24 = 2a
a = 12
now that you have the number of ants you can solve for the number of spiders
s + a = 22
s + 12 = 22
s = 10
