Both are not functions because functions cannot have repeating x values
We know that
<span>Since the focus and vertex are above and below each other, rather than side by side, I know that this ellipse must be taller than it is wide.
</span>Then
a²<span> will go with the </span>y<span> part of the equation
</span>Also, since the focus is 8 <span>units below the center, then </span><span>c = 8
</span>since the vertex is 17<span> units above, then </span><span>a = 17
</span>The equation b²<span> = a</span>²<span> – c</span>²<span> gives me
</span>b²=17²-8²-----> b²=225
the equation is
y²/a²+x²/b²=1------> y²/289+x²/225=1
the answer isy²/289+x²/225=1see the attached figure
(x+6)(x+8) = 0
x = -6 or x = -8
I'm just wondering, does the equation happen to be 2x^2 + 14x + 48? That would make more sense with the answer I got.
Answer:
45 rows will need to be built to hold 1350 cars. (for 30 spaces a row)
19 fewer rows are needed if the rows fit 50 cars (for the 50 spaces a row)
Step-by-step explanation:
for the first question divide 1350 by 30 and the second divide 1350 by 50, good luck!
