<h3>Answer:</h3>

Equation of the ellipse = 3x² + 5y² = 32

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

<h2>Given:</h2>

  • The centre of the ellipse is at the origin and the X axis is the major axis

  • It passes through the points (-3, 1) and (2, -2)

<h2>To Find:</h2>

  • The equation of the ellipse

<h2>Solution:</h2>

The equation of an ellipse is given by,

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

Given that the ellipse passes through the point (-3, 1)

Hence,

\sf \dfrac{(-3)^2}{a^2} +\dfrac{1^2}{b^2} =1

Cross multiplying we get,

  • 9b² + a² = 1 ²× a²b²
  • a²b² = 9b² + a²

Multiply by 4 on both sides,

  • 4a²b² = 36b² + 4a²------(1)

Also by given the ellipse passes through the point (2, -2)

Substituting this,

\sf \dfrac{2^2}{a^2} +\dfrac{(-2)^2}{b^2} =1

Cross multiply,

  • 4b² + 4a² = 1 × a²b²
  • a²b² = 4b² + 4a²-------(2)

Subtracting equations 2 and 1,

  • 3a²b² = 32b²
  • 3a² = 32
  • a² = 32/3----(3)

Substituting in 2,

  • 32/3 × b² = 4b² + 4 × 32/3
  • 32/3 b² = 4b² + 128/3
  • 32/3 b² = (12b² + 128)/3
  • 32b² = 12b² + 128
  • 20b² = 128
  • b² = 128/20 = 32/5

Substituting the values in the equation for ellipse,

\sf \dfrac{x^2}{32/3} +\dfrac{y^2}{32/5} =1

\sf \dfrac{3x^2}{32} +\dfrac{5y^2}{32} =1

Multiplying whole equation by 32 we get,

3x² + 5y² = 32

<h3>Hence equation of the ellipse is 3x² + 5y² = 32</h3>

You design a new app for cell phones. Your revenue for x downloads is given by f(x) = 3x Your profit
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

p = 2.7x - 20

p(90) = $223

Step-by-step explanation:

revenue → f(x) = 3x  ,where x is the number of downloads.

the statement “Your profit p is $20 less than 90% of the revenue for x downloads”

<u><em>means</em></u>

p=90\% f\left( x\right)  -20

<u><em>means</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>p=\frac{90}{100} \times f\left( x\right)  -20

<u><em>means</em></u>

p=\frac{9}{10} \times (3x)  -20

<u><em>means</em></u>

p=\frac{9}{10} \times (3x)  -20

<u><em>means</em></u>

p=2.7x -20

………………………………

the profit for 90 downloads :

= p(90)

= 2.7×(90) - 20

= $223
