Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
For ellipses, the length of the major axis is represents as:
Major axis = 
where
is called the semi-major axis.
In this case since the major axis is equal to 10 units:

solving for the semi-major axis
:

and also the minor axis of an ellipse is represented as:
Minor axis = 
where
is called the semi-minor axis.
Since the minor axis has a length of 8 units:

solving for b:

Now we can use the equation for an ellipse centered at the origin (0,0):

and substituting the values for
and
:

and finall we simplify the expression to get the equation of the ellipse:

Answer:
Ok, first in our series we can see two numbers in the Sigma, one bellow 0, and other above, 4.
This means that the value of k will go from 0 to 4, then all the numbers in the sum are:
(-1/2)^0 + (-1/2)^1 + (-1/2)^2 + (-1/2)^3 + (-1/2)^4
So we have 5 terms in our series.
b) to see the sign in each term, we must solve the powers, remember that:
(-1)^n is -1 if n is odd, and is equal to 1 if n is even, so we have:
(-1/2)^0 + (-1/2)^1 + (-1/2)^2 + (-1/2)^3 + (-1/2)^4
= 1 -1/2 + 1/4 - 1/8 + 1/16.
So the sign in each term of the series alternates.
Answer:5
Step-by-step explanation:
20 divided by 4 equals 5
To solve for the area of the triangle
Use the formula 1/2(base *height)
1/2 * 17* 4
68/2
34
I believe the area of the triangle is therefore 34ft
