The equation x2 16 + y2 9 = 1 defines an ellipse, which is graphed above. in this excercise we will approximate the area of this
Citrus2011 [14]
(a) 4 
(b) y = sqrt(9 - (9/16)x^2)  
The best guess to the formula using knowledge of the general formula for an ellipse is: 
x^2/16 + y^2/9 = 1  
(a). An ellipse is reflectively symmetrical across both the major and minor axis. So if you can get the area of the ellipse in a quadrant, then multiplying that area by 4 would give the total area of the ellipse. So the factor of 4 is correct. 
 (b). The general equation for an ellipse is not suitable for a general function since it returns 2 y values for every x value. But if we restrict ourselves to just the positive value of a square root, that problem is easy to solve. So let's do so:
 x^2/16 + y^2/9 = 1
 x^2/16 + y^2/9 - 1 = 0
 x^2/16 - 1 = - y^2/9
 -(9/16)x^2 + 9 = y^2
 9 - (9/16)x^2 = y^2
 sqrt(9 - (9/16)x^2) = y
 y = sqrt(9 - (9/16)x^2)

Determine the slope <br><br> 2y-4x=1
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is mx+b=y

The equation is not simplified yet.

2y-4x=1

Add 4x to both sides

2y=1+4x

Divide by 2

1/2+2x

For this just identify. M=slope. The number next to the x is 2. So the answer is 2

There are 20 players on a soccer team. From them, a captain and an alternate captain have to be chosen. How many possibilities a
tester [92]

Answer:

190 possibilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is called 20 choose 2, given by the formula for combinations

C(20,2) = 20! / (2! (20-2)!) = 190

alternatively, we can reason it this way:

there are 20 choices to choose a captain and 19 choices for an alternate captain for a total of 380 ways.

However, there are 20 choices to choose an alternate captain and 19 choices for a captain for a total of 380 ways.

Since we are essentially double counting every choice of the posts, we need to divide 380 by 2 to get 190 ways.
