Let the bushels of wheat is b and weight of the wheat is w.
We can say that more the bushels of wheat more will be the weight of the wheat.
Hence, the quantities vary directly.
Therefore, we have
, where k is the constant of variation.
Now, we have been given that 5 bushels of wheat weigh 136 kg. Thus, we have
Thus, the constant of variation is
Now, we have been given 3.5 bushels of wheat. Hence, we have
Therefore, 3.5 bushels of wheat weigh 95.2 kg
The distance from the center to where the foci are located exists 8 units.
<h3>How to determine the distance from the center?</h3>The formula associated with the focus of an ellipse exists given as;
c² = a² − b²
Where c exists the distance from the focus to the center.
a exists the distance from the center to a vertex,
the major axis exists 10 units.
b exists the distance from the center to a co-vertex, the minor axis exists 6 units
c² = a² − b²
c² = 10² - 6²
c² = 100 - 36
c² = 64
c = 8
Therefore, the distance from the center to where the foci are located exists 8 units.
