(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)
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. The function that will produce the same graph as the function y=(x+1)(x-3) would be <span>y=x^2-2x-3. Both equations are the same. You can confirm it by simplifying the equation. Hope this answers the question.</span>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>Identity Used </u></em>: 

Answer:
P = 2(2y+3)
P = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 2 (L+W) or P = L + L + W + W
P = 2 (2y+3)
P = 4y+6
Plug in 6 for y.
P = 24+6
P = 30
If the integers have the same absolute value ... they're the same number
but with different signs ... then their sum is zero.
Example: (plus) 927 added to (negative) 927 = zero
If the integers have different absolute values ... they're different numbers with different
signs ... then their sum has the same sign as the one with the bigger absolute value.
Examples:
==> (plus) 92 added to (negative) 91
92 and 91 are 1 number apart on the number line.
The positive number is bigger than the negative number.
So the sum is +1 .
==> (plus) 35 added to (negative) 37
35 and 37 are 2 numbers apart on the number line.
The negative number is bigger than the positive one.
So the sum is -2 .
