Answer:

<em>The actual distance between Rose Lake and the hiking trail is 7 miles.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual distance between Rose Lake and the main road is 3.5 miles and the scaled distance on the map is 2 inch.

Suppose, the actual distance between Rose Lake and the hiking trail is  d miles.

Given that, the scaled distance from Rose Lake to the hiking trail on the map is 4 inch.

So, <u>according to the ratio of "scaled distance" to the "actual distance"</u>, the equation will be......

\frac{2}{3.5}= \frac{4}{d} \\ \\ 2d=4*3.5=14\\ \\ d=\frac{14}{2}=7

Thus, the actual distance between Rose Lake and the hiking trail is 7 miles.

Find the equation of the ellipse with the following properties.
zalisa [80]
Equation of an ellipse:

(x-h)²/a² + (y-k)²/b² = 1
Since it passes through the origin (0,0) , then h = k = 0 hence the equation:
(x-0)²/a² + (y-0)²/b² = 1
x²/a² + y²/b² = 1

2a = major axis = 2.|5| + |-5| = 10. then a = 5 and a² = 25
2b = minor axis = 2.|3| + |-3| = 6. then b = 3 and b² = 9

Then the final equation is:
x²/25 + y²/9 = 1
