X^2/16 + y^2/25 =1 The length of the major axis is: 5 10 25

Mathematics

serg [7]2 years ago

Answer:

Major axis length = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equation given is:

\frac{x^2}{16}+\frac{y^2}{25}=1

The above equation represents a standard ellipse of the form:

\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1

If a > b then 'a' is the semi-major axis length and 'b' is the semi-minor axis length.

If a < b, then 'a' is the semi-minor axis length and 'b' is the semi-major axis length.

On comparing the given equation with the standard form, we get:

a^2=16\\a=\sqrt{16}=4\\\\b^2=25\\b=\sqrt{25}=5

Here, b > a as 5 > 4. So, the length of major axis is twice the length of 'b' and is equal to:

Major axis length = 2\times b=2\times 5 =10

By the Fundamental Principle of Counting, there are

3\displaystyle\binom{11}{4}=3*\displaystyle\frac{11!}{4!(11-4)!}=3*\displaystyle\frac{11!}{4!7!}=990
