Answer:

2 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1.2 cups of Strawberries gives you 3 grams of sugar, doubling the amount of strawberries would be too much, 6 grams. But, since the amount needed is 2 grams, that is 2/3 of 1.2 cups of strawberries. 2/3 of 1.2 is 0.8, so add the original amount of srawberries with 2/3 of the 1.2 cups and you get 1.2 cups+ 0.8 cups= 2 cups

which of the following expresses the coordinates of the foci of the conic section shown below? (x-2)^2/4+(y+5)^2/9

elena55 [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{(x - 2) {}^{2} }{4} + \frac{(y + 5) {}^{2} }{9} = 1$

This is the equation of the ellipse. Since the denominator is greater for the y values, we have a vertical ellipse. Remember a>b, so a

The formula for the foci of the vertical ellipse is

(h,k+c) and (h,k-c).

where c is

Our center (h,k) is (2, -5)

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} - {b}^{2}$

Here a^2 is 9, b^2 is 4.

${c}^{2} = 9 - 4$

${c}^{2} = 5$

$c = \sqrt{5}$

So our foci is

$(2, - 5 + \sqrt{5} )$

and

$(2, - 5 - \sqrt{5} )$

Hoochie [10]

Answer: $1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length of sandwich = $10\dfrac12\text{ feet}=\dfrac{21}{2}\text{ feet}$

Total people = 14

If everyone gets a same sized piece , then length of each piece should be

$\dfrac{\text{ Length of sandwich}}{\text{Total people}}$

$=\dfrac{\dfrac{21}{2}}{14}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{21}{2\times14}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{2\times2}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{4}\text{ feet}\\\\=1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}$

Hence, length of each piece = $1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}$
