3) Write the following numbers from highest to lowest: 6288, -8, 2301, -282, 202

The minimum and maximum distances from a focus to a point on an ellipse occur when that point on the ellipse is an endpoint of t

Sauron [17]

The answer is True.

Explanation:
Let a = major axis
Let b = minor axis
Let c = focal length.

Consider the right focus, located a distance c from the center of the ellipse (at the origin).
From the right focus to the right point on the major axis is equal to a-c. This is the minimum distance.
From the right focus to the left point on the major axis is equal to a+c. This is the maximum distance.

A soccer ball is kicked toward the goal. The height of the ball is modeled by the function h(t) = −16t2 + 48t where t equals the

zlopas [31]

1. The function $h(t)=-16t^{2}+48t$ is a parabola of the form $ax^{2}+bx$ . The the formula for the axis of symmetry of a parabola is $x= \frac{-b}{2a}$ . We can infer from our function that $a=-16$ and $b=48$ , so lets replace those values in our formula:
$x= \frac{-b}{2a}$
$x= \frac{-48}{-2(16)}$
$x= \frac{-48}{-32}$
$x= \frac{3}{2}$
$x=1.5$
We can conclude that to the left of the line of symmetry the ball is reaching its maximum height, and to the right of the line of symmetry the ball is falling.

2. Lets check how much time the ball takes to reach its maximum height and return to the ground. To do that we are going to set the height equal to zero:
$0=-16t^{2}+48t$
$-16t(t-3)=0$
$t=0$ or $t-3=0$
$t=0$ or $t=3$
From our previous point we know that the ball reaches its maximum time at $t=1.5$ , which means that it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 1.5 seconds to fall back to the ground.

Answer:

1. 15, 16, 17

2. 21, 23, 25

3. 44, 46, 48

4. -4, -3, -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

Step 1. Writing an equation

Let's set x as the second number in the equation.

This means that the first number is x-1, and the third number is x+1.

We know that the sum of the three numbers is 48, so:

(x-1)+x+(x+1)=48

Step 2. Solving the equation

x-1+x+x+1=48

x+x+x-1+1=48

3x=48

x=16

So the answer is 15, 16, 17

2)

Again, let's set x as the middle number.

Odd numbers are 2 numbers apart, so the first number is x-2, and the third is x+2.

This means that the equation must be:

(x-2)+x+(x+2)=69

x+x+x=69

3x=69

x=23

The numbers are 21, 23, and 25

3)

x will be the middle number

Even numbers are 2 numbers apart, so the first number is x-2, and the third is x+2.

This means that:

x-2+x+x+2=138

x+x+x=138

3x=138

x=46

The numbers are 44, 46, and 48.

4)

x will be the middle number.

x-1=first number, x+1=third number

x-1+x+x+1=-9

3x=-9

x=-3

The numbers are -4, -3, and -2.

What is the area of the pentagon, rounded to the nearest tenth?

Rudik [331]

The area of the pentagon, rounded to the nearest tenth will be 32.7 square cm. Then the correct option is C.

<h3>What is a polygon?</h3>

The polygon is a 2D geometry that has a finite number of sides. And all the sides of the polygon are straight lines connected to each other side by side.

A regular pentagon has an apothem measuring 3 cm and a perimeter of 21.8 cm.

Then the side length of the pentagon will be

5 x Side length = 21.8 cm

Side length = 4.36 cm

Then the area of the pentagon, rounded to the nearest tenth will be

Area of pentagon = 5 x area of triangle

Area of pentagon = 5 x 1/2 x 4.36 x 3

Area of pentagon = 32.7 square cm

Thus, the correct option is C.
