Find an equation in standard form for the ellipse with the vertical major axis of length 10 and minor axis of length 8

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:   The required equation of the ellipse in standard form is (y^2)/(25)+(x^2)/(16)=1.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the equation of an ellipse in standard form with the vertical major axis of length 10 units and minor axis of length 8 units.

Since the major axis is vertical, so it will lie on the Y-axis. Let the standard form of the ellipse be given by

(y^2)/(a^2)+(x^2)/(b^2)=1,~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

where the length of major axis is 2a units and length of minor axis is 2b units.

According to the given information, we have

2a=10\n\n\Rightarrow a=(10)/(2)\n\n\Rightarrow a=5

and

2b=8\n\n\Rightarrow b=(8)/(2)\n\n\Rightarrow b=4

Substituting the values of a and b in equation (i), we get

(y^2)/(5^2)+(x^2)/(4^2)=1\n\n\n\Rightarrow (y^2)/(25)+(x^2)/(16)=1.

Thus, the required equation of the ellipse in standard form is (y^2)/(25)+(x^2)/(16)=1.

Answer 2
Answer: (x/h)^2+(y/v)^2=1   where h is the horizontal radius and v is the vertical radius

In this question it seem that they are saying the length of the axis and not radius so I would cut them in half so that they are radii...then:

(x/4)^2+(y/5)^2=1

x^2/16+y^2/25=1

Answers

Answer:

I will need to buy 22.5 pounds of turkey and pay $23.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

Each person is planned to eat 2 x 3/8 pound servings of turkey for thanksgiving dinner. This means each person will eat

2\cdot(3)/(4)=(3)/(2)

pounds of turkey.

There are going to be 15 people at the dinner, thus the total turkey needed is:

15\cdot(3)/(2)=22.5~pounds

The turkey costs $1.05 per pound, thus the total cost is

22.5*$1.05 = $23.63

I will need to buy 22.5 pounds of turkey and pay $23.63
