An artist wants to make an elliptical sign out of a rectangular piece of wood. The wood piece has a length of 60 inches and a width of 40 inches. The artist wants to make the largest elliptical piece possible from the wood.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question doesn't seem complete, but the question is likely to ask for 2 things: the equation of the ellipse and it's foci. So I'll respond to that. Also, the ellipse will be at the center since the artist wants the largest.

Firstly, the equation of an ellipse at the center is given by:

(x²/a²) + (y²/b²) = 1 where a > b.

Since the artist wants to make the largest ellipse, then the length of the rectangle will be the length of the ellipse, same applies to the width.

Since the length is 60, then a = 60/2 = 30

Since the width is 40, then b = 40/2 = 20

Therefore, the equation of the ellipse is:

(x²/30²) + (y²/20²) = 1

To find the foci we need to know the center and this can be gotten by

c² = a² – b²

c² = 30² – 20² = (30 + 20)(30 – 20) = (50)(10) = 500

c = √(500) = 10√(5).

The foci, since it's at th center would be:

(–10√(5), 0) and (+10√(5), 0)

Answer 2

The largest ellipse that the artist can make on the considered rectangular wooden piece will have area as: [tex]\dfrac{x^2}{900} + \dfrac{y^2}{400} = 1\\[/tex](assuming its major and minor axes lie on x and y axis respectively)

What is the equation of ellipse if its major and minor axis are given?

Suppose that the major axis is of the length 2a units, and that minor axis is of 2b units, then if major axis is on x-axis and minor axis is on y-axis, then the equation of that ellipse would be:
[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{a^2} + \dfrac{y^2}{b^2} =1[/tex]

For this case, as we have rectangular piece of board the maximum ellipse will have it's major axis of length 60 inches, and of minor axis as 40 inches.

Thus, we have:

[tex]a = 60/2 = 30\: \rm inches\\b = 40/2 = 20 \: inches[/tex]

Thus, if the rectangle is placed such that the major axis is on x-axis, and minor axis is on y-axis, then the equation of that ellipse would be:

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{30^2} + \dfrac{y^2}{20^2} = 1\\\\\dfrac{x^2}{900} + \dfrac{y^2}{400} = 1\\[/tex]

Thus, the largest ellipse that the artist can make on the considered rectangular wooden piece will have area as: [tex]\dfrac{x^2}{900} + \dfrac{y^2}{400} = 1\\[/tex](assuming its major and minor axes lie on x and y axis respectively)

The golden ratio is a solution to a quadratic equation.

a. Find the precise value for Φ by solving Φ2 − Φ − 1 = 0.

b. Which method of solving a quadratic equation did you use? Explain your reasoning.

c. What type of number is Φ? Why can it only be approximated by a decimal value?

Answers

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.    Φ^2 − Φ − 1 = 0

Φ2 − Φ = 1

(Φ - 0.5)^2 - 0.25 = 1

(Φ - 0.5)^2 = 1.25

Φ - 0.5 = √(1.25)      (We only take the positive root).

Φ  = 0.5 + √(1.25)

b. I used Completing the square.

Answer:

10. 9

In the first question we can solve using the Pythagorean theorem. It states that the hypotenuse in a right triangle or the longest side of the triangle, squared is equal to the other 2 sides, squared. Its expressed as so: C^2 = A^2 + b^2 where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the other sides oft eh triangle.

Therefore,

15^2 = 12^2+x^2

225=144+x^2

81=x^2

x=9

__________________________________________________________

11. x=12

In this figure, there are 2 right triangles on the sides of the square. If we can find the lengths of the base of both triangles then we can find x using the Pythagorean theorem. the total base is 21 and the square is 11. 11+a+b=21. We can assume that both triangles are congruent and therefore we can solve this equation:

11+a+b=21

a+b=10

5+5=10

b=5

a=5

The bases of the two triangles are 5 and the hypotenuse is 13. Now we can solve using the Pythagorean theorem:

c^2 = a^2+b^2

13^2=5^2+x^2

169=25+x^2

144=x^2

144= 12 x 12

x=12

__________________________________________________________

12.

The diagnol of a triangle is the hypotenuse and since the length is the square root of 3, we have all the information we need.

c^2 = a^2+b^2

2^2 = (square root of 3)^2+b^2

4=3+b^2

1=b^2

b=1

Find the reference angle of 155o. –25o 25o –65o 65o

Answers

Answer:

The reference angle for 155° is 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

The reference angle is the angle that the angle arm makes with the x-axis be it clock wise or anti-clock wise.

The reference angles are obtained by the following reference

0 - 90° => Angle

90° - 180° => 180 - angle

Our given angle is: 155° so we will use the second rule

The reference angle will be:

180° - 155° = 25°

Hence,

The reference angle for 155° is 25°

Blake is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars and making $22 per hour tutoring. In a given week, he can work no more than 16 total hours and must earn no less than $220. If x represents the number of hours washing cars and y represents the number of hours tutoring, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Answers

Answer:

9x + 22y ≥ 220

x + y ≤ 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First x is number of hours washing cars and y is number of hours tutoring.

He makes $9 per hour on cars, $22 per hour tutoring. So we use variables as substitutes for actual values.

That is 9x + 22y. He can't make less than 220, so use the sign greater or equal to 220.

He also must work no more than 16 hours. Total hours is x+y, and no more than 16 means use the sign less than or equal to.

please give thanks by clicking the heart button :)

The number of hours washing cars and number of hours tutoring, if Blake is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars, making $22 per hour tutoring, are 10.2 and 5.85 respectively. The graph is also attached below.

What is equation?

A mathematical statement that has an "equal to" symbol between two expressions with equal values is called an equation. As in, 3x + 5 Equals 15, instances.

Given:

Blake is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars, making $22 per hour tutoring,

Total working hour = 16

Total money to be earned = $220

Write the equation of the above statement as shown below,

x + y = 16

9x + 22y  = 220

Solve the above equation using a graph,

y = 5.85 and x = 16 - 5.85 = 10.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles in a Circle

The central angle is formed between two radii and its vertex at the center of the circle.

An inscribed angle is formed between two chords whose vertex lies on the circumference of a circle.

The measure of the central angle a formed by the same lines that form an inscribed angle b is:

a = 2b

This means the angle of a = 98° is double of the inscribed angle of 35°+m:

98 = 2(35 + m)

Dividing by 2:

49 = 35 + m

Solving for m:

m = 49 - 35 = 14

m = 14°

Angles m and n are also formed by the same lines, and:

n = 2m

Thus:

n = 28°

Answer: m=14°, n=28°

Ok!

Answer:

fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 2x - 3 → (1)

x + y = 18 → (2)

Substitute y = 2x - 3 into (2)

x + 2x - 3 = 18

3x - 3 = 18 ( add 3 to both sides )

3x = 21 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 7

Substitute x = 7 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 2(7) - 3 = 14 - 3 = 11

Solution is x = 7, y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is as follows;

Write an equation of the line that goes through the point (6, 12) and has a slope of 2/3

Solution

Here, we have a point and a slope, and we want to write the equation of the line

The method we shall use here is the point slope method

Mathematically, that will be;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

(x1,y1) = (6,12)

m = 2/3

y-12 = 2/3(x-6)

3(y-12) = 2(x-6)
