The length of another axis for the given ellipse will be around 25.6125 feet so none of the options will be correct.
What is an ellipse?a regular oval form produced when a cone is cut by an oblique plane that does not intersect the base, or when a point moves in a plane so that the sum of its distances from two other points remains constant.
In another word, an ellipse is a curve that becomes by a point moving in such a way that the sum of its distances from two fixed points is a closed planar curve produced.
General equation of an ellipse
(x 2 / a 2 )+ (y2 / b 2 )= 1
Given that
the plot of land is 40 feet across one axis
so 2a = 40 feet
a = 20 feet
The foci are 16 feet from the center so
c = 16
Now we know that
c = √(b² - a²)
c² = b² - a²
16² = b² - 20²
b = 25.6125
So, the length of the minor axis will be around 25.6125 feet.

Suppose you work for a political organization and you are interested in hearing how the residents of New York State feel about a particular issue. You are asked to create a sample of at least 10000 residents using a CLUSTER methodolgy. Explain how you could create this sample of New York State residents?
Since the state is broken up into counties, and each county subdivided into precincts, this provides a natural way to form cluster samples.
If the precinct populations are too large, then you can further subdivide based on household or building residence. In other words, you can randomly select a building and consider that a separate cluster. All residents of that building would be part of the cluster.
In cluster sampling, the idea is that whichever clusters you select, you survey every person who resides in that cluster. So naturally you need to be careful not to go overboard.
The scatterplot shows the average miles per gallon versus the age, in years, of a car.
A graph titled Fuel efficiency has age (years) on the x-axis, and miles per gallon on the y-axis. Points are at (1, 25), (2, 32), (3, 26), (4, 23), (5, 19), (6, 16), (7, 17), (8, 14), (9, 13), (10, 10).
If age was on the vertical axis and miles per gallon on the horizontal axis, how would the correlation change? Select all statements that would apply to the new correlation coefficient.

Intelligence quotients (IQs) on the Stanford-Binet intelligence test are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 16.
Use the 68-95-99.7
Rule to find the percentage of people with IQs between 84 and 116.
Answer:
Approximately 68% of people have IQs between 84 and 116.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean of 100, standard deviation of 16.
Percentage of people with IQs between 84 and 116.
84 = 100 - 16
116 = 100 + 16
So within 1 standard deviation of the mean, which, by the Empirical Rule, is approximately 68%.
In what quadrant would the triangle be if rotated 90 degrees
I strongly believe the answer is 2, if it isnt that it must be 3.
"Rotated around the origin", as the question actually says, puts it in Quadrant-II (2).
But the way you put the question, just saying the triangle is rotated 90°, leaves it right where it is, in Quadrant-I, with vertex-H on the bottom.

Answer:
[tex]\frac{da}{dt}=-95.2m/s^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Slant height [tex]h=13ft[/tex]
Velocity [tex]v=\frac{dx}{dt}=8[/tex]
Distance [tex]d=12ft[/tex]
Generally the equation for area is mathematically given by

Symbolically, the union of X and Y is denoted by X ∪ Y. As an example, suppose set A = {1, 2, 3} and set B = {1, 3, 5}.
Then, the union of sets A and B would be {1, 2, 3, 5}.
About 6% of the population of a large country is math phobic. If two people are randomly selected, what is the probability both are math phobic?
Answer:
0.0036
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Proportion of population that are math phobic = 6% = 6/100 = 0.06
P(math phobic) = 0.06
If two selections are made ; probability that both are math phobic ;
P1 = selection 1 = 0.06
P2 = selection 2 = 0.06
Probability that both are math phobic :
P1 * P2 = (0.06 * 0.06) = 0.0036
Polymer composite materials have gained popularity because they have high strength to weight ratios and are relatively easy and inexpensive to manufacture. However, their nondegradable nature has prompted development of environmentally friendly composites using natural materials. The article "Properties of Waste Silk Shod Fiber/Cellulose Green Composite Films" (. of Composite Materials, 2012: 123-127) reported that for a sample of 10 specimens with 2% fiber content, the sample mean tensile strength (MPa) was 51.3 and the sample standard deviation was 1.2. Suppose the true average strength for 0% fibers (pure cellulose) is known to be 48 MPa. Does the data provide compelling evidence for concluding that true average strength for the WSF/cellulose composite exceeds this value?

The baker bought the buttercream icing from Crave Cupcakes. Calculate how many containers of icing the baker needs to buy in order to ice a wedding cake. Each container of icing contains 16 ounces of icing. If it takes 56 ounces of icing to cover 678 square inches of cake, calculate the total cost for the icing before tax if each 16 ounce(2 cup) container of icing costs $10.
Answer:
$40.
Step-by-step explanation:
You need 4 16oz containers of icing to fully cover the cake. As each container costs $10, and you need 4 containers, the total cost of icing to cover the wedding cake, before tax, is $40.
Casey's phone service charges a flat monthly fee of $30 for the first 1000 minutes of calls and $0.40 per minute over 1000. Determine Casey's monthly charge if he makes 1,100 minutes of calls?
Answer:
Casey's monthly charge for making 1,100 minutes of calls is $70.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a piecewise function to model the situation.
Since Casey's phone service only charges a monthly fee of $30 for the first 1000 minutes, we can write that for calling t minutes:
[tex]\displaystyle C(t) = 30\text{ if } t\leq 1000[/tex]
In other words, the total cost is only $30 is the total minutes of call is less than 1000 minutes.
However, if the total minutes of calls is greater than 1000, then its $0.40 per minute on top of the 30. Thus:
[tex]\displaystyle C(t) = 30 + 0.4(t-1000)\text{ if } t>1000[/tex]
All together, our piecewise function will be:
[tex]\displaystyle C(t) = \begin{cases} 30 & t\leq 1000 \\ 30 + 0.4(t-1000) & t>1000\end{cases}[/tex]
We want to determine Caseys monthly charge if he makes 1,100 minutes of calls. So, t = 1100. Since 1100 > 1000, we will use the second equation. This yields:
[tex]C(1100)= 30+0.4((1100)-1000)[/tex]
Evaluate:
[tex]\displaystyle C(1100) = 30+0.4(100) = 30+40=\$70[/tex]
Casey's monthly charge for using 1,100 minutes of call is $70.

An auto transport truck holds cars. A car dealer plans to bring in new cars in June and July. If an auto transport truck is filled for each delivery, except for the last one, how many full truckloads are needed and how many cars will be in the last truck?
Answer:
95 truckloads
Last truck = 10 cars
Step-by-step explanation:
Capacity of auto truck = 12 cars
Total number of cars to be brought in = 1150
The number of truckloads required :
Total number of cars to be brought in / capacity of auto truck
Number of truckloads = 1150 / 12 = 95.83333
This means that the number of full truckloads required will be, the whole number = 95
The last truck won't be full and will contain :
1150 - (95 * 12)
1150 - 1140
= 10 cars

A credit card advertises an annual interest rate of 23%.
What is the equivalent monthly interest rate?
Given:
A credit card advertises an annual interest rate of 23%.
To find:
The equivalent monthly interest rate.
Solution:
We know that,
1 year = 12 months
It is given that, the credit card advertises an annual interest rate of 23%. So, the equivalent monthly interest rate is:
[tex]\dfrac{23\%}{12}=1\dfrac{11}{12}\%[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{23\%}{12}\approx 1.9167\%[/tex]
Therefore, the equivalent monthly interest rate is [tex]1\dfrac{11}{12}\%[/tex] and the approximate equivalent monthly interest rate is 1.9167%.
The difference of a number and its opposite is 28. Find
the number.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets break this word problem down:
"The difference" means we're going to be finding x - y ("difference" means we're finding how much one value "differs" from the other)
"a number and it's opposite" so we're doing x - y, where y = -x. So already, we can re-write this as x - (-x) or x + x
"is 28" so x + x = 28 ("is" always means "equals")
"Find the number" so we're finding x.
x - (-x) = 28 (I went back a step so I could write everything out more plainly)
simplify
x + x = 28
add
2x = 28
divide both sides by 2 to get x on its own
x = 14
Answer:
14

CUSTOMERS AT A STORE
The bar graph above shows the number of customers who shopped at a store Monday through Thursday of
one week. If the number of customers on Friday was a one-fifth increase over the number of customers on
Thursday, how many customers shopped at the store on Friday?
O 480
O 500
O 525
O 600
Answer:
480
Step-by-step explanation:
We are looking for the total number of customers in the store on Friday using a chart and a fractional increase.
On Thursday there were 400 customers, so we need to find the amount of the increase.
1/5 of 400 =80
Increase Thursday's amount, 400, by the amount of the increase, 80, to find the number of customers on Friday.
400+80 = 480
Friday has 480
Answer:
480
Step-by-step explanation:
400 + 1/5(400) = 400 + 80 = 480
