Amira is painting a rectangular banner 2 1/4 yards wide. the banner will have a blue background. amira has enough paint to cover 1 1/2 square yards of the wall. the school colors are blue and yellow, so amira wants to add yellow rectangles on the left and right sides of the blue rectangle. the yellow rectangles will each be 3/4 yards wide and the same height as the blue rectangle. what will be the total area of the two yellow rectangles?

36x2 + 49y2 = 1,764 the foci are located at: (-√13, 0) and (√13,0) (0, -√13) and (0,√13) (-1, 0) and (1, 0)edit: the answer is (- the square root of 13, 0) and (the square root of 13, 0)

What is the solution of the equation? 35√(x+2)3+3=27
