Hello James!
Graph using the slope and y - intercept.
Slope:

Y-intercept: -3
The graph looks like this ↓↓↓
Vertex at the origin and opening down → y=ax^2
Width: w=16
x=w/2→x=16/2→x=8
x=8, y=-16→y=ax^2→-16=a(8)^2→-16=a(64)→-16/64=a(64)/64→-1/4=a→a=-1/4
y=ax^2→y=-(1/4)x^2
7 m from the edge of the tunnel → x=w/2-7=8 m-7 m→x=1 m
x=1→y=-(1/4)x^2=-(1/4)(1)^2=-(1/4)(1)→y=-1/4
Vertical clearance: 16-1/4=16-0.25→Vertical clearance=15.75 m
Please, see the attached file.
Answer: Third option 15.75 m
Answer:
12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Tan D = opp/adj = EF/DE = 12/5
Answer: -3x^2-3x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(x^2+x-1)+12 = -3x^2-3x-3+12 = -3x^2-3x+9
Answer:
7 x 10^-5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.00001 is 1 x 10^-5 so multiply that by 7
