Part A Assume the ball passes through the points ( 3 , 8 ) , ( 5 , 20 3 ) , and ( 6 , 5 ) . Use this data to set up a system of

three equations and three unknowns (a, b, and c) that will allow you to find the equation of the parabola. Write the system in the space provided.

The three system of equations are 9a + 3b + c = 8, 75a + 15b + 3c = 20, and 36a + 6b + c = 5.

<h3>What is a solution to a system of equations? (SOLUTION GRAPHICALLY)</h3>

For a solution to be the solution to a system, it must satisfy all the equations of that system, and like all points satisfying an equation are in their graphs, so solution to a system is the intersection of all its equation at a single point(as we need a common point, which is going to be the intersection of course)(this can be one or many, or sometimes none).

The general equation of parabola is given as,

y = ax² + bx + c

The first point is (3,8), therefore, we can write,

8 = a(3)² + b(3) + c

9a + 3b + c = 8

The second point is (5, 20/3), therefore, we can write,

20/3 = a(5)² + b(5) + c

75a + 15b + 3c = 20

The third point is (6, 5), therefore, we can write,

5 = a(6)² + b(6) + c

36a + 6b + c = 5

Hence, the three system of equations are 9a + 3b + c = 8, 75a + 15b + 3c = 20, and 36a + 6b + c = 5.

Answer:

  12.9 square yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is an equilateral triangle, so we can assume that the three faces have the same dimensions. Each of those face triangles has an area of ...

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(3 yd)(2 yd) = 3 yd²

The base area is computed using the same formula and the given height:

  A = 1/2(3 yd)(2.6 yd) = 3.9 yd²

Then the total surface area is that of the base and the three faces:

  SA = (3.9 yd²) + 3(3 yd²) = 12.9 yd² . . . total surface area

Silvio earns 10% for each car sale he makes while working at a used car dealership. If he sells a used car for $2,000, what is h
Fynjy0 [20]

Commission = 10%

If the car was sold for $2000

commission = 10% of $2000

commission = 0.1 x $2000

commission = $200

Find the polar equation of the conic with the focus at the pole, directrix x = 4, and eccentricity 1.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Choice D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The eccentricity of the conic section is 1, implying we are looking at a parabola. Parabolas are the only conic sections with an eccentricity of 1.

Next, the directrix of this parabola is located at x = 4. This implies that the parabola opens towards the left and thus the denominator of its polar equation contains a positive cosine function.

Finally, the value of k in the numerator is simply the product of the eccentricity and the absolute value of the directrix;

k = 1*4 = 4

This polar equation is given by alternative D
