Using the Pythagorean Theorem, it is found that the lot has an area of about 35 acres.

<h3>What is the Pythagorean Theorem?</h3>

The Pythagorean Theorem relates the length of the legs l_1 and l_2 of a right triangle with the length of the hypotenuse h, according to the following equation:

h^2 = l_1^2 + l_2^2

Researching the problem on the internet, the lot has one leg of 800 feet and the hypotenuse is of 3900 feet, hence the other leg is found as follows:

800^2 + l^2 = 3900^2

l = \sqrt{3900^2 - 800^2}

l = 3817 feet.

<h3>What is the area of a right triangle?</h3>

The area of a right triangle is given by half the multiplication of it's legs. Hence, the area of the lot, in square feet, is given by:

A = 0.5 x 800 x 3817 = 1,526,800 square feet.

Each square feet is equivalent to 0.000029568 acres, hence the area in acres is given by:

Aa = 0.000029568 x 1,526,800 = 35 acres.

The equation of a parabola is shown.
WARRIOR [948]
The axis of symmetry for this parabola is the x-axis. The general form of the equation is:
4p(x-h) = (y-k)^2
where the focus has the coordinates of (h+p,k)

Manipulating the given equation to the general form:
4(1/3)(x-7)^2 = (y - 0)^2

Therefore the coordinates of the focus is:
(7+(1/3),0)

The answer is A.) (71/3,0)

Answer:

You just described it! You descibe the probability is measured by the measure of one against the whole. 20 is what you are after, and 40 is the total amount, so 20/40, or 1/2, is correct.

Have a great day!
