You should double the sugar as well, but first let us simplify the 2 2/3 to become 8/3, then double that to have 16/3,
Which is then can be simplified to 5 1/3
The Slope of this line is -3
<span>First of all, there should be coherence for the units of measurement -- either they are all meters or they are all ft. I would assume they are all ft.
The correct answer is 75 ft above. T
The explanation is the following: suppose the ground level is the x-axis, the 2 feet of the arch lie respectively on (0,0) and (100,0) on the ground level. Since the arch is 100ft high, the vertex of the parabola will be the point (100,100). Thus, we can find the equation describing the parabola by putting the three points we know in a system and we find that the equation of the parabola is y=(-1/100)x^2+2
To find the focus F, we apply the formula for the focus of a vertical axis parabola, i.e. F(-b/2a;(1-b^2+4ac)/4a).
By substituting a=-1/100, b=2 and c=0 into the formula, we find that the coordinates of the focus F are (100,75).
So we conclude that the focus lies 75ft above ground.</span>
The correct answer is the first one
85/100 is greater
85/100=.85 or 85%
21/25=.84 or 84%
.85 is greater than .84 so 85/100 > 21/25
