Answer:

$f(x)=6(x-2)^2-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation in vertex form is

$f(x)=a(x-2)^2 - 4$

Substituting in the coordinates (1,2) to find a,

$2=a(1-2)^2 - 4 \\ \\ 2=a-4 \\ \\ a=6 \\ \\ \therefore f(x)=6(x-2)^2-4$

mixas84 [53]

Call the rate in still water vs;
upstream you have: vs-v=6/4
downstram you have: vs+v=6/3
where v is the rate with which the river flows.
rearranging:
vs-v=3/2
vs+v=2
from the second you have v=2-vs substitute into the first:
vs-2+vs=3/2
2vs=7/2
vs=7 mi/hr

4) A window is in the form of a rectangle surmounted by a semicircle. The rectangle is of clear glass, whereas the semicircle is

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

l=0.1401P\\

w =0.2801P

where P = perimeter

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a window is in the form of a rectangle surmounted by a semicircle.

Perimeter of window =2l+\pid/2+w

$P= 2l+3.14 (w/2)+w$

Or $P = 2l+2.57w\\l = \frac{P-2.57w}{2}$

To allow maximum light we must have maximum area

Area = area of rectangle + area of semi circle where rectangle width = diameter of semi circle

$A=lw +\pi \frac{w^2}{8}$

$A=lw +\pi \frac{w^2}{8}\\A=w*\frac{P-2.57w}{2}+0.3925w^2\\2A= Pw-2.57w^2+(0.785w^2)\\2A' = P-5.14w+1.57 w\\2A" =-5.14+1.57$

Hence we get maximum area when i derivative is 0

i.e. $P-5.14w+1.57 w=0\\3.57w =P\\w = \frac{P}{3.57} =0.2801P$

$l = \frac{P-2.57w}{2}\\l = 0.1401P$

Dimensions can be

$l=0.1401P\\w =0.2801P$
