we conclude that if the scale factor from S to M is 3/2, then the scale factor from M to S is 2/4.

<h3></h3><h3>What is the scale factor from M to S?</h3>

Suppose we have a figure S. If we apply a stretch of scale factor K to our figure S, we can say that all the dimensions of figure S are multiplied by K.

So, if S represents the length of a bar, then after the stretch we will get a bar of length M, such that:

M = S*K

If that scale factor is 3/2, then we have the case of the problem:

M = (3/2)*S

We can isolate S in the above relation:

(2/3)*M = S

Now we have an equation (similar to the first one) that says that the scale factor from M to S is 2/3.

Then we conclude that if the scale factor from S to M is 3/2, then the scale factor from M to S is 2/4.

Write each of the following expressions without using absolute value: |z−6|−|z−5|, if z<5

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The answer is <em>1</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:

$|z-6|-|z-5|,\ if\ z$

To find:

The expression without absolute value.

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the absolute value function:

$y = f(x) = |x| =\left \{ {{x\ if\ x>0} \atop {-x\ if\ x$

i.e. value is x if x is positive

value is -x if x is negative

Here the given expression contains two absolute value functions:

$|z-6|$ and $|z-5|$

Using the definition of absolute value function as per above definition.

$|z-5| =\left \{ {{(z-5)\ if\ z>5} \atop {-(z-5)\ if\ z$

$|z-6| =\left \{ {{(z-6)\ if\ z>6} \atop {-(z-6)\ if\ z$

Now, it is given that z < 5 that means z will also be lesser than 6 i.e. z < 6

So, given expression $|z-6|-|z-5|,\ if\ z$ will be equivalent to :

$-(z-6) - (-(z-5))\\\Rightarrow -z+6 +z-5 = \bold{1}$

So, the expression is equivalent to <em>1</em>.

The height of the tunnel at the center is 35ft, and the vertical clearance must be 21 ft at a point of 8ft from the center. Find

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

y=-0.215x^2+35

Step by Step:

Let, $h=0$ , $k=35$ , $x=8$ , $y=21$

We know that, the general equation of the parabola.

$y-k = a(x-h)^2$

$\Rightarrow y=a(x-h)^2+k .........(i)$

Substitute the value of $h, k, x, y$ in equation $(i)$ and find the value of $a.$

$21=a(8-0)^2+35$

$\Rightarrow 21=a\times 8^2+35$

$\Rightarrow 21=64a+35$

$\Rightarrow 64a=21-35$

$\Rightarrow 64a=-14$

$\Rightarrow a=\frac{-14}{65}$

$\Rightarrow a=-0.215$

Hence, the equation of the parabola is:

$y=-0.215x^2+35$
