kondaur [170]

The square root of 100 is 10. The drawing must be 10 cm by 10 cm.

1 cm = 2 ft, so 10 cm must equal 20 feet.

20 * 20 = 400 square feet :)

Suppose a parabola has vertex (6,5) and also passes through the point (7,7). Write the equation of the parabola in vertex form.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Choice B: $y = 2\, (x - 6)^{2} + 5$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

For a parabola with vertex $(h,\, k)$ , the vertex form equation of that parabola in would be:

$\text{$y = a\, (x - h)^{2} + k$ for some constant $a$}$ .

In this question, the vertex is $(6,\, 5)$ , such that $h = 6$ and $k = 5$ . There would exist a constant $a$ such that the equation of this parabola would be:

$y = a\, (x - 6)^{2} + 5$ .

The next step is to find the value of the constant $a$ .

Given that this parabola includes the point $(7,\, 7)$ , $x = 7$ and $y = 7$ would need to satisfy the equation of this parabola, $y = a\, (x - 6)^{2} + 5$ .

Substitute these two values into the equation for this parabola:

$7 = (7 - 6)^{2}\, a + 5$ .

Solve this equation for $a$ :

$7 = a + 5$ .

$a = 2$ .

Hence, the equation of this parabola would be:

$y = 2\, (x - 6)^{2} + 5$ .
