Two skaters are practicing at the same time on the same rink. A coordinate grid is superimposed on the ice. One skater follows t

he path y = −2x + 32, while the other skater follows the curve y = −2x2 + 18x. Find all points where they might collide if they are not careful.

Answer:

The skaters will collide at the points;

(2,28) and (4,24)

Step-by-step explanation:

The points they might collide will be the points when both y are equal;

-2x + 32 = -2x^2 + 18x

2x^2 -18x -2x + 32 = 0

2x^2 -20x + 32 = 0

2x^2 - 16x - 4x + 32 = 0

2x(x -8) -4( x -8) = 0

(2x -4)(x -8) = 0

2x = 4 or x = 8

x = 4/2 or x = 8

hence; x = 2 or 8

Now let’s get the y value

at x = 2, just substitute into any of the 2

y = -2x + 32

y = -2(2) + 32

y = -4 + 32 = 28

at x = 4

y = -2(4) + 32

y = -8 + 32

y = 24

The points that they will collide are;

(2,28) and (4,24)

Answer:

20 cm

because

1 cm = 0.1 dm

so 1 dm = 10 cm

then:

2 dm = 2 * 10 cm = 20 cm

An army base in the desert is located at the origin, O of an x-y coordinate system. A soldier at point P needs to determine his
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer/step-by-step explanation

The soldier at point P lie on a parabola because he determined his position and distances from towns A and B through measurement of the difference in timing (phase) of radio signals received from the two towns.

This analysis of the signal time difference gives the difference in distance of the soldier at P, from the towns.

This process is known as hyperbolic navigation.

These distances of point P from towns A and B is estimated by the soldier at point P, by measuring the delay localizes the receiver to a hyperbolic line on a chart.

Two hyperbolic lines will be drawn by taking timing measurements from the

towns A and B .

Point P will be at the intersection of the lines.

These distances of point P(The soldier's positions) from town A and town B were determined using the timing of the signals received from the two towns, due to the fact that point P was on a certain hyperbola.
