Answer:

x=-\frac{5}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

y^2=5x-----(1)

Which is the equation of a parabola along x-axis,

From equation (1),

(y-0)^2=\frac{4}{4}\times 5(x-0)

(y-0)^2=4(\frac{5}{4})(x-0)-----(2)

We know that, the standard form of a parabola along x-axis is,

(y-k)^2=4p(x-h)

Where, the directrix is,

x = h-p

By comparing equation (2),

The directrix of the given parabola is,

x = 0 - \frac{5}{4}\implies x = -\frac{5}{4}

Which relations are functions?
guapka [62]

Answer:

The 1st and 2nd graph are functions while the 3rd and 4th aren't.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first and second graph doesn't have more than one output for each input. The third and fourth graph isn't a function since there's more than one output for the same input given. If you do the vertical line test, then you'll know which one is a function and which one is not a function. Hope this helps :)

A container built for transatlantic shipping is constructed in the shape of a right rectangular prism. Its dimensions are 7 ft b
____ [38]

Given:

Dimensions are 7 ft by 5 ft by 8.5 ft

Contents weigh 0.21 pound

Contents worth $8.80 per pound

Find-: value of container contents.

Sol:

Volume is:

\begin{gathered} Volume\text{ = }7\times5\times8.5 \\  \\ =297.5 \end{gathered}

The formula of density is:

\text{ Density =}\frac{\text{  Mass}}{\text{ Volume}}

So,

\begin{gathered} 0.21=\frac{\text{ Weight  of contents in container}}{\text{ Volume of container}} \\  \\ 0.21=\frac{\text{ Weight}}{297.5} \\  \\ 0.21\times297.5=\text{ Weight} \\  \\ \text{ Weight of contents in container = }62.475\text{ Pound} \end{gathered}

Now $8.80 per pound

For 62.475 pounds the value is:

\begin{gathered} =62.475\times8.80 \\  \\ =549.78 \end{gathered}

So the value of the container contents is 549.78
