About 11% - I first subtracted 250 from 282, to get 32. I then did 32/282 to get .11.... You round that out to about 11%

Pls help it says what is volume and how is it measured pls help
solmaris [256]

Volume is the measure of how much space a 3d object takes up (like area for 2d objects). It is measured in cubic parts (5 cubic inches, 12 cubic centimeters). There are many volume formulas. The easiest and most common is of the volume of a rectangular prism, for which you do lenght * width * height..

I hope this answers your question!

What is an equation of the parabola with vertex at the origin and focus (0, 0.75)?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

x^{2} =3y

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the focus is a points on the vertical axis, that means the parabolla opens vertically, and has the form

x^{2} =4py

Because the parameter p is positive and equal to 0.75. Additionally, the vertex is at the origin, that's why the equation is this simple.

Replacing the parameter value, we have

x^{2} =4(0.75)y\\x^{2} =3y

Therefore, the equation of a parabolla with vertex at the origin and focus at (0, 0.75) is x^{2} =3y.
