A fountain on a lake sprays water in a parabolic arch modeled by the equation y = -0.3x2 + 3x. A beam of light modeled by the eq

uation -2x + 5.5y = 19.5 passes through the fountain to create a rainbow effect. If the beam cuts the water spray at points A and B, such that point B is at a higher level than point A, what distance from the ground level is point A?

See the attached figure.

Water model ⇒⇒⇒ y = -0.3 x² + 3x        ( blue graph )
Light model   ⇒⇒⇒ -2x + 5.5 y = 19.5    ( red graph )
The intersection between the two models A and B
A = ( 1.657 , 4.148 )
B = ( 7.13 , 6.138 )

<span>B is at a higher level than point A
</span>
<span>The distance from the ground level to point A = y-coordinate of point A
                                                                        = 4.148
</span>

what is the volume of the prism given that each cube is defined by the fractional edge length of 1/3 inch
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
The equation for volume is length times width times height. So to solve this multiple 1/3x1/3x1/3 because 1/3 is the length, width , and height of the cube(cubes have equal sides). The answer should be 1/27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The kitchen of Amita would be a rectangular area contains 3 and 3 ÷ 4 square meters

And, the width of her kitchen is 1 and 1 ÷ 2 meter

So based on the above information, the length of Amita kitchen is

Here you divide the rectangular area by the width

= (3 and 3 ÷ 4) ÷ (1 and 1 ÷ 2)

= 2 and 1 ÷ 2

Hence, the  length in meters of Anita's kitchen is  2 and  1 ÷ 2
