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>

Given that ΔPQR is similar to ΔPTS, which statement MUST be true? A) m∠PST = m∠QPR B) m∠TPS = m∠RPQ C) m∠SPT = m∠PTS D) m∠PRQ =
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two triangle are similar if their corresponding sides are in the same proportion or the corresponding angles are same.

It is given that the ΔPQR is similar to ΔPTS. It means all corresponding angles are same.

\angle R=\angle S

\angle Q=\angle T

\angle P=\angle P

Angle P can be defined as

\angle QPR=\angle TPS

\angle RPQ=\angle TPS

Therefore option B is correct.

\angle PST\neq\angle QPR

\angle SPT\neq\angle PTS

\angle PRQ\neq\angle PTS

Therefore option A, C and D are incorrect.

We are driving to Las Vegas. The sign says that it is one hundred forty-five miles to Las Vegas.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

233.35488 km (Rounded to 233 km)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you convert miles to kilometers then you would use this conversion factor:

1 mile = 1.609344 km (or 1.61 km)

so in this case,

145 mile = 1.609344 km x 145

145 mile = 233.35488 km

I could also round it to 233 km.

Since your on a trip... i hope u enjoy ur journey to Las Vegas!
