The profile of the cables on a suspension bridge may be modeled by a parabola. The central span of a bridge is 1270 ft long and

157 ft high. The parabola y=0.00039x^2 gives a good fit to the shape of the cables, where IxI less than of equal to 635, and x and y are measured in feet. Approximate the length of the cables that stretch between the tops of the two towers.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

span of bridge L=1270\ ft

height of span h=157\ ft

Equation of Parabola

y=0.00039x^2

|x| i.e.

-635

\frac{dy}{dx}=2\times 0.00039

length of Arc=\int_{a}^{b}\sqrt{1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2}

=\int_{-635}^{635}\sqrt{1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2}

=\int_{-635}^{635}\sqrt{1+(0.00078x)^2}

=2\times \int_{0}^{635}\sqrt{1+(0.00078x)^2}

=2\times (660.08)

=1320.16\ ft

iVinArrow [24]

Part A)

Recall that:

1) The function represented by the graph of the function f(x) translated vertically n units up and horizontally m units left is:

f(x+m)+n\text{.}

2) The function represented by the graph of the function f(x) reflected over the x-axis is:

-f(x)\text{.}

Now, notice that g(x) is the function f(x) reflected over the x-axis and then translated vertically 6 units up and horizontally 4 units left.

Answer Part A:

Options B, C, and D.

Part B) To graph g(x) we will reflect the graph of f(x) over the x-axis and then we will translate it vertically 6 units up and horizontally 4 units left.

We know that the graph of f(x)=|x| is:

The above graph reflected over the x-axis is:

Finally, the above graph translated vertically 6 units up and horizontally 4 units left is:
