The altitude of the smaller triangle will be given as follows:
let the altitude of the smaller triangle be x
scale factor of small to large triangle is 3:5
but
scale factor=(length of small Δ)/(length of large Δ)
plugging in our values we get:
3/5=x/24
solving for x we get:
x=3/5×24
x=14.4 inches

Answer: 14.4 inches

Which equation represents a parabola that opens upward, has a minimum value of 3, and has an axis of symmetry at x= 3?
Ilya [14]

Answer:

y=(x-3)^2+3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

Which equation represents a parabola that opens upward, has a minimum value of y=3, and has an axis of symmetry at x= 3?

<em>Verify each case</em>

case 1) we have

y=(x+3)^2-6

This a vertical parabola open upward (the leading coefficient is positive)---> is ok

The vertex represent a minimum ---> is ok

The vertex is the point (-3,-6)

The minimum value of y=-6 ----> is not ok

The axis of symmetry is x=-3 ----> is not ok

case 2) we have

y=(x+3)^2+3

This a vertical parabola open upward (the leading coefficient is positive)---> is ok

The vertex represent a minimum ---> is ok

The vertex is the point (-3,3)

The minimum value of y=3 ----> is ok

The axis of symmetry is x=-3 ----> is not ok

case 3) we have

y=(x-3)^2-6

This a vertical parabola open upward (the leading coefficient is positive)---> is ok

The vertex represent a minimum ---> is ok

The vertex is the point (3,-6)

The minimum value of y=-6 ----> is not ok

The axis of symmetry is x=3 ----> is ok

case 4) we have

y=(x-3)^2+3

This a vertical parabola open upward (the leading coefficient is positive)---> is ok

The vertex represent a minimum ---> is ok

The vertex is the point (3,3)

The minimum value of y=3 ----> is ok

The axis of symmetry is x=3 ----> is ok
