Answer:

V(x,y) = \left(3,\frac{23}{5}   \right)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let consider the following linear equation systems by using the known points and second-grade polynomial:

(-1, 7)

a + b + c = 7

(5, 7)

25\cdot a + 5\cdot b + c = 7

(6,10)

36\cdot a + 6 \cdot b + c = 10

After some algebraic manipulation, the values for the polynomial coefficients are found:

a = \frac{3}{5}, b = -\frac{18}{5}, c = 10

The polynomial is:

y = \frac{3}{5}\cdot x^{2} - \frac{18}{5}\cdot x +10

Lastly, the vertex is found by further handling:

y - 10 = \frac{3}{5}\cdot (x^{2}-6\cdot x + 9) - \frac{27}{5}

y -\frac{23}{5} = \frac{3}{5}\cdot (x-3)^{2}

The coordinates for the vertex are:

V(x,y) = \left(3,\frac{23}{5}   \right)

Two of the given points have the same y-value. The midpoint of those two will be on the line of symmetry, as is the vertex. The x-value there is (-1+5)/2 = 2.

Answer:

The new volume will be V + 0.06V or 1.06V

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the sphere increased by 6% or 0.06V. This means the total volume of the sphere will be V + 0.06V or 1.06V.
