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.

The radius of the base of a cylinder is increasing at a rate of 7 millimeters per hour. The height of the cylinder is fixed at 1
Ilya [14]

Answer:

The rate of change of the volume of the cylinder at that instant = 791.28\ mm^3/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rate of increase of base of radius of base of cylinder = 7 mm/hr

Height of cylinder = 1.5 mm

Radius at a certain instant = 12 mm

To find rate of change of volume of cylinder at that instant.

Solution:

Let r represent radius of base of cylinder at any instant.

Rate of increase of base of radius of base of cylinder can be given as:

\frac{dr}{dt}=7\ mm/hr

Volume of cylinder is given by:

V=\pi\ r^2h

Finding derivative of the Volume with respect to time.

\frac{dV}{dt}=\pi\ h\ 2r\frac{dr}{dt}

Plugging in the values given:

\frac{dV}{dt}=\pi\ (1.5)\ 2(12)(7)

\frac{dV}{dt}=252\pi

Using \pi=3.14

\frac{dV}{dt}=252(3.14)

\frac{dV}{dt}=791.28\ mm^3/hr (Answer)

Thus rate of change of the volume of the cylinder at that instant = 791.28\ mm^3/hr

Solve: 2x+3y=1<br> y=-2x+11
Sauron [17]

Answer:

(8, -5); x=8; y=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

i'll be solving via substitution

2x+3y=1; y=-2x+11

2x + 3(-2x +11) = 1

2x -6x +33 = 1

-4x = -32

x = 8

2(8) + 3y = 1

16 + 3y = 1

3y = -15

y = -5

(8, -5)

Check:

-5 = -2(8) + 11

-5 = -16 + 11

-5 = -5

In 1950, Town A had a population of 200 people and the population increased by 200 people each year. In 1950, Town B had a popul
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Town B will eventually overtake Town A

in 1990 Town B will have a larger population

Step-by-step explanation:

To work out how big town A will be in 1990 you need to do 200 + (200x40) because you add 40 years worth of increased population onto the starting population

To work out how big town B will be in 1990 you need to use the equation 200 X 1.1^40 because to work out plus 10 percent you need to do 1.1 and do it to the power of 40 for how many years

in 1990 town a will have a population of 8200 and town B will have a population of 9051.85
