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.

Given (1, -3) and (5, 1). The slope of the line is The equation of the line is
guapka [62]

To find the slope of the line we can use the following formula:

\frac{y.2 - y.1}{x.2 - x.1} = m

1 - (-3)/5 - 1

4 / 4

1

<h3>The slope of the line is equal to 1.</h3>

To find the equation, we can just use slope-intercept form.

We already know the slope, so our current equation is y = x

By knowing the slope, we can apply the slope to our lowest pair of coordinates to find the y value when x = 0.

Subtract 1 from the x and y values of (1, -3)

(0, -4) is our new point, and so we know the y-intercept is -4.

<h3>Our equation for the line is y = x - 4</h3>

vodomira [7]
The answer is 19 feet because 6 yards is equal to 18 feet and then add the 1 foot and you get 19 feet.

So the answer is 19

Given : Diameter of the right circular cone ==> 8 cm

It means : The Radius of the right circular cone is 4 cm (as Radius is half of the Diameter)

Given : Volume of the right circular cone ==> 48π cm³

We know that :

\bigstar \ \ \boxed{\textsf{Volume of a right circular cone is given by : $\pi r^2\dfrac{h}{3}$}}

where : r is the radius of the circular cross-section.

             h is the height of the right circular cone.

Substituting the respective values in the formula, we get :

\mathsf{\implies \pi \times (4)^2 \times \dfrac{h}{3} = 48\pi}

\mathsf{\implies 16 \times \dfrac{h}{3} = 48}

\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{h}{3} = 3}

\implies \boxed{\mathsf{h= 9 \ cm}}

<u>Answer</u> : Height of the given right circular cone is 9 cm
