A sound receiving dish used at outdoor sporting events is constructed in the shape of a paraboloid, with its focus 8 inches from

the vertex. Determine the width of the dish if the depth is to be 3 feet. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

w≅8.46ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

focus=8

vertex=(0,0)

width=?

depth (y)=3ft

parabola equation: (x-h)^{2}=4p(y-k); then for V=(0,0), x^{2} =4py, be focus(f)=8in;  x^{2} =4*8*y=32y → y=\frac{x^{2} }{32}

we have that y=3ft then 3=\frac{x^{2} }{32}; but 1in≅0.083ft so x^{2} =3*32*0.083=7.968 → x=±2.82, finally w=3*2.82≅8.46ft

Simple subtraction. to find how many robin has, subtract 9 from 23, which is 14. so robin has 14 comic books. robin has 5 more than lee, so subtract 5 from 14, which is 9. so lee has 9 comic books

The distance between two points is 6_/6.One endpoint is (4,-1). It is known that the y-coordinate of the other endpoint is 9.
babunello [35]

The x-coordinate of the given endpoint will be "x = 4 \pm 2\sqrt{29}".

According to the question,

The end points are:

  • (x_1,y_1) = (4,-1)
  • (x_2, y_2) = (x,9)

Distance,

  • 6\sqrt{6}

As we know,

The distance formula,

→ Distance = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

By substituting the values, we get

→         6\sqrt{6} = \sqrt{(x-4)^2+(9+1)^2}

→          216= (x-4)^2+100

→   (x-4)^2 = 116

→       x-4 = \pm \sqrt{116}

→       x-4=\pm 2\sqrt{29}

→             x = 4 \pm 2\sqrt{29}                

Thus the above answer is right.
