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

You are given g(x)=4x^2 + 2x and
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

324

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

g(x)=4x^2+2x\\ \\f(x)=\int\limits^x_0 {g(t)} \, dt

Find:

f(6)

First, find f(x):

f(x)\\ \\=\int\limits^x_0 {g(t)} \, dt\\ \\=\int\limits^x_0 {(4t^2+2t)} \, dt\\ \\=\left(4\cdot \dfrac{t^3}{3}+2\cdot \dfrac{t^2}{2}\right)\big|\limits^x_0\\ \\=\left(\dfrac{4t^3}{3}+t^2\right)\big|\limits^x_0\\ \\= \left(\dfrac{4x^3}{3}+x^2\right)-\left(\dfrac{4\cdot 0^3}{3}+0^2\right)\\ \\=\dfrac{4x^3}{3}+x^2

Now,

f(6)\\ \\=\dfrac{4\cdot 6^3}{3}+6^2\\ \\=288+36\\ \\=324

Simplfy the expression: (x - 9)^2
deff fn [24]
The answer would be x^2-18x+81. This can be found be writing "(x-9)^2" twice, and distributing. Combine like terms, and you should get this answer.
