Answer:
-1/4x² + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Path of sprinkler is modeled by the quadratic function :
w(x) = -1/4(x^2 -12 )
w(x) = height of the water, in meters, at position x
The height of ceiling as a constant or Coefficient = w(x)
Expanding w(x)
-1/4(x^2 -12 )
-1/4 * x² + 1/4 * 12
-1/4x² + 3
The height of ceiling is -1/4x² + 3
Let's look at the corresponding ratios:

And we see that the three aren't equal.
Hence, $\Delta ABC$ and $\Delta EDC$ are not similar.
Answer:
1 5/8 too short
Step-by-step explanation:
The cable on the truck is 18 and 3/8 ... to complete the fraction into a whole number we would need 5 more parts in order to complete the entire 8 parts of the fraction. This would make the cable a whole 19 feet. Since Ryan needs 20 ft, this would leave us needing 1 more foot. Therefore, the cable in the truck is
1 5/8 too short
Answer:
2x-5=y
I'm not sure how your graphing tool works so I'll give you five or so coordinates
(-1,-7)
(1,-3)
(0,-5)
(2,-1)
(-2,-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
You first need to write an equation that you can graph
Knowing that the slope is two we can write the following equation
2x+b=y
We also know that when x=1 y=-3
This gives us 2*1+b=-3
which means that 2+b=-3
subtract 2 from both sides to figure out the b=-3
This means that the line you have to graph is 2x-5=y
