We know that
the equation of the parabola is of the form
y=ax²+bx+c
in this problem
y=−1/4x²<span>−x+3
where
a=-1/4
b=-1
c=3
</span><span> the coordinates of the focus are
</span>
(-b/2a,(1-D)/4a)
where
D is the discriminant b²-4ac
D=(-1)²-4*(-1/4)*3-----> D=1+3---> D=4
therefore
x coordinate of the focus
-b/2a----> 1/[2*(-1/4)]----> -2
y coordinate of the focus
(1-D)/4a------> (1-4)/(-4/4)---> 3
the coordinates of the focus are
(-2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 8/n by 7n/7n to get 56n/7n^2
Answer: it will trave 56.89 meters before coming to rest.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric progression since the distance travelled (height) by the ball is reducing by a constant ratio, r. Since the number of times that the ball will bounce is infinite, then we would apply the formula for determining the sum of the terms in a geometric progression to infinity which is expressed as
S = a/(1 - r)
where
S = sum of the distance travelled by the ball
a = initial distance or height of the ball
r = common ratio
From the information given,
a = 128/9
r = (32/3)/(128/9) = 0.75
Therefore,
S = (128/9)/(1 - 0.75) = 56.89 meters

Answer:
B) positive
Step-by-step explanation:
For even-index roots, which may be either positive or negative, the <u> </u><u><em>positive</em></u><u> </u> root is called the principal root.
