4. Gloria the grasshopper is working on her hops.

aivan3 [116]

The path that Gloria follows when she jumped is a path of parabola.

The equation of the parabola that describes the path of her jump is $\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{Height = 20}$

$\mathbf{Length = 28}$

Assume she starts from the origin (0,0)

The midpoint would be:

$\mathbf{Mid = \frac 12 \times Length}$

$\mathbf{Mid = \frac 12 \times 28}$

$\mathbf{Mid = 14}$

So, the vertex of the parabola is:

$\mathbf{Vertex = (Mid,Height)}$

Express properly as:

$\mathbf{(h,k) = (14,20)}$

A point on the graph would be:

$\mathbf{(x,y) = (28,0)}$

The equation of a parabola is calculated using:

$\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}$

Substitute $\mathbf{(h,k) = (14,20)}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}$

$\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

Substitute $\mathbf{(x,y) = (28,0)}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{0 = a(28 - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{0 = a(14)^2 + 20}$

Collect like terms

$\mathbf{a(14)^2 =- 20}$

Solve for a

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{20}{14^2}}$

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{20}{196}}$

Simplify

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{5}{49}}$

Substitute $\mathbf{a =- \frac{5}{49}}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

Hence, the equation of the parabola that describes the path of her jump is $\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

. Caroline had 400 stamps in her collection. 1 10 th of them were Indian stamps, Onethird of the remaining stamps were from Euro

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

So 400 stamps

African---> 100

Indian------> 1/10 x 400

= 40

European---> 400-40=360

1/3 x 360

= 120

so 120+40+100= 260

400-260

= 140 stams from US

Can a line be parallel to a segemnt?

zmey [24]

You can describe lines, rays, and line segments by the way they meet or cross each other. Words Parallel lines are always the same distance apart. They do not meet. Words Lines that meet or cross each other are called intersecting lines. Hope this helps.
