Answer:

f(x)=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of the parabola with a focus of (3,1) and directrix y=5.

Considering the directrix, the quadratic graph must open downwards.


The equation of this parabola is given by the formula,

(x-h)^2=4p(y-k), where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola.


The axis of this parabola meets the directrix at (3,5).

Since the vertex is the midpoint of the focus and the point of intersection of the axis of the parabola and the directrix,


h=\frac{3+3}{2}=3 and k=\frac{5+1}{2}=3.


The equation of the parabola now becomes,


(x-3)^2=4p(y-3).


Also |p| is the distance between the vertex and the directrix.


|p|=2


This implies that p=-2\:or\:2.


Since the parabola turns downwards,


p=-2.



Our equation now becomes,


(x-3)^2=4(-2)(y-3).


(x-3)^2=-8(y-3).


We make y the subject to get,

y=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3).


This is the same as

f(x)=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3).

nordsb [41]

Answer:

28.26ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area of circle is:

A=3,14*r^2, where r =3 and 3,14 is pie number, so we have

A=3.14*9=28,26

There are 4 roads leading from Bluffton to​ Hardeeville, 6 roads leading from Hardeeville to​ Savannah, and 5 roads leading from
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

120 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Total number of roads leading from Bluffton to​ Hardeeville = 4

Total number of roads leading from Hardeeville to​ Savannah = 6

Total number of roads leading from Savannah to Macon = 5

We need to find the total number of ways to get from Bluffton to​ Macon.

Total number of ways to get from Bluffton to​ Macon = 4\times 6\times 5= 120

Therefore, there are 120 required number of ways to get from Bluffton to​ Macon.

Answer:

  64r -48r -144

Step-by-step explanation:

The January cost expression is ...

  62p -48p -144 -432 = profit

The cost is identified as having 3 components, so the profit will have 4 components:

  (selling price)×p - ((cost per unit)×p +(fixed monthly cost)) -(first month startup cost) = profit

Comparing this to the given equation, we identify the components as ...

  selling price = 62

  cost per unit = 48

  fixed monthly cost = 144

  first month startup cost = 432

We note that 432 = 3×144, so is consistent with the description of startup costs.

Increasing the selling price by $2 will raise it from 62 to 64. In February, the initial month startup cost disappears, so the profit equation becomes ...

  (selling price)×r - ((cost per unit)×r +(fixed monthly cost)) = profit

  64r -48r -144 = profit
