Answer with explanation:

→→Information given about Parabola

Vertex of the Parabola = (0,0)

Focus is located on the positive x- axis.

Definition of Parabola: A parabola is locus of all the points such that distance from a fixed point known as focus to distance from a fixed line called, Directrix  is always constant.

Let focus of the parabola be (k,0), where , k>0.

Distance between vertex (0,0) and focus(k,0) = Distance between vertex (0,0) and point on negative x-axis (-k,0).

Directrix will pass through point (-k,0).

So, equation of Directrix will be, x= -k

Directrix will pass through

Option B: The Negative part of the x -axis.

A hot air balloon descends 15 feet each minute after having reached an altitude of 362 feet above the ground. What is the altitu
salantis [7]

Answer:

182 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that describes the motion of the hot air ballon is:

h(t) = h_0 - vt

where:

h_0 is the initial altitude

v is the rate of descend of the balloon

t is the time

The balloon starts from a height of

h_0 = 362 ft

and has a rate of descend of

v=15 ft/min

Therefore, after time

t = 12 min

Its altitude will be

h(12)=362 - (15)(12)=182 ft

If you have 24 square pieces of wood, describe all the different ways you could make a rectangle by placing them side by side.
Vilka [71]
Think of all pairs of numbers that multiply to give 24

1 × 24
2 × 12
3 × 8
4 × 6

We can have four different rectangles by placing the square side by side

Which of the following could represent the scale factor of the larger figure to the smaller figure?
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

3:2 and 21:14

Step-by-step explanation:

The same side on the larger and smaller cylinders is 30 and 20 respectively or 18 to 12

Simplify:

30:20 => 3:2

18:12 => 3:2

Therefore, the answer is 3:2

However, in addition you can multiply 3 by 7 to get 21 and 2 by 7 to get 14, so 21:14 also works

What is the equation of the function in vertex form? Substitute numerical values for a,h and k,
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

f(x)= -2(x-8)²+6

Step-by-step explanation:

First graph the points

you will get a parabola that has a vertex in (8,6) wich means h= 8 and k=6

so the equation is

  • f(x) = a(x-8)²+6

to get a we will replace by the coordinates of a point for example (6,-2)

  • -2 = a(6-8)²+6
  • -2 = a*4+6
  • -2-6 = 4a
  • -8 = 4a
  • a = -2

a is negative wich makes sense since the parabola opens down

  • f(x) = -2(x-8)²+6
