As the ratio of your shadow to your height is 2:1 assuming the flagpole would form a similar triangle the shadow is twice the height of the pole meaning the pole is 14 feet tall

Consider the quadratic function f(x) = –2x2 + 4x – 2. Find the y-intercept and the equation of the axis of symmetry.
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = - 2x² + 4x - 2

To find the y- intercept set x = 0

f(0) = 0 + 0 - 2 = - 2 ← y- intercept

The equation of the axis of symmetry is of the form x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinate the line goes through.

Given the equation in standard form

with a = - 2, b = 4 then the axis of symmetry is

x = - \frac{b}{2a} = - \frac{4}{-4} = 1

Equation of axis of symmetry is x = 1

List from smallest to largest 7/12 1/2 2/3 4/10 1/6​
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

So if you're having difficulty visualizing the differences, you can rewrite them so they all have the same denominator

7/12 = 35/60

1/2 = 30/60

2/3 = 40/60

4/10 = 24/60

1/6 = 10/60

So now it's easier to see how they compare to each other.

10/60, 24/60, 30/60, 35/60, 40/60

And then simplify them or just refer to what they were before

1/6, 4/10, 1/2, 7/12, 2/3

I hope this helps!
