Here we are given the x intercepts at x=3 and x=9

So let us try to make quadratic equation for this using given information.

We have factors in the form (x-a)(x-b)

where a and b are x intercepts given to us.

So rewriting in factored form:

y=(x-3)(x-9)

Now let us simplify it:

y=x^{2}-12x+27

Let us find the vertex now,

For a quadratic equation of the form:

y=ax^{2}+bx+c

For x coordinate , we have the formula,

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

So using this formula for our equation,

x=\frac{-(-12)}{2(1)}

So x = 6

Answer: The x-coordinate of the parabola's vertex is 6.

A recipe for orange water says, "Mix 3 teaspoons yellow water with 1 teaspoon red water." For this recipe, we might say: "The ra
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The ratio of 2 batches of recipe is 6:2. Which is equivalent to 3:1 because if we multiply the ratio with same number it would give us equivalent ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

When mix 3 teaspoon of Yellow water with 1 teaspoon of red water, we get ratio as 3:1

If we use 2 batches of recipe, the ratio is multiplied twice.

That's ratio of yellow water to red water is 3*2 :1*2 , which gives 6:2

But, if we simplify the ratio, by dividing both by common factor, we would get 3:1

That's \frac{6}{2} :\frac{2}{2} simplified to 3:1

A machine starts dumping sand at the rate of 35 m3/min, forming a pile in the shape of a cone. The height of the pile is always
juin [17]
We are given with the following given
dV/dt = 35 m3/min
h = (3/2)D

What is asked is
dr/dt at t = 7 min

The volume of a cone is
V = (1/3)πr²h

From the given
h = (3/2)D
since D = 2r
h = 3r

Subsituting
V = πr³

At t = 7 min, the volume is
V = 35(7)
V = 245
and the radius is
245 = πr³
r = 4.27

Differentiating the volume
dV/dt = 3πr² dr/dt
From the given
dV/dt = 35

Subsituting
35 = 3πr² dr/dt
So,
dr/dt = 0.20 m/s
and
dh/dt = 0.60 m/s
