Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabolas equation is

(y - k)^2 = 4p(x - h)

Where h,k is the vertex

Substituting the vertex ad (2,-4)

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

(y +4)^2 = 4p(x - 2)

We need to find p from the other point they give us (-3,-3)

(-3 +4)^2 = 4p(-3 - 2)

1^2 = 4p (-5)

1 = -20p

Divide by -20

1/-20 = -20p/-20

-1/20 = p

Substituting back into the equation

(y +4)^2 = 4(-1/20)(x - 2)

Simplifying

(y +4)^2 = (-1/5)(x - 2)

FOILing

y^2 +8y +16 = -1/5x +2/5

Multiply by 5

5y^2 +40y +80 = -x +2

Subtract 2

5y^2 +40y +80-2 = -x +2-2

5y^2 +40y +78 = -x

Multiply by -1

-5y^2 -40y -78 = x

The coefficient of y^2  is -5

The population, P(t), of China, in billions, can be approximated by1 P(t)=1.394(1.006)t, where t is the number of years since th
vitfil [10]

Answer:

At the start of 2014, the population was growing at 8.34 million people per year.

At the start of 2015, the population was growing at 8.39 million people per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how fast was the population growing at the start of 2014 and at the start of 2015 we need to take the derivative of the function with respect to t.

The derivative shows by how much the function (the population, in this case) is changing when the variable you're deriving with respect to (time) increases one unit (one year).

We know that the population, P(t), of China, in billions, can be approximated by P(t)=1.394(1.006)^t

To find the derivative you need to:

\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\right)=\\\\\mathrm{Take\:the\:constant\:out}:\quad \left(a\cdot f\right)'=a\cdot f\:'\\\\1.394\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.006^t\right)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:derivative\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \frac{d}{dx}\left(a^x\right)=a^x\ln \left(a\right)\\\\1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\ln \left(1.006\right)\\\\\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\right)=(1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t

To find the population growing at the start of 2014 we say t = 0

P(t)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t\\P(0)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^0\\P(0)' = 0.00833901 \:Billion/year

To find the population growing at the start of 2015 we say t = 1

P(t)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t\\P(1)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^1\\P(1)' = 0.00838904 \:Billion/year

To convert billion to million you multiple by 1000

P(0)' = 0.00833901 \:Billion/year \cdot 1000 = 8.34 \:Million/year \\P(1)' = 0.00838904 \:Billion/year \cdot 1000 = 8.39 \:Million/year

(SAT Prep) Find the value of x.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

120 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a horizontal line that passes vertices of 2 angles 125 deg and 115 deg.

This line is perpendicular with 2 vectors.

Apply the property of vertical angles and the sum of 3 angles in a triangle.

x = 180 - (125 - 90) - (115 - 90) = 120 deg

Find the values of x and y.
DENIUS [597]
X = 20 degrees
Y = 30
This is acute triangle so all the sides and angles are the same. Subtract 16 from 46 and you receive 30 for y. For the corresponding angle, subtract 80 from 180. Then add 60 to that and subtract that from 180 for x.

Which is a better estimate for the weight of a dresser?<br> 45 grams or 45 kilograms
STatiana [176]
45 grams is about 1/4 cup of water or maybe 1/4 cup of flour or uncooked rice would be 45 grams. Anyway it's not much.

Unless the dresser is made of paper, 45 grams is not enough. 45 kg though large (that's roughly 100 pounds if that's what you think in), the dresser might be found in the apartment where Sherlock Holmes lives. (The dresser is a piece of victorian furniture) it is much closer to what a modern dresser would weigh.
