Now, assuming is a vertical parabola, so the squared variable is the "x", let's do some checking.

\bf \qquad \textit{parabola vertex form}\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
\boxed{y=a(x-{{ h}})^2+{{ k}}}\\\\
x=a(y-{{ k}})^2+{{ h}}
\end{array} \qquad\qquad  vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
vertex
\begin{cases}
h=3\\
k=5
\end{cases}\implies y=a(x-3)^2+5
\\\\\\
\textit{we also know that }
\begin{cases}
y=6\\
x=-1
\end{cases}\implies 6=a(-1-3)^2+5
\\\\\\
1=a(-4)^2\implies 1=16a\implies \cfrac{1}{16}=a

A drink dispenser fills cups at a rate of 2 ounces per second. Adrain has 64 ounce cup that already contains 18 ounces of water.
diamong [38]

Answer:

23 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find out how many ounces left are needed to fill the water. Subtract the total, 64, by the already filled, 18. This should get you the answer of 46.

Since the dispenser fills 2 ounces per second, you need to divide the number 46 by 2 in order to find the amount of time in seconds it would take to fill the rest of the cup.

Therefore, your answer is 23 seconds.

Hope this helps!

Explain the steps for dividing decimals. Write three or four sentences.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Move the decimal point in the divisor and dividend.

Turn the divisor (the number you’re dividing by) into a whole number by moving the decimal point all the way to the right. At the same time, move the decimal point in the dividend (the number you’re dividing) the same number of places to the right.

Place a decimal point in the quotient (the answer) directly above where the decimal point now appears in the dividend.

Divide as usual, being careful to line up the quotient properly so that the decimal point falls into place.

Line up each digit in the quotient just over the last digit in the dividend used in that cycle.

On a car trip , the number of miles driven , m , is proportional to the number of gallons of gas used , g , as shown in the tabl
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

  m = 32g

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion between m and g can be written ...

  m = kg

where k is the constant of proportionality.

__

We can find its value by dividing by g:

  k = m/g

Using any pair of corresponding values from the table, we find ...

  k = 64/2 = 32

The relationship between m and g can be expressed by the equation ...

  m = 32g
