The vertex form of a quadratic function: y=a(x-h)^2+k.
If a>0, then the parabola opens upwards and the vertex is the minimum of the function.
If a<0, then the parabola opens downwards and the vertex is the maximum of the function.

f(x)=-(x+4)^2+2 \\ \Downarrow \\&#10;a=-1
a<0, so the vertex is the maximum of the function.

g(x)=(x-2)^2-2 \\ \Downarrow \\ a=1
a>0, so the vertex is the minimum of the function.

What is the angle, in degrees, if the Area is 180 square miles and the radius is 42,240 feet?
Savatey [412]

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a circle (all 360°) is

pi×r²

with r being the radius.

the area of a circle segment is just the corresponding fraction of the whole circle.

so the area of a segment of x degrees is

pi×r² × x/360

in our case we know

pi×42240² × x/360 = 180 mi²

we also know that there are 5280 ft in 1 mile.

so, the radius is actually

42240 / 5280 = 8 miles

and therefore our equation resulting in mi² has to use miles and not ft and has to look that way :

pi×8² × x/360 = 180 mi²

pi×64 × x/360 = 180

pi×64 × x = 180×360

pi×x = 180×360/64 = 1012.5

x = 1012.5/pi = 322.2887598...°

so, the angle of the segment of a circle with the area of 180 mi² and the radius of 8 mi is 322.2887598...°

S+2t=6. 3s-2t=2<br> Using elimination
Ludmilka [50]
For the first one, I will solve for t.
s + 2t = 6, first we isolate the t variable,
2t = -s + 6, divide both sides by 2,
t = -s/2 + 3, < There's your answer for 1!

Here's the second one,
3s - 2t = 2, subtract 3s from both sides,
-2t = 2 - 3s, divide both sides by -2,
t = -1 + 3s/2 < There's your second answer!

Given the diagram below find the value of x if the area is 21 aquare meters
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

The answer is <u><em>7</em></u>!

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-4) (x) = 21, x^2 - 4x = 21, x^2 - 4x - 21 = 0, (x - 7) (x + 3) = 0, x = 7 and -3; x can't be negative so the answer is 7!

x = 7 and x - 4 (other side) = 3
