Matteo is adjusting a satellite because he finds it is not focusing the incoming radio waves perfectly. The shape of his satelli

te can be modeled by y^2=6x where x and y are modeled in inches. He realizes that the static is a result of the feed antenna shifting slightly off the focus point. What is the focus point of the satellite? (–1.5, 0) (0, –1.5) (0, 1.5) (1.5, 0)

Answer: (1.5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The shape of his satellite can be modeled by y^2=6x where x and y are modeled in inches.

Now,the given equation y^2=6x is a equation of parabola.

Here, coefficient of x is positive, hence the parabola opens rightwards.

On comparing this equation with standard equation x^2=4mx, we get

4m=6\\\Rightarrow\ m=\frac{6}{4}=1.5

In standard equation, coordinates of focus=(m,0)

Thus for given equation coordinates of focus=(1.5,0)

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

(b) ln(33/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

\int\limits_{5}^{33}  \frac{1}{x} \, dx = \ln(x)  \Big|\limits_{5}^{33} = \ln(33) - \ln(5) \\\\= ln(33/5)

Remember that  in general

\ln(a) - \ln(b) = \ln(a/b)
