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)

Julia can finish a 20-mile bike ride in 1.2 hours. Katie can finish the same bike ride in 1.6 hours. How much faster does Julia
Nimfa-mama [501]

We know that,speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Julia can finish a 20-mile bike ride in 1.2 hours.

The distance Julia travels is 20 miles and the time she takes is 1.2 hours.

So, Julia's speed = \frac{20}{1.2} = 16.67 mph


Katie can finish the same bike ride in 1.6 hours.

The distance Katie travels is 20 miles and the time she takes is 1.6 hours.

So, Katie's speed = \frac{20}{1.6} = 12.5 mph


Now, to find how much faster Julia rides than Katie we subtract Katie's speed from Julia's speed.

So, 16.67 mph - 12.5 mph = 4.17 mph = 4.2 mph (approximately)

Thus, Julia rides 4.2 mph faster than Katie.

What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to -1 +3y=9 and passes through the point (-3, 2)?​
kati45 [8]

Answer:

y-2 = 3/10(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

3y = 10

y = 10/3

looking for perpendicular so slope = 3/10

using the given point

y-2 = 3/10(x+3)
