A-2b=-10
add 2b on both sides
a=2b-10
add 10 to both sides
a+10=2b
divide both sides by 2
a/2+10/2=a/2+5=b
b=5+a/2

What are the features of the parabola modeled by the equation f(x) = x2 - 114x ?

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Answers are in bold type

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = $x^{2} -144x$

The parabola opens up, so has a minimum at the vertex.

Let (h, k) be the vertex

h = -b/2a = - (-144)/2(1) = 57

k = 57^2 - 144(57) = 3249 - 6498 = -3249

Therefore, the vertex is (57, -3249)

The minimum value is -3249

The domain is the set of real numbers.

The range = {y | y ≥ -3249}

The function decreases when -∞ < x < 57 and increases when 57 > x > ∞

The x - intercepts: $x^{2} -144x$ = 0

x(x - 114x) = 0

x = 0 or x = 114

x-intercepts are (0, 0) and (0, 114)

When x = 0, then we get the y-intercept. So, 0^2 - 114(0) = 0

y-intercept is (0, 0)

A filter filled with liquid is in the shape of a vertex-down cone with a height of 9 inches and a diameter of 6 inches at its op

Alina [70]

Answer: Level of the liquid dropping at 28.28 inch/second when the liquid is 2 inches deep.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Height = 9 inches

Diameter = 6 inches

Radius = 3 inches

So, $\dfrac{r}{h}=\dfrac{3}{9}=\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\r=\dfrac{1}{3}h$

Volume of cone is given by

$V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\\\V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi \dfrac{1}{9}h^2\times h\\\\V=\dfrac{1}{27}\pi h^3$

By differentiating with respect to time t, we get that

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{27}\pi \times 3\times h^2\dfrac{dh}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{9}\pi h^2\dfrac{dh}{dt}$

Now, the liquid drips out the bottom of the filter at the constant rate of 4 cubic inches per second, ie $\dfrac{dv}{dt}=-4\ in^3$

and h = 2 inches deep.

$-4=\dfrac{1}{9}\times \pi\times (2)^2\dfrac{dh}{dt}\\\\-9\pi =\dfrac{dh}{dt}\\\\-28.28=\dfrac{dh}{dt}$

Hence, level of the liquid dropping at 28.28 inch/second when the liquid is 2 inches deep.

Tom wants to place a photograph that is 8.5 inches wide on his science fair poster. His poster board is 21.25 inches wide. How f

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

6 3/8 inches (6.375 inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplicity we'll assume that both the photo and the poster board are square. To determine the width of the border, subtract 8.5 inches from the poster board width 21.25 inches, obtaining 12.75 inches, and then divide that 12.75 inches by 2: 6.375 inches (6 3/8 inches).

Set the photo 6 3/8 inches from each edge of the poster board.
