Choose the correct conic section to match the equation. y 2 = 36x I need help

2 answers:

7 0

Remark
I take it that you mean y^2 = 36x. The first thing you should try and do is get a graph of the given equation. I've done that for you. Notice a few characteristics.

1. The graph opens left. Usually most graphs like this one open up or down.
2. The graph is open ended on the right.
3. There is only one open end.
4. The graph is continuous, but it is not a function. (that's a fact -- but not needed in this question).

When you get a graph looking like this, you have either a graph called a quadratic or a parabola. Either (but not both) could be your answer. If you have choices list them in a comment.

HELP ASAP INCLUDE WORK I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST

Troyanec [42]

Step 1 is to find how far apart W and Y are:
-7 - (-31) = 24

Now find 1/8 of that distance: 1/8 • 24 = 3

Now move 3 units from -31 towards -7: -31 + 3 = -28

PLEASE HELP ILL MARK BRAINLIEST !!!

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a) the common difference is 20

b) $x_8=115 , x_{12}=195$

c) the common difference is -13

d) $a_{12}=52, a_{15}=13$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) what is the common difference of the sequence xn

Looking at the table, we get x_3=16, x_4=36 and x_5= 56

Deterring the common difference by subtracting x_4 from x_3 we get

36-16 =20

So, the common difference is 20

b) what is x_8? what is x_12

The formula used is: $x_n=x_1+(n-1)d$

We know common difference d= 20, we need to find $x_1$

Using $x_3=16$ we can find $x_1$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_3=x_1+(3-1)d\\15=x_1+2(20)\\15=x_1+40\\x_1=15-40\\x_1=-25$

So, We have $x_1 = -25$

Now finding $x_8$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_8=x_1+(8-1)d\\x_8=-25+7(20)\\x_8=-25+140\\x_8=115$

So, $\mathbf{x_8=115}$

Now finding $x_{12}$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_{12}=x_1+(12-1)d\\x_{12}=-25+11(20)\\x_{12}=-25+220\\x_{12}=195$

So, $\mathbf{x_{12}=195}$

c) what is the common difference of the sequence $a_m$

Looking at the table, we get a_7=104, a_8=91 and a_9= 78

Deterring the common difference by subtracting a_7 from a_8 we get

91-104 =-13

So, the common difference is -13

d) what is a_12? what is a_15?

The formula used is: $a_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

We know common difference d= -13, we need to find $a_1$

Using $a_7=104$ we can find $x_1$

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_7=a_1+(7-1)d\\104=a_1+7(-13)\\104=a_1-91\\a_1=104+91\\a_1=195$

So, We have $a_1 = 195$

Now finding $a_{12}$ , put n=12

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{12}=a_1+(12-1)d\\a_{12}=195+11(-13)\\a_{12}=195-143\\a_{12}=52$

So, $\mathbf{a_{12}=52}$

Now finding $a_{15}$ , put n=15

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{15}=a_1+(15-1)d\\a_{15}=195+14(-13)\\a_{15}=195-182\\a_{15}=13$

So, $\mathbf{a_{15}=13}$

Solve the inequality:<br><br> 3/10 is greater than or equal to k - 3/5

Ostrovityanka [42]

To solve the inequality 3/10 is greater than or equal to k - 3/5, we must first set it up. Since 3/10 is greater than or equal to something, we will have a greater than or equal to symbol, with the 'mouth' pointing towards 3/10. Setting this up we get:

3/10 ≥ k - 3/5

Now we want to get k by itself on one side. We can do this by adding 3/5 to each side.

3/10 + 3/5 ≥ k

Simplify

9/10 ≥ k

If DA = 6 and MD = 4, what is the length of DK?

Leto [7]

Answer:

DK = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle AMD,

h² = p² + b²

or, h² = 6² + 4²

or, h²= 36 + 16

so, h² = 52

so, AM² = 52

Take x as reference angle,

cos²x = 16/52

Now,

In triangle, AMK,

Taking x as reference angle,

cos²x = b²/h²

cos²x = AM²/MK²

or, cos²x = 52/MK²

Now,

cos²x = 16/52 = 52/MK²

or,

16/52 = 52/MK²

or, 16MK² = 2704

or, MK² = 2704/16

or, MK² = 169

so, MK = 13

Now,

DK = MK - MD

or, DK = 13 - 4

so, DK = 9
