Vertex form of a parabola
<span>y = a (x - h)^2 + k </span>
<span>where (h, k) is the vertex </span>
Substituting the values of h and k.
we get,
<span>y = a(x + 4)^2 + 2 </span>
<span>substituting in the point (0, -30) for x and y
</span><span>-30 = a (0 + 4)^2 + 2
</span>solve for a,
<span>-30 = 16 a + 2 </span>
<span>-32 = 16 a </span>
<span>-2 = a </span>
<span>y = -2(x + 4)^2 + 2 </span>
<span>Put y = 0 </span>
<span>-2 x^2 - 16 x - 30 = 0 </span>
<span>-2(x^2 + 8 x + 15) = 0 </span>
<span>x^2 + 8 x + 15 = 0 </span>
<span>(x + 3)(x + 5) = 0 </span>
<span>x = -3
x = -5</span>
To solve problem 1 what you need to do is figure out how many miles the girls have walked so far and then subtract that from the total distance they must complete.
3/4-(3/10+1/4)
Step 1:Change the denominators so that way they are all the same
3/4=15/20
3/10=6/20 15/20-(6/20+5/20)
1/4=5/20
Step 2: Begin solving the problem
6/20+5/20=11/20
15/20-11/20=4/20
Step 3: Simplify your answer
4/20=1/5
Step 4 (is optional): Write your answer in a complete statement
The three girls walk 1/5mile together to school
Answer: A
I hope this is correct and if not I apologize for giving false information.
Answer:
58.1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of each support rod can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The geometry can be modeled by a right triangle, such that the distance from centre is one leg and half the length of the rod is the other leg of a triangle with hypotenuse equal to the radius of the grill.
__
<h3>Pythagorean theorem</h3>
The theorem tells us that the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle is the square of the hypotenuse. For legs a, b and hypotenuse c, this is ...
c² = a² +b²
<h3>application</h3>
For the geometry of the grill, we can define a=7.5 and c=30. Then b will be half the length of the support rod.
30² = 7.5 +b²
b² = 900 -56.25 = 843.75
b = √843.75 ≈ 29.0473
The length of each support rod is twice this value, so ...
rod length = 2b = 2(29.0473) = 58.0947
Each support rod is about 58.1 cm long.
The answer is letter c, also just a tip, all i had to do was ask siri :)
33% depending on if your numbers is the same as mine
