The slope = 17/8, while as the y - intercept = -5. The graph shown below will help give you a better understanding of what I'm saying.
The value of D should be 4
I assume that the parabola in this particular problem is one whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y axis. The formula we're going to use in this case is (x-h)2=4p(y-k). We know variables h and k from the vertex (1,20) but p is not given. However, we can solve for p by substituting values x and y in the formula with the y-intercept:
(0-1)^2=4p(16-20)
Solving for p, p=-1/16.
Going back to the formula, we can finally solve for the x-intercepts. Simply fill in variables p, h and k then set y to zero:
(x-1)^2=4(-1/16)(0-20)
(x-1)^2=5
x-1=(+-)sqrt(5)
x=(+-)sqrt(5)+1
Here, we have two values of x
x=sqrt(5)+1 and
x=-sqrt(5)+1
thus, the answers are: (sqrt(5)+1,0) and (-sqrt(5)+1,0).
Answer:
<h2>
He is going to pay 40*900= $36000 for the reservation</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
We are told that they need at least 50 total rooms.
Joe has paid for 16 rooms since Joe can only reserve rooms in block, and a block has 8 rooms, then Joe has paid for 2 blocks.
There is a deficit of 50-16= 34rooms
Required
The Number of blocks Joe need to reserve in addition is 34/8
=4.25
The blocks can not be in decimal, so we need to approximate, which is 5 blocks
Therefore Joe is going to reserve 5*8= 40 rooms
<u>He is going to pay 40*900= $36000 for the reservation</u>
