Answer:
a = 138
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that from the figure, we can see that ∠MOQ and ∠PON are vertical angles, which means that by definition, they're congruent in measure.
∠MOQ = ∠MOR + ∠ROQ = 90 + 48 = 138°
So, this means that ∠PON is also equal to 138, which means a = 138.
Thus, the answer is a = 138.

4 (of whatever your mathematical unit is)
you times 4500 by 0.0575 and then divide 1035 by that number and then you get 4.
Answer:
y = 1/12 (x − 5)²
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this graphically without doing calculations.
The y component of the focus is y = 3. Since this is above the directrix, we know this is an upward facing parabola, so it must have a positive coefficient. That narrows the possible answers to A and C.
The x component of the focus is x = 5. Since this is above the vertex, we know the x component of the vertex is also x = 5.
So the answer is A. y = 1/12 (x−5)².
But let's say this wasn't a multiple choice question and we needed to do calculations. The equation of a parabola is:
y = 1/(4p) (x − h)² + k
where (h, k) is the vertex and p is the distance from the vertex to the focus.
The vertex is halfway between the focus and the directrix. So p is half the difference of the y components:
p = (3 − (-3)) / 2
p = 3
k, the y component of the vertex, is the average:
k = (3 + (-3)) / 2
k = 0
And h, the x component of the vertex, is the same as the focus:
h = 5
So:
y = 1/(4×3) (x − 5)² + 0
y = 1/12 (x − 5)²
Since 36 = 36^1 I would say the exponent is 1
If you're looking for equivalents to 3^x, choices
... D. (15^x)/(5^x)
... E. (15/5)^x
... F. 3×3^(x-1)
are the only ones that qualify.
