Answer:

a. 8.5 in.

b. 34 in

c. x = 1/39 x^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a.

x = 1/34 y^2

y^2 = 34x

Comparing with y^2 = 4px where p is the focus:

4p = 34

p = 8.5 in.

Part b.

The diameter = 4p = 34 in.

Part c.

Diameter = 4p = 34 + 5 = 39 in

The new equation is x = 1/39 x^2.

Which of the following equations best models the data plotted below?
ICE Princess25 [194]
The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope. 
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4 
B. y = 4x + 9 
C. y = x + 18 
D. y = 3x + 22
 
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept? 
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10. 
That leaves us with A and B.

Which has the closest approximation of the slope? 
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15. 
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.

Therefore, the answer is 
B) y= 4x + 9

HELP ME QUICK PLEASEE!!
Lena [83]

Answer:

  A) is a function

  B) f(x) is greater

  C) x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Yes, the relation is a function.

A function has a unique input value for each output value. There are no repeated x-values, so this relation is a function.

__

B) The table says y=6 for x=6.

  f(6) = 2(6)+16 = 28

f(x) has a greater value for x=6.

__

C) Substituting the given information, we have ...

  40 = 2x +16

  24 = 2x

  12 = x

The value of x is 12 when f(x) is 40.

Answer:

The value of 2008 is 112% of the Value of 2007.

But we need 100% of the year of 2007.

So 350000/112=3125=>1%

3125*100=312500=>100%

The answer is $312500
