1. It is a quadratic equation.
Explanation:
A quadratic equation is any equation that can be rearranged in standard form (ax^2 + bx + c). That equation can be rewritten as -x^2 + 1, where a is -1, b is 0, and c is 1.
2. 4x^2, 3x, and 5.
Explanation:
A quadratic term is ax^2 in the formula ax^2 + bx + c. A linear term is bx in the formula, and a constant is c in the formula.
The top and bottom have area (2.4 ft)² = 5.76 ft².
The sides have area (4*2.4 ft)*(3.4 ft) = 32.64 ft².
The the total area is (2*5.76 +32.64) ft² = 44.16 ft². All but the bottom area is then 44.16 ft² -5.76 ft² = 38.40 ft².
The ratio (all but bottom area)/(total area) is then
38.40/44.16 ≈ 87.0%
Where are the figures, can you upload a Pic of the figures so that I can answer your question
