What is y=-x^2-14x-59 in vertex form

The equation of a parabola given y=-x^2-14x-59

We have to write it in vertex form.

The vertex form of a parabola is y=a(x-h)^2+k

So to write it in vertex form we have to make the right side as a perfect square by using completing the square method.

y= -x^2-14x-59

y=-(x^2+14x+59)

Here 14x given. By dividing 14 by 2 we will get 7. So we have to add and subtract (7)^2 to the right side.

y= -[x^2+14x+(7)^2-(7)^2+59]

y=-[x^2+14x+(7)^2-49+59]

We know that, a^2+2ab+b^2 = (a+b)^2, so x^2+(2)(x)(7)+7^2 = (x+7)^2.

y= -[(x+7)^2-49+59]

y=-[(x+7)^2 +10]

y=-(x+7)^2-10

So we have got the required vertex form of the parabola.

Choose the correct simplification of the expression a2 ⋅ a3. a a6 a5 a−1
alina1380 [7]

Answer:  The correct option is (C) a^5.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to choose the correct simplification for the following expression :

P=a^2.a^3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We will be using the following property of exponents :

x^a.x^b=x^{a+b}.

So, the simplification of expression (i) is as follows :

P\\\\=a^2.a^3\\\\=a^{2+3}\\\\=a^5.

Thus, the correct simplification of the given expression is a^5.

Option (C) is CORRECT.

Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 6800.0 cubic centimeters per min at the same time that water is be
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

6.82 mt^3/min

Step-by-step explanation:

By congruence of triangles, the radius r of the cone base when its height is 1 meter satisfies the relation

r/1 = 2.5/6

(See picture attached)

So, r = 0.4166 meters when the water is 1 meter high.

The volume of a cone with radius of the base = R is given by

V=\frac{\pi R^2h}{3}

So, the volume of water when it is 1 meter high is

V=\frac{\pi* 0.(4166)^2}{3}=0.1817\;mt^3

One minute later, the height of the water is 1 meter + 30 centimeters = 1.30 mt

The radius now satisfies

r/1.3 = 2.5/6

and now the radius of the base is

r = 0.5416 mt

and the new volume of water is 0.3071\;mt^3

So, the water is raising at a speed of

0.3071-0.1871 = 0.12 mt^3/min

This speed equals the difference between the water being pumped and the water leaking,

So,  

<em>0.12 = Speed of water being pumped -6.8  </em>

and

Speed of water being pumped = 6.8+0.12 = 6.82 mt^3/min
