Answer:
37.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Answer:</u>
The given statement is False statement
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given that Jaime has blown out a number of candles equal to his age on each of his birthday till now and he is 9 years old now so the total number of candles blown by him all his life is given by the
arithmetic series
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 and
not the arithmetic series
0 + 1 + 2 + 3+ 4+ 5+ 6+ 7+ 9 as given
so the given statement is false.
The answer is 3/5, or 60%
11 (comedies) + 19 (tragedies) = 30
30/50 = 3/5, or 60%
OK, so the graph is a parabola, with points x=0,y=0; x=6,y=-9; and x=12,y=0
Because the roots of the equation are 0 and 12, we know the formula is therefore of the form
y = ax(x - 12), for some a
So put in x = 6
-9 = 6a(-6)
9 = 36a
a = 1/4
So the parabola has a curve y = x(x-12) / 4, which can also be written y = 0.25x² - 3x
The gradient of this is dy/dx = 0.5x - 3
The key property of a parabolic dish is that it focuses radio waves travelling parallel to the y axis to a single point. So we should arrive at the same focal point no matter what point we chose to look at. So we can pick any point we like - e.g. the point x = 4, y = -8
Gradient of the parabolic mirror at x = 4 is -1
So the gradient of the normal to the mirror at x = 4 is therefore 1.
Radio waves initially travelling vertically downwards are reflected about the normal - which has a gradient of 1, so they're reflected so that they are travelling horizontally. So they arrive parallel to the y axis, and leave parallel to the x axis.
So the focal point is at y = -8, i.e. 1 metre above the back of the dish.
