Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there !

 if f(x) = 2x + 7 and f(x) = -1 =>

Find the equation of a parabola with a vertical axis and its vertex at the origin and passing through the point (-2, 3)
vredina [299]

a vertical axis, I assume it means a vertical axis of symmetry, thus it'd be a vertical parabola, like the one in the picture below.

\bf ~~~~~~\textit{parabola vertex form} \\\\ \begin{array}{llll} y=a(x- h)^2+ k\qquad \qquad \leftarrow vertical\\\\ x=a(y- k)^2+ h \end{array} \qquad\qquad vertex~~(\stackrel{}{ h},\stackrel{}{ k}) \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \begin{cases} h=0\\ k=0 \end{cases}\implies y=a(x-0)^2+0 \\\\\\ \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} x=-2\\ y=3 \end{cases}\implies 3=a(-2-0)^2+0\implies 3=4a \\\\\\ \cfrac{3}{4}=a~\hspace{10em}y=\cfrac{3}{4}(x-0)^2+0\implies \boxed{y=\cfrac{3}{4}x^2}

The area of a circle is 9π m². What is the circumference, in meters? Express answer in terms of π
ad-work [718]

Answer:

20.25 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is given by

C = 2 * pi *r

9 pi = 2 * pi *r

Divide each side by 2pi

9pi / 2 pi = 2 pi r / 2 pi

4.5 = r

Now we can find area

A = pi r^2

= pi ( 4.5)^2

20.25 pi
