Your parents decide they would like to install a rectangular swimming pool in the backyard. There is a 15-foot by 20-foot rectan

gular area available. Your parents request a 3-foot edge around each side of the pool. Draw a diagram of this situation in a coordinate plane. What is the perimeter and area of the largest swimming pool that will fit?

Answer:

  • perimeter: 46 ft
  • area: 126 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the 3 ft edge is on both sides of the pool, each dimension of the pool is 6 ft shorter than the corresponding dimension of the space. The pool will be 15 ft -6 ft = 9 ft in one direction and 20 ft -6 ft = 14 ft in the other direction.

The perimeter of the pool is the sum of its side lengths:

  P = 9 ft + 14 ft + 9 ft + 14 ft = 2(9 ft +14 ft) = 2(23 ft)

  P = 46 ft

__

The area of the pool is the product of its length and width:

  A = (14 ft)(9 ft) = 126 ft²

The perimeter and area are 46 ft and 126 ft², respectively.

Answer:

any coordinate outside the parabola is a reasonable answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

test the solution (0, 0) and if if that number is greater than 0 then the rest of the points outside on the inside are.

x = 0

y = 0

(0)^2 - 2(0) - 3 = -3

-3 is less than 0 so (0, 0) is not a possibility so any coordinate outside the parabola is a reasonable answer.

Write the standard form of the equation of the parabola with the given focus or directrix and
horsena [70]

Answer:

x = 1/20 y^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a rightward opening  (sideways ) parabola

Directrix = x = -5

Distance formula form point x,y  to directrix and focus are equal:  

(x - -5)^2 = (x-5)^2 + y^2

x^2 + 10x + 25 = x^2 - 10x  + 25 + y^2

20x = y^2

x = 1/20 y^2
