Answer:
-0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The 'a' value can be found by looking at the difference between the y-value of a point 1 unit from the vertex, and the y-value of the vertex.
Here, that is a negative fraction of a unit. If we assume the value is a rational number that can be accurately determined from this graph, then we can find it by looking for a point where the graph crosses a grid intersection. It looks like such grid points are (-7, 0) and (3, 0). The vertex is apparently (-2, 4), so the vertex form of the equation is ...
y = a(x +2)^2 +4
Using the point (3, 0), we have ...
0 = a(3 +2)^2 +4 . . . . . fill in the values of x and y
-4 = 25a . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4; next, divide by 25
a = -4/25 = -0.16
Answer:
c. a: 4
b: 12
c: 9
4x² +12x+9=0
(2x+3)(2x+3)= 0
(2x+3)²=0 {square root both sides}
2x+3=0
2x=-3
x= -3/2
Answer:
surface area of the smaller figure ≈ 1474.64 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
The figures are similar base on the question . The surface area and the volume of the larger figure is given while only the figure of the smaller figure is given.
To find the surface area of the smaller figure we simply use the ratios. That is the scale factors.
Therefore, they are similar figure the scale factor can be represented as a:b.
The scale factor for volume is cubed.
volume of larger figure/volume of the small figure = a³/b³
4536/2625 = a³/b³
a/b = 16.5535451/13.7946209
Note that for two similar solid with scale factor a:b the surface area ratio is a²: b² (the scale factor is square)
16.55²/13.79² = 2124/x
273.9025/190.1641 = 2124/x
cross multiply
273.9025x = 403908.54840
x = 403908.54840/273.9025
x = 1474.6435261
x ≈ 1474.64 m²
