we know that

The parabola shown on the graph represent a vertical parabola open upward with vertex at the origin

so

the equation of the parabola is equal to

x^{2}=4ay ------> equation A

the equation of the directrix is equal to

y=-a

In this problem we have

the equation of the directrix is equal to

y=-1.5

so

the value of a is equal to

a=1.5

substitute the value of a in the equation A

x^{2}=4(1.5)y

x^{2}=6y

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

x^{2} =6y

Someone help?!.........

Answer: y = -2x + 16

Explanation:

Use point slope form:

(y1 - y) = m(x1 - x)

y1 = 6 and x1 = 5 and m = -2

6 - y = -2(5 - x)
6 - y = -10 + 2x
-y = 2x - 10 - 6
-y = 2x - 16
y = -2x + 16

there are two sizes of red and blue marbles in a box. Of the big marbles in the box, 45 are red and 3/4 are blue. The fraction o
nikklg [1K]
Big marbles = 45red 3/4 blue
Small marbles = 2/5 red    3/5 blue    24 more small blue mabrles than red marbles
What percentage of the marbles are big marbles

First of all lets working out the missing values: 
Big Marbles, 45 red, 3/4 blue. If 45 red is 1/4, then 135 (45*3) is 3/4.
Big Marbles, 45 red, 135 blue = 180 in total

For the small marbles, we do some logical thinking:
If red is 2/5, and blue is 3/5. And blue has 24 more than red.
That means 24 = 1/5
So in total there are 120 small marbles (24*5)
There are 180 big marbles 
We add these together, 120 + 180 = 300 marbles
180 / 300 = 0.6 = 60%
^ Divide the big marbles by the number of total marbles

60% of the marbles are big marbles

The circumference and the radius are related to one another. The constant relating them is pi which is a fixed number of 3.14 The formula for the circumference is C = 2*pi * r

Givens

pi = 3.14

r = 58 cm

Circumference = ?

Formula

C = 2*pi * r

C = 2 * 3.14 * 58

C = 364.24
