The cross section of the satellite dish is an illustration of a quadratic function
The quadratic function that models the cross-section is y = 1/6(x^2 - 9)
<h3>How to determie the equation of the cross-section?</h3>
The given parameters are:
Width = 6 feet
Depth = 1.5 feet
Express the width the sum of two equal numbers
Width = 3 + 3
The above means that, the equation of the cross section passes through the x-axis at:
x = -3 and 3
So, we have:
y = a(x - 3) * (x + 3)
Express as the difference of two squares
y = a(x^2 - 9)
The depth is 1.5.
This is represented as: (x,y) =(0,-1.5)
So, we have:
-1.5 = a(0^2 - 9)
Evaluate the exponent
-1.5 = -9a
Divide both sides by -9
a = 1/6
Substitute 1/6 for a in y = a(x^2 - 9)
y = 1/6(x^2 - 9)
Hence, the quadratic function that models the cross-section is y = 1/6(x^2 - 9)

I'm not sure if that is supposed to be 7 or -7
If it's -7:
1<2n-5<-7
+5 +5 +5 Add 5 to all parts of the inequality get 2n by itself
6<2n<-2
/2 /2 /2 Divide all parts by 2 to isolate the variable

Red bricks : Grey bricks
5 : 2
Total parts = 5 + 2 = 7
7 parts = 224
-----------------------
Find 1 part:
-----------------------
1 part = 234 ÷ 7
1 part = 32
-----------------------
Find 5 parts:
-----------------------
5 parts = 32 x 5
5 parts = 160
----------------------------------------------
Answer: 160 Red bricks
