We know the area of a small square is 24 in².

Assuming the small rectangles are all equal in area, the total area of the window is equal to 6 x 24 = 144 in².

Now looking at the big window, the total area = width x length so:
144 = 18 x width
width = 144 ÷ 18 = 8 in

The volume of sphere Q is 150% more than the volume of sphere P the volume of sphere R is 50% more than the volume of sphere Q F

vazorg [7]

Answer:

1/3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

Volume of sphere P = x

Volume Sphere Q = x + 150/100x

Volume of Q = x + 1.5x = 2.5x

Volume of R is 50% more than Q

Volume of R = (100 + 50)% of 2.5x

Volume of R = 150/100 * 2.5x

Volume of R = 1.5 * 2.5x = 3.75x

Volume of sphere P as a fraction of sphere R ;

Volume of P / volume of R

x / 3.75x

= 1/3.75

The axis of symmetry for the function f(x) = –2x2 + 4x + 1 is the line x = 1. Where is the vertex of the function located?

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

(1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the h coordinate of the vertex as 1, but in order to find the k coordinate, you have to complete the square on the parabola. The first few steps are as follows. Set the parabola equal to 0 so you can solve for the vertex. Separate the x terms from the constant by moving the constant to the other side of the equals sign. The coefficient HAS to be a +1 (ours is a -2 so we have to factor it out). Let's start there. The first 2 steps result in this polynomial:

$-2x^2+4x=-1$ . Now we factor out the -2:

$-2(x^2-2x)=-1$ . Now we complete the square. This process is to take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is 2x. Half of 2 is 1, and 1 squared is 1. We add 1 into the set of parenthesis. But we actually added into the parenthesis is +1(-2). The -2 out front is a multiplier and we cannot ignore it. Adding in to both sides looks like this:

$-2(x^2-2x+1)=-1-2$ . Simplifying gives us this:

$-2(x^2-2x+1)=-3$

On the left we have created a perfect square binomial which reflects the h coordinate of the vertex. Stating this binomial and moving the -3 over by addition and setting the polynomial equal to y:

$-2(x-1)^2+3=y$
