The ratio of the longer side of a rectangle to its shorter side is 4 to 3. If the shorter side of the rectangle is 21ft, what is
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

28 ft


Step-by-step explanation:

Let longer side of rectangle be L and the shorter side be  S, thus we can write the ratio:

\frac{L}{S}=\frac{4}{3}


<em>Now putting 21 into S, we solve for L:</em>

\frac{L}{21}=\frac{4}{3}\\3L=4*21\\3L=84\\L=\frac{84}{3}=28


Hence, length of longer side is 28 ft.

Find the equation of a parabola with a vertical axis and its vertex at the origin and passing through the point (-2, 3)
vredina [299]

a vertical axis, I assume it means a vertical axis of symmetry, thus it'd be a vertical parabola, like the one in the picture below.

\bf ~~~~~~\textit{parabola vertex form} \\\\ \begin{array}{llll} y=a(x- h)^2+ k\qquad \qquad \leftarrow vertical\\\\ x=a(y- k)^2+ h \end{array} \qquad\qquad vertex~~(\stackrel{}{ h},\stackrel{}{ k}) \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \begin{cases} h=0\\ k=0 \end{cases}\implies y=a(x-0)^2+0 \\\\\\ \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} x=-2\\ y=3 \end{cases}\implies 3=a(-2-0)^2+0\implies 3=4a \\\\\\ \cfrac{3}{4}=a~\hspace{10em}y=\cfrac{3}{4}(x-0)^2+0\implies \boxed{y=\cfrac{3}{4}x^2}
