Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Given

y = x² - 6x + 3

To complete the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 6x

y = x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 - 9 + 3

= (x - 3)² - 6 ← in vertex form

• If a > 0 then vertex is a minimum

• If a < 0 then vertex is a maximum

Here a = 1 > 0, thus

(3, - 6 ) is a minimum

Answer:

Height: 300

Width: 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is look at where the lines start and end on the graph for instance the top is at 0 and the very bottom line is at 300 so that means its 300 feet tall.

The distance between two cities is 220km. There are approximately 8km in 5 miles. What is the distance in miles?

Free_Kalibri [48]

So i did 220 ÷ 8 and got 27.5 then multiplied by 5 to find how many miles and its 137.5

In any cyclic quadrilateral, angles opposite one another are supplementary, meaning

$m\angle K+m\angle I=m\angle L+m\angle J=180^\circ$

and given that $\boxed{m\angle K=64^\circ}$ , we have $\boxed{m\angle I=116^\circ}$ .

By the inscribed angle theorem,

$m\angle JLK=\dfrac12m\widehat{KJ}$

$m\angle ILJ=\dfrac12m\widehat{IJ}$

and since

$m\angle L=m\angle JLK+m\angle ILJ$

we have

$m\angle L=\dfrac{97^\circ+59^\circ}2\implies\boxed{m\angle L=78^\circ}$

and it follows that

$m\angle J=180^\circ-m\angle L\implies\boxed{m\angle J=102^\circ}$

What conic section degenerates into a line?

andrew11 [14]

<h3>Answer: A) parabola</h3>

Some degenerate parabola cases form a single straight line, while other cases form one pair of parallel lines.

A degenerate hyperbola forms two lines that intersect at the vertex of the cone. We can rule out choice B.

A degenerate circle is a single point, so we can rule out choice C.

A degenerate ellipse is also a single point. Any circle is an ellipse (but not the other way around). We can rule out choice D.
