Answer:

F(2, 11/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression:

(x-2)² = 10(y - 3)

can be rewritten in the vertex form as follows:

(x-2)² = 10y - 30

(x-2)² + 30 = 10y

1/10(x-2)² + 3 = y

General vertex form is:

y = a(x-h)² + k

then, the vertex is locate at (h, k). In this case the vertes is (2, 3), and <em>a </em>= 1/10

The focus of a parabola is located ar F(h, k+p), where <em>p</em> = 1/(4a). Replacing into these equations:

p = 1/(4*1/10) = 5/2

F(2, 3+5/2) = F(2, 11/2)

Answer:

<em>The correct option is:  C. x=6\sqrt{3}, y=12</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles of the triangle are given as 60° and 60°

As the sum of all three angle in any triangle is always 180°, so the measure of the third angle will be: 180°-(60°+60°) = 180° - 120° = 60°

Now each angle of the triangle is 60°, it means the triangle is equilateral.

The base of the triangle is given as 12. So, the length of each side will be 12.

That means, the value of y=12

Now in the left right triangle.....

Sin(60)=\frac{x}{y} \\ \\ \frac{\sqrt{3}} {2}=\frac{x}{12} \\ \\ 2x=12\sqrt{3} \\ \\ x=6\sqrt{3}

So, the value of x = 6\sqrt{3}

Item 5 There are 20 balls in a bag. Ten of the balls are red, 4 are green, and the rest are yellow. Which ratio represents the n
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

3:5 <em>the colon is needed to represent the ratio</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

r = 10

g = 4

y = 30 - 14 = 6

y = 6

so ratio of total balls is 10:4:6

and ratio of y:r is

6:10

simply by dividing by 2
