Answer:

The equation of the second parabola is y=\frac{1}{16} \left(x - 2\right)^{2} + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the focus of the first parabola is (1,3) and the directrix is y = -5. We also know that the second parabola is a translation 1 unit right and 2 units up of the first parabola.

We can use the focus of the first parabola to find the focus of the second parabola (1+1, 3+2) = (2, 5) and the directrix of the second parabola is moved 2 units up. The equation of the directrix of the second parabola is y = -3.

To find the parabola equation we start by assuming a general point on the parabola (x,y).

Next, with the help of the distance formula we find that the distance between (x,y) and the focus.

\sqrt{(x-2)^2+(y-5)^2}

The distance between (x,y) and the directrix y = -3 is \sqrt{(y+3)^2}

On the parabola, these distances are equal:

\sqrt{\left(y+3\right)^2}=\sqrt{\left(x-2\right)^2+\left(y-5\right)^2}\\\left(\sqrt{\left(y+3\right)^2}\right)^2=\left(\sqrt{\left(x-2\right)^2+\left(y-5\right)^2}\right)^2\\\\\left(y+3\right)^2=\left(x-2\right)^2+\left(y-5\right)^2\\\\\left(y+3\right)^2= x^2-4x+4+y^2-10y+25\\\left(y+3\right)^2=x^2-4x+y^2+29-10y\\\\y^2+6y+9=x^2-4x+y^2+29-10y\\16y=x^2-4x+20\\y=\frac{x^2-4x+20}{16}\\\\y=\frac{1}{16} \left(x - 2\right)^{2} + 1

The equation of the second parabola is y=\frac{1}{16} \left(x - 2\right)^{2} + 1

PLEASE HELP! A) 6,135º C B) 6,681º C C) 502º C D) 47º C
Arada [10]

Answer: 47°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the velocity, all we have to do is plug in 358 for v and solve for t.

358=20\sqrt{273+t}                    [divide both sides by 20]

17.9=\sqrt{273+t}                        [square both sides to cancel out square root]

320.41=273+t                       [subtract both sides by 273]

t=47.41

Now that we know the temperature is 47.41°C, we know our answer choice is D.
