Answer:
The hiker's elevation after 145 minutes will be 1958 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the trend line of the scatter plot showing a hiker's elevation is y = 8.77x + 686 .......... (1), where x is in minutes (say) and y is in meters (say).
Now, we have to predict the hiker's elevation after 145 minutes.
So, from equation (1) we get, y = 8.77 × 145 + 686 = 1957.65 ≈ 1958 meters. (Answer)
I'm not good at graphing, but desmos.com is an online graphing calculator that works really well.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first parabola has vertex (-1, 0) and y-intercept (0, 1).
We plug these values into the given vertex form equation of a parabola:
y - k = a(x - h)^2 becomes
y - 0 = a(x + 1)^2
Next, we subst. the coordinates of the y-intercept (0, 1) into the above, obtaining:
1 = a(0 + 1)^2, and from this we know that a = 1. Thus, the equation of the first parabola is
y = (x + 1)^2
Second parabola: We follow essentially the same approach. Identify the vertex and the two horizontal intercepts. They are:
vertex: (1, 4)
x-intercepts: (-1, 0) and (3, 0)
Subbing these values into y - k = a(x - h)^2, we obtain:
0 - 4 = a(3 - 1)^2, or
-4 = a(2)². This yields a = -1.
Then the desired equation of the parabola is
y - 4 = -(x - 1)^2

I'm not too sure but I think it's 37.7
Step-by-step explanation:
radius of the base times height is supposed to equal the volume but I'm bad at geometry
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the missing side, write a proportion using side lengths from each similar shape. A proportion is an equation that sets equal two ratios.

Find x by cross multiplying numerator and denominator of each fraction.
4(18) = 12x
72 = 12x
6 = x
