Answer: a
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to find the perimeter so your units would be feet.
LETTER B
Given that the directrix is at y = 4 and the focus is at (0, -4), then the vertex is at (h, k) = (0, 0).
p is the distance between the vertex and the focus and between the vertex and the directrix = 4 and since the focus is below the directrix, p is negative, i.e. p = -4
Equation of a parabola is given by (x - h)^2 = 4p(y - k)
Therefore, the required equation is (x - 0)^2 = 4(-4)(y - 0)
x^2 = -16y
y = -1/16 x^2
Answer:
x = -7 or x = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming you meant solve for x when f(x) = 0.
f(x) = 3x(x + 7) - 2(x + 7)
0 = (x + 7)(3x - 2) -- Both terms have a common factor of (x + 7) so we can group them
x + 7 = 0 or 3x - 2 = 0 -- Use ZPP
x = -7 or x = 2/3 -- Solve
Answer:
204 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>triangle on the left</u>:
A= l x w x 1/2
A = 12 x 5 x 1/2
A = 30 ft^2
<u>triangle on the right</u>:
Same thing
A = 30 ft^2
<u>square in the middle</u>:
A = l x w
A = 12 x 12
A = 144 ft^2
<u>Add them up</u>:
30 + 30 + 144 = 204 ft^2
