Deanna is adjusting a satellite because she finds it is not focusing the incoming radio waves perfectly. The shape of her satell

ite can be modeled by x^2=12y where x and y are modeled in inches. She realizes that the static is a result of the feed antenna shifting slightly off the focus point. What is the focus point of the satellite?

Answer:

The shape of satellite which is in the shape of parabola, opening upwards is, x^2=12 y, having vertex (0,0).

Comparing with general equation of parabola

x^2=4 a y , having vertex (0,0) and focus (0,a).

Comparing the two above equation of parabola

4 a y = 12 y

4 a = 12

a=3

So, focus of the satellite which is in the shape of parabola=(0,3)

Sonji bought a combination lock that opens with a four-digit number created using the digits 0 through 9. The same digit cannot
iogann1982 [59]
Since it is a four combination lock or permutation and she wants the last digit to be seven we have_,_,_,7
The first digit: Since we need it to be any number except 7 we have 9 possibilities.For the second digit: We have 8 possibilities since the numbers can't be repeated and we already chose 7 to be the last digit and any other digit to be the first digit.For the third digit: there are 7 possibilities since we already chose three numbers and these cannot be repeated. 
We have the following:9*8*7=504
