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)

The volume of the cone shown is 5 cubic inches. What is the height of a cone with the same base diameter but a volume of 10 cubi
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The height of the big cone is double the one in the small cone

h2 = 2h1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

  • The volume of the small cone: 5 cubic inches
  • The volume of the big cone: 10 cubic inches

As we know, the volume of a cone is as following:

V = (1/3)*area of the base*height

If the base diameter are unchanged => area of the base of the two cones are  unchanged and from the given information, the volume of the big cone is double the volume of the small cone. So the height of the big cone is double the one in the small cone

<=> h2 = 2h1
