Answer:
-0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The 'a' value can be found by looking at the difference between the y-value of a point 1 unit from the vertex, and the y-value of the vertex.
Here, that is a negative fraction of a unit. If we assume the value is a rational number that can be accurately determined from this graph, then we can find it by looking for a point where the graph crosses a grid intersection. It looks like such grid points are (-7, 0) and (3, 0). The vertex is apparently (-2, 4), so the vertex form of the equation is ...
y = a(x +2)^2 +4
Using the point (3, 0), we have ...
0 = a(3 +2)^2 +4 . . . . . fill in the values of x and y
-4 = 25a . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4; next, divide by 25
a = -4/25 = -0.16
Most of the time it will be Length x Width x Height.
Hector has a floor plan showing his new house. On the floor plan, his bedroom is 3 inches wide and 3 1 2 inches long. The scale of the floor plan is 1 4 inch = 1 foot. What is the actual length of Hector’s room? A) 13 feet B) 14 feet C) 15 feet D) 16 feet <span> 1/4 inch = 1 foot
1 inch = 4 feet
3.5 inches = 3.5 * 4 feet = (b) 14 feet.</span>
We are given
total length of cable is 30 feet
and this cable is on hypotenuse sides of the triangles
so, we can draw triangle as
Let's assume those hypotenuse as 'a' and 'b'
so, we will have
now, we can find 'a' and 'b' from triangle
Smaller triangle:
Larger triangle:
we know that
so, we can plug this value
and we get
now, we can solve for x
now, we can use quadratic formula
we get
so,
The point should be located 4.510 feet , 9.627 feet from the smaller pole to use 30 feet cable............Answer
