Find the equation of a parabola with a vertical axis and its vertex at the origin and passing through the point (-2, 3)

Mathematics

vredina [299]3 years ago

a vertical axis, I assume it means a vertical axis of symmetry, thus it'd be a vertical parabola, like the one in the picture below.

\bf ~~~~~~\textit{parabola vertex form} \\\\ \begin{array}{llll} y=a(x- h)^2+ k\qquad \qquad \leftarrow vertical\\\\ x=a(y- k)^2+ h \end{array} \qquad\qquad vertex~~(\stackrel{}{ h},\stackrel{}{ k}) \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \begin{cases} h=0\\ k=0 \end{cases}\implies y=a(x-0)^2+0 \\\\\\ \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} x=-2\\ y=3 \end{cases}\implies 3=a(-2-0)^2+0\implies 3=4a \\\\\\ \cfrac{3}{4}=a~\hspace{10em}y=\cfrac{3}{4}(x-0)^2+0\implies \boxed{y=\cfrac{3}{4}x^2}

How do I evaluate 8^7 / 8^7?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The final result is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the following:

\frac{x^{m}}{x^{n}} = x^{m-n} \\

And that x^0= 1

We have: 8^7 / 8^7= 8 ^ (7-7)=8^0=1

A)$150 at 3 % interest for 2 years
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

A)  159.135 = X

B) 2,531.25 = X

C)  6,187.5 = X

D) 831,947.46 = X

Step-by-step explanation:

The following investments are required to be calculated:

A) $ 150 at 3% interest for 2 years

B) $ 750.00 at 1/2% interest for 3 years

C) $ 2,250.00 at 1 3/4% interest for 1 year

D) $ 2,550.00 at 3 1/4 interest for 4 years

Therefore, the following calculations must be performed:

A)

150 x (1 + 0.03) ^ 2 = X

150 x 1.03 ^ 2 = X

159.135 = X

B)

750 x (1 + 0.5) ^ 3 = X

750 x 1.5 ^ 3 = X

2,531.25 = X

C)

2,250 x (1 + 1.75) = X

2,250 x 2.75 = X

6,187.5 = X

D)

2,550 x (1 + 3.25) ^ 4 = X

2,550 x 4.25 ^ 4 = X

831,947.46 = X

Find the length of arc RQ. Use 3.14
Helen [10]

Answer:

The length of arc PQ is 8.1 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find the angle of POQ. Given that total angles in a circle is 360°, so you have to subtract to get ∠POQ :

73 + 150 + 65 + ∠POQ = 360

288 + ∠POQ = 360

∠POQ = 360 - 288 = 72

Next, you have to apply length of arc formula, Arc = θ/360×2×π×r where θ represents the angle of arc and r is the radius of circle :

arc =  \frac{θ}{360}  \times 2 \times \pi \times r

let \: θ = 72,\pi = 3.14,r = 6.48

arc =  \frac{72}{360}  \times 2 \times 3.14 \times 6.48

arc = 8.1 \: inches \: (near.tenth)

32.8g of sugar is needed to make 4 cakes. How much sugar is needed for 7 cakes?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

57.4g

Step-by-step explanation:

32.8g of sugar is needed to make 4 cakes. How much sugar is needed for 7 cakes?

From the above questions, we know that:

4 cakes = 32.8g

7 cakes = x g

Cross Multiply

4 × xg = 7 × 32.8g

x = 7 × 32.8g/4

x = 57.4 g

Therefore, 57.4g is needed for 7 cakes
