Given:-   r(t)=< at^2+1,t>  ; -\infty < t< \infty , where a is any positive real number.

Consider the helix parabolic equation :  

                                              r(t)=< at^2+1,t>

now, take the derivatives we get;

                                            r{}'(t)=

As, we know that two vectors are orthogonal if their dot product is zero.

Here,  r(t) and r{}'(t)  are orthogonal i.e,   r\cdot r{}'=0

Therefore, we have ,

                                  < at^2+1,t>\cdot < 2at,1>=0

< at^2+1,t>\cdot < 2at,1>=

                                              =2a^2t^3+2at+t

2a^2t^3+2at+t=0

take t common in above equation we get,

t\cdot \left (2a^2t^2+2a+1\right )=0

⇒t=0 or 2a^2t^2+2a+1=0

To find the solution for t;

take 2a^2t^2+2a+1=0

The numberD = b^2 -4ac determined from the coefficients of the equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

The determinant D=0-4(2a^2)(2a+1)=-8a^2\cdot(2a+1)

Since, for any positive value of a determinant is negative.

Therefore, there is no solution.

The only solution, we have t=0.

Hence, we have only one points on the parabola  r(t)=< at^2+1,t> i.e <1,0>

A pair of shoes is in a ‘35% off’ sale. The recommended retail price (RRP) is £86. How much do the shoes cost in the sale?
9966 [12]

Answer:

Without tax the shoes would cost £55.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get this you take the £86 and multiply it by 0.65 because with the 35% sale you are paying for 65% of the item. You get this number by subtracting 35 from 100 and convert it into a decimal.
