Using the given values from the problem and the illustration, three points are known which are (0,0), (6.5,-31), (-6.5,-31). The first step in solving this problem is to determine the equation of the parabola.
y = ax²
-31 = a(6.5)²
-31 = 42.25a 
a = -31/42.25 
a = -124/169 

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is y = (-124/169)x². The value 4.5 is then substituted in the equation as x to get the answer which is 16.14 meters.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

4 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

Total syrup made by Tamita = 18.5 ounces

Amount of ounces per batch = 4 ounces

If 1 batch = 4 ounces

x batches = 18.5 ounces

Cross multiply

4 * x = 18.5

x = 18.5/4

x = 4.625

Hence she can only make 4 batches of syrup
