Answer:

1872 gross should Reggie order for a three month supply.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

200 guitar picks each week.

To Find:

How many gross should be ordered for three months period

Solution:

Now  the guitar picks corresponds to the  order picks by gross as follows;

given that 200 guitar picks corresponds to 144 gross orders

Now 200 are sold for each weeks i.e 7 days

<em>Now for 3 months there are approximately 13 weeks </em>

so Total sell for 3 months=13*200=2600 guitars

Now The ratio of guitar picks to gross orders is ,

144/200

=1/1.39=0.72

So 2600 guitars corresponds to 2600*(1/1.39)

i.e. 2600/1.39

=1872 Gross orders are required to get three month of supply

GEOMETRY Kymani has two equal-sized large pitchers and two equal-sized small pitchers. All of the pitchers together hold 40 cups
melamori03 [73]

Each of the small pitcher will contain 4 cups of water while each of the large pitcher will contain 16 cups of water.

Therefore,  two equal-sized large pitchers will hold 32 cups of water while the two equal-sized small pitchers will hold 8 cups of water

<h3>Larger Pitchers</h3>

The 2 larger pitchers are equal in size.

Let

each size of the large pitcher = x

Two large size pitcher = 2x

<h3>Smaller Pitchers</h3>

The 2 smaller pitchers are equal in size

let

each size of the pitcher = y

Two small sized pitchers = 2y

<h3>Pitchers Capacities</h3>

The whole pitchers holds 40 cups of water. Therefore,

  • 2x + 2y = 40

The capacity of one large pitcher minus the capacity of one small pitcher is 12 cups. Therefore,

  • x - y  = 12

Combine the equations.

2x + 2y = 40

x - y = 12

x + y = 20

2y = 8

y = 8 / 2

y = 4

x - 4 = 12

x = 12 + 4

x = 16

A parabola can be drawn given a focus of
Volgvan

Answer:

y=-\frac{1}{4}(x-2)^{2}+9

Step-by-step explanation:

Any point on a given parabola is equidistant from focus and directrix.

Given:

Focus of the parabola is at (2,8).

Directrix of the parabola is y=10.

Let (x,y) be any point on the parabola. Then, from the definition of a parabola,

Distance of (x,y) from focus = Distance of (x,y) from directrix.

Therefore,

\sqrt{(x-2)^{2}+(y-8)^{2}}=|y-10|

Squaring both sides, we get

(x-2)^{2}+(y-8)^{2}=(y-10)^{2}\\(x-2)^{2}=(y-10)^{2}-(y-8)^{2}\\(x-2)^{2}=(y-10+y-8)(y-10-(y-8))...............[\because a^{2}-b^{2}=(a+b)(a-b)]\\(x-2)^{2}=(2y-18)(y-10-y+8)\\(x-2)^{2}=2(y-9)(-2)\\(x-2)^{2}=-4(y-9)\\y-9=-\frac{1}{4}(x-2)^{2}\\y=-\frac{1}{4}(x-2)^{2}+9

Hence, the equation of the parabola is y=-\frac{1}{4}(x-2)^{2}+9.
