Answer: (1.5, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The shape of his satellite can be modeled by
where x and y are modeled in inches.
Now,the given equation
is a equation of parabola.
Here, coefficient of x is positive, hence the parabola opens rightwards.
On comparing this equation with standard equation
, we get

In standard equation, coordinates of focus=(m,0)
Thus for given equation coordinates of focus=(1.5,0)
The first term, a, is 2. The common ratio, r, is 4. Thus,
a_(n+1) = 2(4)^(n).
Check: What's the first term? Let n=1. Then we get 2(4)^1, or 8. Is that correct? No.
Try this instead:
a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1). Is this correct? Seeking the first term (n=1), does this formula produce 2? 2*4^0 = 2*1 = 2. YES.
The desired explicit formula is a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1), where n begins at 1.
Answer: The slope is 2/3:)
Step-by-step explanation: (2,5) and (8,9)
9-5 =4 /2=2
8-2 =6 /2= 3
Answer:
At these rates Sydney read 10 pages per hour more than Zander.
Step-by-step explanation:
Zander read
pages in
of an hour.
Therefore, pages read by Zander in 1 hour = 
= 
= 
= 55 pages per hour
Sydney read
pages in
of an hours.
Pages read by Sydney in 1 hour = 
= 
= 65 pages per hour
Therefore, number of pages read more by Sydney as compared to Zander,
= 65 - 55
= 10 pages per hour
At these rates Sydney read 10 pages per hour more than Zander.


Hence they are similar
#2
- <A=<H
- And ratio of sides are same
Hence both triangles are similar by SAS property
#3
