Answer:

d = 0.39 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Diameter (x) = 5inch

Depth (y) = 4 inch

Distance (d) = ?

Using the parabola formula to find the distance d, we have

x² = 4dy

where x = 5/2 = 2.5 and y = 4

Substituting, we have

2.5² = 4 * d* 4

6.25 = 16d

d = 6.25/16

d = 0.39 inch

The table shows the input and output of a function Table(input:3,4,6,11. Output:5,7,11,21) write an equation, in function nation
Anni [7]

f(x) = 2x - 1

To obtain a function we require values of x for x = 3, 4, 5 , 6, .....

The output appears to increase in steps of 2

3 → 5

4 → 7

5 → 9

6 → 11

Looking at the consecutive values of y we should see that these are twice the corresponding value of x subtract 1

f(x) = 2x - 1 ← is a possible function

checking the values for x in the input


f(3) =(2 × 3 ) - 1 = 5

f(4) = (2 × 4 ) - 1 = 7

f(6) = (2 × 6 ) - 1 = 11

f(11) = (2 × 11 ) - 1 = 21
