The equation of the parabola whose focus is at (0, 5) and directrix at y = -5 is:

1 answer:

5 0

For a parabola at vertex (0,0)
we see that we have to go up and down
therfor it opens up or down

since focus is above directix, it opens up
x^2=4Py
p is distance from directix to vertex
since it opens up, P is positive
from -5 to 0 is 5 units
x^2=4(5)y
x^2=20y
solve for y
divide both sides by 20
y=(1/20)x^2

first one

to figure out how many hours it will take to drive from his home to his's cousin's house,a student divides 289 by 60 and estimat

crimeas [40]

This would be considered a reasonable estimate because if you were to use estimation, you can round 289 to the nearest hundred (300), which is divisible by 60. When dividing 300 / 60, you will get 5 hours, which is 0.5 greater than 4.5 therefore making it a reasonable estimate. In addition, when actually dividing 289 / 60, you will get approximately 4.8 hours, which is close to the estimate, 4.5 hours.

A coffee supply store waits until the orders for its special coffee blend reach 100 pounds before making up a batch. Coffee sell

Daniel [21]

Let x represent the number of pounds of $10.75/lb coffee used in the mix.
.. 10.75x +3.25(100 -x) = 5.65*100 . . . . . . total cost of coffee blend
.. x(10.75 -3.25) = 100*(5.65 -3.25) . . . . . .separate x-terms from non-x terms
.. x = 240/7.5 = 32

32 pounds of $10.75/lb coffee should be used
68 pounds of $3.25/lb coffee should be used
