Answer:

x/5 = y/8

Step-by-step explanation:

x 5

----- = -------

y 8

Using cross products

8x = 5y

Divide each side by 8

x = 5/8 y

Divide each side by 5

x/5 = y/8

4. Gloria the grasshopper is working on her hops.

aivan3 [116]

The path that Gloria follows when she jumped is a path of parabola.

The equation of the parabola that describes the path of her jump is $\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{Height = 20}$

$\mathbf{Length = 28}$

<em>Assume she starts from the origin (0,0)</em>

The midpoint would be:

$\mathbf{Mid = \frac 12 \times Length}$

$\mathbf{Mid = \frac 12 \times 28}$

$\mathbf{Mid = 14}$

So, the vertex of the parabola is:

$\mathbf{Vertex = (Mid,Height)}$

Express properly as:

$\mathbf{(h,k) = (14,20)}$

A point on the graph would be:

$\mathbf{(x,y) = (28,0)}$

The equation of a parabola is calculated using:

$\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}$

Substitute $\mathbf{(h,k) = (14,20)}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}$

$\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

Substitute $\mathbf{(x,y) = (28,0)}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{0 = a(28 - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{0 = a(14)^2 + 20}$

Collect like terms

$\mathbf{a(14)^2 =- 20}$

Solve for a

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{20}{14^2}}$

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{20}{196}}$

Simplify

$\mathbf{a =- \frac{5}{49}}$

Substitute $\mathbf{a =- \frac{5}{49}}$ in $\mathbf{y = a(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

$\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

Hence, the equation of the parabola that describes the path of her jump is $\mathbf{y = -\frac{5}{49}(x - 14)^2 + 20}$

Can someone give me some tips of how to study. I have already tried writing everything in my lesson but it doesn't seem to work

Ainat [17]

Study all notes, reread the chapters again. Have someone ask questions on the chapters page by page. This always has worked for me. Plus try to do this again the night before the test. You will be surprised how much you can remember by doing it again the night before the test. Hope this helps.
