Flying fish use their pectoral fins like airplane wings to glide through the air. Suppose a flying fish reaches a maximum height

of 5 ft after flying a horizontal distance of 33 ft. Write a quadratic function y=a(x-h)^2+k that models the flight path assuming the fish leaves the water at (0,0). Describe how the changing value of a,h, or k affects the flight path

The flight is in the shape of a parabola with a vertex 5 feet above the water and  1/2 * 33 = 16.5 feet horizontally from the point of leaving the water

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

where  (h,k)  is the vertex of the  parabola and here it is (5 , 16.5), so we have the function:-

y = a(x - 16.5)^2 + 5

when x = 0 y = 0  so

0 = a(-16.5)^2 + 5

which gives a = -0.018365

So our function for the flight path is

y = -0.018365(x - 16.5)^2 + 5     Answer

Answer:

Equation: y= -0.00459*(x-33)^{2} + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the value as height in axis y, and horizontal distance in axis x

y=a*(x-h)^{2}+k\\  h=33\\k=5\\y=a*(x-33)^{2}+5

X=0, Y=0

y=a*(x-33)^{2}+5\\ 0=a*(0-33)^{2}+5\\a=-\frac{5}{33^{2} } =-0.00459

In the figure can see the motion of the fish while flying like airplane

5+5 divded by 6 multiplied by 100 divded by 25 +1000 - 3456 multiplied by 60 and divded by 23 = what
Paladinen [302]

Answer:-9,015.23 i think plz dont come at me if wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

5+5=10/6=1.6*100=166.6/(25+1000=1025)=0.16-3456=-3,455.84*60=-207,350.4/23=-9,015.23

What kind of sequence is the pattern 1, 6, 7, 13, 20, ...?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The given sequence 6, 7, 13, 20, ... is a recursive sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

As the given sequence is

6, 7, 13, 20, ...

  • It cannot be an arithmetic sequence as the common difference between two consecutive terms in not constant.

As

d = 7-6=1,  d = 13-7=6

As d is not same. Hence, it cannot be an arithmetic sequence.

  • It also cannot be a geometrical sequence and exponential sequence.

It cannot be geometric sequence as the common ratio between two consecutive terms in not constant.

As

r = 7-6=1,  r = 13-7=6

r = \frac{7}{6},  r = \frac{13}{7}

As r is not same, Hence, it cannot be a geometric sequence or exponential sequence. As exponential sequence and geometric sequence are basically the same thing.

So, if we carefully observe, we can determine that:

  • The given sequence 6, 7, 13, 20, ... is a recursive sequence.

Please have a close look that each term is being created by adding the preceding two terms.

For example, the sequence is generated by starting from 1.

     {\displaystyle F_{1}=1

and

     {\displaystyle F_{n}=F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}}

for n > 1.
