Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Points A B C D and E are collinear.

\therefore AE = AC + CE\\\therefore AC = AE - CE\\\therefore AC = x + 50 - (x + 32) \\\therefore AC = x + 50 - x - 32 \\\therefore AC =  50 - 32 \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore AC = 18}}

suppose that a water fountain produces a stream of water that follows the shape of a parabola. assigning the origin of a coordin
Readme [11.4K]

The quadratic regression equation for the stream of water is y=-0.139x^{2} +1.667x {parabola}

     

Given that the water stream produced by fountain is parabola

Vertex of parabola is (6,5) , parbola is facing downward,axis of symmetry of parabola is x=6 and parabola passes through (0,0)

according to symmetry the third point on the parabola is (12,0)

General equation for a parabola⇒ Y=-4aX^{2}

⇒(y-5)=-4a(x-6)^{2}    { as the Vertex of parabola is (6,5) }

⇒(y-5)=-4a(x^{2} +36-12x)

subtituting (0,0) in the equation to get the value of a

⇒-5=-4a(36)

⇒ a=\frac{-5}{144}                      

equation of parabola⇒(y-5)=-4( \frac{5}{144})(x-6)^{2}

Therefore,The quadratic regression equation for the stream of water is y=-0.139x^{2} +1.667x
