<span>First of all, there should be coherence for the units of measurement -- either they are all meters or they are all ft. I would assume they are all ft.
The correct answer is 75 ft above. T
The explanation is the following: suppose the ground level is the x-axis, the 2 feet of the arch lie respectively on (0,0) and (100,0) on the ground level. Since the arch is 100ft high, the vertex of the parabola will be the point (100,100). Thus, we can find the equation describing the parabola by putting the three points we know in a system and we find that the equation of the parabola is y=(-1/100)x^2+2
To find the focus F, we apply the formula for the focus of a vertical axis parabola, i.e. F(-b/2a;(1-b^2+4ac)/4a).
By substituting a=-1/100, b=2 and c=0 into the formula, we find that the coordinates of the focus F are (100,75).
So we conclude that the focus lies 75ft above ground.</span>
Answer:
<h2>The volume of the larger prims is eight times greater than the smaller prism.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
If the scale factor of the larger prims to the smaller prism is 3, that means each side is triple.
We know the a triangular prims has a volume defined by
If we take that formula as the smaller prism, then the larer prism has a volum of
If we compare, we can deduct that
In words, the volume of the larger prims is eight times greater than the smaller prism.
Answer:
Scale factor = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using similar triangles
AT/AG = AB/AC
9/3 = x+10/3x-10
Cross multiply
3(x+10) = 9(3x-10)
Expand
3x+30 = 27x-90
3x-27x = -90 - 30
-24x = -120
x = 120/24
x = 5
For the larger triangle;
AC = 3x-10
AC = 3(5)-10
AC =15-10
AC = 5
AB = x+10
AB = 5+10
AB = 15
For the scale factor;
Since AT/AG = AB/AC
9/15 = 3/5
3*3/5*3 =3/5
Since the numerator and denominator of the larger triangle is multiplies by the same factor i.3 3. Hence the scale factor is 3
Answer:
78
Step-by-step explanation:
You would look at the middle number of all the numbers to find the median.

Answer:
<em>159 feet of fabric</em>
Step-by-step explanation
We are told that 1 curtain is 36inches long
Since 1 foot = 12inches
x foot = 36inches
Cross multiply;
12 * x = 36
12x = 36
x = 36/12
x = 3
Hence 36inches is same as 3 feet
If Charlotte's curtain company wants to make 53 curtains, the length of 53 curtain is expressed as;
1 curtain = 3feet
53 curtain = y
y = 53 *3
<em>y = 159 feet</em>
<em>Hence she will need 159 feet of fabric</em>
