Explain how you decide wether to multiply or divide by 3 if you need to convert yards to feet.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Converting yards to feet means that we want the label of yards to cancel, leaving feet as our label. Use the factor-label method taught in chemistry.

$???yds *\frac{3feet}{1yd}$

The yards label cancels out, leaving feet as our label. So to answer the question, in order to convert from yards to feet you are multiplying by 3.

A carpenter charges $720 for 18 hours of work. She charges the same amount of money for each hour of work.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off, you know 18 hours= 720

So you could automatically get rid of B and D since 19 and 17 are not 18.

After that, you have it down to A and C. The way you would find how much she charges for one hour is dividing 720 by 18. When you do that it means you are divding 720$ into 18 different groups each group representing an hour. When you divide 720 by 18 you should get 40. So every hour she makes 40 dollars. 40x 2 hours is 80. I hope I helped you!

A parabola has a focus of F(2, -0.5) and a directrix of y=-1.5 P(x,y) represents any point on the parabola, while D(x, -1.5) rep

prohojiy [21]

The sketch of the parabola is attached below

We have the focus $(a,b) = (2, -0.5)$
The point $P(x,y)$
The directrix, c at $y=-1.5$

The steps to find the equation of the parabola are as follows

Step 1
Find the distance between the focus and the point P using Pythagoras. We have two coordinates; $(2, -0.5)$ and $(x,y)$ .
We need the vertical and horizontal distances to find the hypotenuse (the diagram is shown in the second diagram).
The distance between the focus and point P is given by
$\sqrt{ (x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2} }$

Step 2
Find the distance between the point P to the directrix $c$ . It is a vertical distance between y and c, expressed as $y-c$

Step 3
The equation of parabola is then given as
$\sqrt{ (x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2} }$ = $y-c$
$(x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2}= (y-c)^{2}$ ⇒ substituting a, b and c
$(x-2)^{2}+ (y--0.5)^{2} = (y--1.5)^{2}$
$(x-2)^{2}+ (y+0.5)^{2}= (y+1.5)^{2}$ ⇒Rearranging and making $y$ the subject gives

$y= \frac{ x^{2} }{2} -2x+1$
