Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

30 divided by 5= 6

6 times 3= how far youve already swam(18 feet)

6 times 2= how far you have left(12 feet)

Answer:

Part 1) "a" value is $2$

Part 2) The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

Part 3) The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

Part 4) The vertex is a minimum

Part 5) The quadratic equation in standard form is $y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola into vertex form is equal to

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

where

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

if a > 0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

if a < 0 then the parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

The equation of the axis of symmetry of a vertical parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

$x=h$

In this problem we have

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$ -----> this is the equation in vertex form of a vertical parabola

The value of $a=2$

a>0 then the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

The vertex is the point $(1,8)$

$(h,k)=(1,8)$

The equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=1$

The equation of a vertical parabola in standard form is equal to

$y=ax^{2}+bx+c$

Convert vertex form in standard form

$y=2(x-1)^{2}+8$

$y=2(x^{2}-2x+1)+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+2+8$

$y=2x^{2}-4x+10$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Two adjacent sides of a parallelogram are 6mm and 10mm respectively, and they form an angle measuring 60. Find the area of the p

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

51.96 mm² approximately

Step-by-step explanation:

the first thing you should know is that the area of a rectangle is base*height sin of (

the included angle i.e

Arectangle= bh sin90° since all angles of a rectangle are equal then the included angle is 90°

<em>Arectangle= bh sin90° since sin90 is 1 we simply use the equation bh because multiplying bh by one is bh. bearing this in mind , the area of the parallelogram can be calculated as:</em>

Aparallelogram= bh sin of sin of the included angle

Aparallelogram= bh sin of sin of the included angle Aparallelogram=6mm*10mm sin 60°

Aparallelogram= bh sin of sin of the included angle Aparallelogram=6mm*10mm sin 60°Aparallelogram=60mm² * 0.866

Aparallelogram= bh sin of sin of the included angle Aparallelogram=6mm*10mm sin 60°Aparallelogram=60mm² * 0.866Aparallelogram=51.96 mm² approximately

If L is parallel to M, find the values of x, y, and all 3 angles.

lesya [120]

Answer:

8x - 14 = 5x + 34 (alternate exterior angles)

8x - 5x = 34 + 14

3x = 48

x = 48/3

x = 16

5y + 16 + 8x - 14 = 180 (linear pair)

5y + 16 + 8(16) - 14 = 180

5y + 16 + 128 - 14 = 180

5y + 130 = 180

5y = 180 - 130

5y = 50

y = 50/5

y = 10

∠ (8x - 14) = 114 [(8 × 16 -14)=114]

∠ (5x + 34) = 114 [(5 × 16 +34)=114]

∠ (5y + 16) = 66 [(5 × 10 +16)=66]

hope this helps you!

Arrange in descending order 1/2, 3/4, 2/3

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The question is asking which numbers are larger with respect to one another. An easy way to do this is to convert to decimals, or just memorize it. 1/2=0.5, 3/4=0.75, 2/3=0.666666. So descending order (largest to smallest) 3/4, 2/3, 1/2.
