A circular plate has a diameter of 6 inches.

Scorpion4ik [409]

D. 9pi square inches

The formula for the area of a circle is <span>π x r^2
Since the diameter is 6, the radius (r) is 3
3^2 = 9
This times pi will give you the area of the plate

What is the distance between (22,-3) and (1, -3)?

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Distance between two points</h2>

The y-value of the two points is unchanged. So, the line is parralel to x-axis.

The distance will be the diffrence between the x-co ordinates.

$\sf Distance = 1 - (-2\dfrac{1}{2})$

$\sf =1+\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\= \dfrac{2}{2}+\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{2}\\\\=3\dfrac{1}{2}$

How to find the vertex calculus 2What is the vertex, focus and directrix of x^2 = 6y

son4ous [18]

Solution:

Given:

$x^2=6y$

Part A:

The vertex of an up-down facing parabola of the form;

$\begin{gathered} y=ax^2+bx+c \\ is \\ x_v=-\frac{b}{2a} \end{gathered}$

Rewriting the equation given;

$\begin{gathered} 6y=x^2 \\ y=\frac{1}{6}x^2 \\ \\ \text{Hence,} \\ a=\frac{1}{6} \\ b=0 \\ c=0 \\ \\ \text{Hence,} \\ x_v=-\frac{b}{2a} \\ x_v=-\frac{0}{2(\frac{1}{6})} \\ x_v=0 \\ \\ _{} \\ \text{Substituting the value of x into y,} \\ y=\frac{1}{6}x^2 \\ y_v=\frac{1}{6}(0^2) \\ y_v=0 \\ \\ \text{Hence, the vertex is;} \\ (x_v,y_v)=(h,k)=(0,0) \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the vertex is (0,0)

Part B:

A parabola is the locus of points such that the distance to a point (the focus) equals the distance to a line (directrix)

Using the standard equation of a parabola;

$\begin{gathered} 4p(y-k)=(x-h)^2 \\ \\ \text{Where;} \\ (h,k)\text{ is the vertex} \\ |p|\text{ is the focal length} \end{gathered}$

Rewriting the equation in standard form,

$\begin{gathered} x^2=6y \\ 6y=x^2 \\ 4(\frac{3}{2})(y-k)=(x-h)^2 \\ \text{putting (h,k)=(0,0)} \\ 4(\frac{3}{2})(y-0)=(x-0)^2 \\ Comparing\text{to the standard form;} \\ p=\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

Since the parabola is symmetric around the y-axis, the focus is a distance p from the center (0,0)

Hence,

$\begin{gathered} Focus\text{ is;} \\ (0,0+p) \\ =(0,0+\frac{3}{2}) \\ =(0,\frac{3}{2}) \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the focus is;

$(0,\frac{3}{2})$

Part C:

A parabola is the locus of points such that the distance to a point (the focus) equals the distance to a line (directrix)

Using the standard equation of a parabola;

$\begin{gathered} 4p(y-k)=(x-h)^2 \\ \\ \text{Where;} \\ (h,k)\text{ is the vertex} \\ |p|\text{ is the focal length} \end{gathered}$

Rewriting the equation in standard form,

Since the parabola is symmetric around the y-axis, the directrix is a line parallel to the x-axis at a distance p from the center (0,0).

Hence,

$\begin{gathered} Directrix\text{ is;} \\ y=0-p \\ y=0-\frac{3}{2} \\ y=-\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the directrix is;

$y=-\frac{3}{2}$
