A bridge in the shape of an arch connects two cities separated by a river. The two ends of the bridge are located at (–7, –13) a

sdas [7]

Answer:

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of an arch corresponds to a parabola.

the general equation for a parabola is:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

we're given three coordinates: (-7,-13),(7,-13) and (0,0)

so we can plug these values in the general equation to make 3 separate equations:

(x,y) = (-7,-13)

$-13=a(-7)^2+b(-7)+c$

$49a-7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (7,-13)

$-13=a(7)^2+b(7)+c$

$49a+7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (0,0)

$0=a(0)^2+b(7)+c$

$c=0$

so we have three equations. and we can solve them simultaneously to find the values of a,b, and c.

we've already found c = 0, let's use substitute it to other equations.

$49a-7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a-7b=-13$

$49a+7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a+7b=-13$

we can solve these two equation using the elimination method, by simply adding the two equations

$\quad\quad49a-7b=-13\\+\quad49a+7b=-13$

------------------------------

$\quad\quad 98a=-26$

$\quad\quad a=-\dfrac{13}{49}$

Now we can plug this value of a in any of the two equations.

$49a-7b=-13$

$49\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)-7b=-13$

$-13-7b=-13$

$-7b=0$

$b=0$

We have the values of a,b, and c. We can plug them in the general equation to find the equation of the arch.

$y=\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)x^2+0x+0$

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

$49y=-13x^2$

This our equation of the arch!

HELP HELP HELP<br><br> Just 5 quick algebra 1 questions for 50 points!

1. x = a

2. y = b

3. It has an undefined slope.

4. You can either use, rise/run or change in y / change in x.

5. Rewrite the given equation in slope-intercept form, then determine the y-intercept, b, of the line.

<h3>What is the Equation of a Line?</h3>

Equation of a line with m as slope and b as y-intercept is given as: y = mx + b.

1. Vertical lines have undefined slope. This implies that, for a given point, (a, b), the equation that models the line would be expressed as x = a, where a is the x-intercept.

Vertical line equation is: x = a.

2. Horizontal lines have 0 as a slope value, therefore, given (a, b), the equation that models the line is: y = b.

3. Equation for a vertical line cannot be written in slope-intercept form because the slope for a vertical line is undefined.

4. Using the following, rise/run or change in y / change in x, the slope (m), can be calculated given the coordinates of two points on a line.

5. To find an equation in point-slope form, e.g. y - 3 = 6(x - 4), rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form:

y - 3 = 6x - 24

y = 6x - 24 + 3

y = 6x - 21

The y-intercept, b, is: -21.

Therefore, the coordinate of the y-intercept would be: (0, -21).
