Answer:

O A. Trenches were used extensively in World War I.

Explanation:

Trenches are long and narrow pathways dug out to allow the passage or movement of soldiers during wars. They are dug out as hiding places, movement from one side to another while also helping in shielding the soldiers from enemy fire.

In the soldier's letter to his mother, he describes how the "trenches stretch for miles". And even though they cover miles of land, they (soldiers) are unable to move in fear of being shot at. This is why they must be alert and be patient, or they will get shot at any time they make any movement.

The statement that best represents the main idea of this source seems to be that trenches were used extensively during the First World War.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

13.what is the equation of a parabola with the given vertex and focus ?

Slav-nsk [51]

13.

Find the parabola with vertex (-2, 5) and focus (2, 6)

(x-h)^2=4p(y-k), (h,k)=(x,y)

coordinates of the vertex axis of symmetry: x=-2

p=1 (distance above vertex on the axis of symmetry)

4p=4

(x + 2)^2 = 4 (y - 5)

14. What is the center and radius of a circle with the given equation?
x2+4x+y2−10y−7=0

Move all variables to the left side and all constants to the right side.x2+4x+y2−10y=7+0

Add 77 and 00 to get 77.x2+4x+y2−10y=7

Complete the square for x2+4xx2+4x.
(x+2)2−4

Substitute (x+2)2−4(x+2)2-4 for x2+4xx2+4x in the equation x2+4x+y2−10y=7x2+4x+y2-10y=7.
(x+2)2−4+y2−10y=7

Move −4-4 to the right side of the equation by adding 44 to both sides.(x+2)2+y2−10y=7+4

Complete the square for y2−10yy2-10y.
(y−5)2−25

Substitute (y−5)2−25(y-5)2-25 for y2−10yy2-10y in the equation x2+4x+y2−10y=7x2+4x+y2-10y=7.
(x+2)2+(y−5)2−25=7+4

Move −25-25 to the right side of the equation by adding 2525 to both sides.(x+2)2(y−5)2=7+4+25

Add 77 and 44 to get 1111.(x+2)2+(y−5)2=11+25

Add 1111 and 2525 to get 3636.(x+2)2+(y−5)2=36

This is the form of a circle. Use this form to determine the center and radius of the circle.(x−h)2+(y−k)2=r2

Match the values in this circle to those of the standard form. The variable rr represents the radius of the circle, hh represents the x-offset from the origin, and kk represents the y-offset from origin.r=6r=6h=−2h=-2k=5

These values represent the important values for graphing and analyzing a circle.Center: (−2,5)(-2,5)Radius: 6
