Using the given values from the problem and the illustration, three points are known which are (0,0), (6.5,-31), (-6.5,-31). The first step in solving this problem is to determine the equation of the parabola.
y = ax²
-31 = a(6.5)²
-31 = 42.25a
a = -31/42.25
a = -124/169
Therefore, the equation of the parabola is y = (-124/169)x². The value 4.5 is then substituted in the equation as x to get the answer which is 16.14 meters.
2 rectangle shaped
1) Length = 160 mi ; Width = 40 mi
2) Length = 440 mi - 160 mi ; Width = 240 mi - 70 mi
1 triangle shape
1) base = 70 mi ; height = 440 mi - 160 mi
Area Rectangle 1 = 160 mi * 40 mi = 6,400 mi²
Area Rectangle 2 = 280 mi * 170 mi = 47,600 mi²
Area Triangle 1 = ((440 mi - 160 mi) * 70mi)/2 = (280mi * 70mi)/2 = 9,800 mi²
Total Area = 6,400 mi² + 47,600 mi² + 9,800 mi² = <span>63,800 mi²</span>
