Answer is 1/2.

Explanation:

We can divide 1 pizza up into 4 x 1/4.

So, 2 pizzas would mean 8 x 1/4.

However, if there is only 2 x 1/4, that would mean that it is half of 1 pizza. So,
2 x 1/4 = 1/4

I’m not very sure tho

An arc with length 5 pi over 4 inches is formed by a 15 degree central angle what is the radius of the circle

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Radius of the circle is <em>15 inches.</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Relation between length of arc, radius and the angle subtended by the arc on center is:

$\theta = \dfrac{l}{r} ..... (1)$

where $\theta$ is the central angle in radians subtended by arc

$l$ is the length of arc

$r$ is the radius of arc

We are Given the following details:

$l = \dfrac{5\pi}{4}\ inch$

$\theta = 15^\circ$

We know that $\pi \ radians = 180 ^\circ$

Converting $\theta$ to radians:

$\theta =\dfrac{\pi}{180} \times 15$ radians

Putting the values of $\theta$ and $l$ to find the value of $r$

$\dfrac{\pi}{180} \times 15 = \dfrac{5\pi}{4r}\\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac{45}{3} \\\Rightarrow r = 15 \ inches$

Hence, Radius of the circle is <em>15 inches.</em>

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (1, 1) and a directrix of y = −1? PLs HELP!!

Delicious77 [7]

ANSWER
$f(x)= \frac{1}{4} {(x - 1)}^{2}$

EXPLANATION

Since the directrix is
$y = - 1$

the axis of symmetry of the parabola is parallel to the y-axis.

Again, the focus being,

$(1,1)$

also means that the parabola will open upwards.

The equation of parabola with such properties is given by,

${(x - h)}^{2} = 4p(y - k)$
where
$(h,k)$

is the vertex of the parabola.

The directrix and the axis of symmetry of the parabola will intersect at
$(1, - 1)$

The vertex is the midpoint of the focus and the point of intersection of the axis of the parabola and the directrix.

This implies that,
$h = \frac{1 + 1}{2} = 1$

and
$k = \frac{ - 1 + 1}{2} = 0$

The equation of the parabola now becomes,

$(x - 1) ^{2} = 4p(y - 0)$

$|p| = 1$

Thus, the distance between the vertex and the directrix.

This means that,

$p = - 1 \: or \: 1$

Since the parabola opens up, we choose
$p = 1$
Our equation now becomes,

${(x - 1)}^{2} = 4(1)(y - 0)$

This simplifies to
${(x - 1)}^{2} = 4y$

or

$y = \frac{1}{4} {(x - 1)}^{2}$

This is the same as,

$f(x)= \frac{1}{4} {(x - 1)}^{2}$

The correct answer is D .
