A searchlight is shaped like a parabola. If the light source is located 3 feet from the base along the axis of symmetry and the
Elis [28]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  8√3 ≈ 13.86 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The light source is usually placed at the focus, so the focus-vertex distance is p=3 ft. The equation for the parabola with its vertex at the origin is ...

  y = 1/(4p)x^2

  y = 1/12x^2

The opening for some y-value extends ±x from the axis of symmetry, so is a total of 2x in width.

For y=4, the corresponding value of x is ...

  4 = 1/12x^2

  48 = x^2

  √48 = x = 4√3

Then the width of the searchlight opening is ...

  2(4√3 ft) = 8√3 ft ≈ 13.86 ft

A house purchased for $216,500 gains 2% of its value every year. If this growth rate continues, in how many years will the house
NikAS [45]

Answer: 36 years

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the Rule of 72 to calculate how long it might take the house to double in value.

The Rule of 72 works by dividing 72 by the interest rate as a whole number and the result will be a rough estimate of the time in years it will take for the investment to double in size:

= 72 / 2

= 36 years

Is the triangle with side lengths of 10 in., 24 in., and 26 in. a right triangle? 85 POINTS
monitta
The answer to, Is the Triangle with side lengths of 10 in., 24 in., and 26 in, a right triangle is: Yes.  For right triangles, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides is equal to the square of the longer side.  Thus, this is a right triangle if 10^2+24^2=26^2.  Expanding these squares, we have 100+576=676, which is true.  Thus, the triangle is right.
