The focus of a parabola is [tex](0, 2)[/tex], and its directrix is the vertical line [tex]x=-6[/tex]. Identify the axis of symmetry, the vertex, and the direction the parabola opens.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\text{Axis of Symmetry: } y = 2}[/tex]

[tex]\huge\boxed{\text{Vertex: } (-3, 2)}[/tex]

The parabola opens to the right (horizontally)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to note a few basic rules about focuses and directrix’s of a parabola.

1. The directrix never touches the parabola, however it is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry

2. The focus never touches the parabola, however it lies on the axis of symmetry of the parabola

3. The directrix is always the same distance away from the vertex as the focus

If we know that the focus of the parabola is (0, 2) and the directrix lies on x=-6. that means these points are 6 units apart as we can assume the line x = -6 crosses the point (-6, 2), making these points 6 units apart (since |-6 - 0| = 6)

These are 6 points apart horizontally, via the x-axis, meaning that this is a horizontally facing parabola, and it opens to the right. We know it can’t open to the left because then the directrix (x = -6) would touch the parabola and then it wouldn’t be a directrix!

The vertex of the parabola will be the same distance away from the focus and the directrix. Since these are 6 units apart, that means the focus will lie [tex]6 \div 2 = 3[/tex] units away from either one.

Halfway between 0 and -6 is -3, so we know the vertex lies on x-coordinate -3. We also know that the focus is on y-value 2, meaning that the vertex will also be on y = 2, since the focus is always on the axis of symmetry.

So our vertex is at [tex](-3, 2)[/tex].

We know that this is a horizontally facing parabola, meaning that our axis of symmetry is going to lay on a y coordinate. The axis of symmetry always contains the vertex, so that means that we can just take the y value of the vertex and use that as the axis of symmetry. The vertex lies at y value 2, meaning that the axis of symmetry is [tex]y=2[/tex]

In conclusion

The vertex is at [tex](-3, 2)[/tex] The axis of symmetry is at [tex]y=2[/tex] The parabola opens to the right (horizontally)

Answers

Awnser:

1/2 as m, and -3 as b

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of any line, you use the formula: mx+b=y, where m is the slope, y is the y coordinate, b is the y intercept, and x is the x coordinate.  However, it only asks for b and m.

You'll need to first find 2 points.

I chose: (6,0) and (0,-3).

The formula to find the slope is: y2-y1/x2-x1.

0-(-3)/6-0

0+3/6

3/6

1/2

Now we need to find the y intercept. However, the graph already tells you what it is. The y intercept always has to have 0 as x.

So the awnser is 1/2 as m, and -3 as b.

1. Find the value of x and y.
2. In an A-figure house, the two congruent sides extend from the ground to form a 34° angle at the peek. What angle does each side form with the ground?

Answers

Problem 4

Note the markings at the top indicate that angle y represents half the angle BAC. In other words, we need 2 copies of angle y to make up angle BAC.

So we know that angle BAC = 2y

Due to the fact that triangle ABC is isosceles, we know that base angles B and C are congruent to 47.

Focusing on triangle ABC we have

A = 2yB = 47C = 47

So,

A+B+C = 180 .... for any triangle, the angles always add to 180

2y+47+47 = 180

2y+94 = 180

2y = 180-94

2y = 86

y = 86/2

y = 43

Turn your attention to triangle ABD.

Here we have

angle A = y = 43angle B = 47angle D = x

We'll use the same idea as above, that all angles add to 180, to get...

A+B+D = 180

y+47+x = 180

43+47+x = 180

x+90 = 180

x = 180-90

x = 90

Answer: D) x = 90, y = 43

===================================================

Problem 5

Let x be the angle formed by the diagonal sides and the horizontal ground. This is considered the base angle because this triangle is isosceles.

We have two base angles x and the third angle up top is 34

x+x+34 = 180

2x+34 = 180

2x = 180-34

2x = 146

x = 146/2

x = 73

A tutor work with 3 students. The oldest student is 6 years oldder then the middle student, and the youngest student is 3 years younger than the middle student. The sum of the ages of the students is 30. How many years old is the youngest student

Answers

Answer:

9 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ages of all of these students are being represented in relation to the middle student's age then we can create formulas for each student and then apply them to the formula for the sum of their ages and solve for the middle child's age (M) like so... (oldest child's age is represented by variable O and youngest child's age is represented by variable Y)

O = M + 6

Y = M - 3

30 = (M+6) + M + (M-3)  ... combine like terms

30 = 3M + 3  ... subtract 3 from both sides

27 = 3M  ... divide both sides by 3

9 = M

Now we know that the middle child is 9 years old.

Answers

Answer:

The graph is a straight line.

The line does not pass through the origin.

The y-intercept of the line is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I know that it's a straight line because the equation is written in this format; y=mx+b (this is a linear equation meaning that it must be a straight line).  In that equation, m is our slope and b is our y-intercept with this information. I know that the y-intercept is 2 since this equation is this y= –12x+2 (the 2 replaced the b which is our y-intercept). The line does not pass through the origin because its y-intercept is 2 which means it's impossible for the line to pass through the origin. (I hope this makes sense)

Joe had a balance of $34 on his credit card. He bought a sandwich and charged $40 on his credit card. 1a.) Write an equation that represents this scenario.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Credit card balance = $34

Amount of sandwich purchased = $40

The cost of sandwich purchased us added to the Initial credit card balance as the balance in a credit card is amount owed.

Hence it could be interpreted as though Joe has made purchases which amounts to $34 with his card before purchasing sandwich that costs $40

Hence; new card balance :

(Intial card balance + cost of sandwich)

$34 + $40 = $74

A new one-year membership at RecPlex costs $160. A registration fee of $28 is paid up front, and the rest is paid monthly. How much do new members pay each month? Write an equation for this..

Answers

Answer:

The first month new members have to pay 188 dollars for the membership.

The equation is 160x+28=y

x stands for the number of months and y stands for the total cost.

For the first month (membership starts) the total cost is 188$. For the second month the total money paid would be 348$. For the third month the total money paid would be 508$. And so on you can use the equation to solve for more months. Just substitute x for the number of months you are solving for.

3. Formulate 900 lbs of a 35% CP ration using Soybean Meal (46% CP) and Oats (12% CP). How many pounds of soybean meal will be used? How many pounds of oats will be used?

Answers

Answer:

The amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats  = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Soybean Meal has 46% CP and Oats has 12% CP.

The total amount of ration is 900 lbs of 35% CP.

Let x pounds of Soyabean has been used, so,

the amount of Oats = 900-x lbs.

The CP amount in 900 lbs mixture will be equal to the sum of CP amounts in x lbs Soyabean and 900-x lbs Oats, i.e

35% of 900 = 46% of x + 12% of (900-x)

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{35}{100}\times 900=\frac{46}{100}\times x+\frac{12}{100}\times (900-x)[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 35\times 900 = 46x + 12\times 900 - 12 x[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 34x= 900(35-12)[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x = (900\times 23)/34[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x = 608.82[/tex] lbs.

So, the amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats  = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

Graham has enough fencing to enclose a rectangular garden with a perimeter of 140 feet. If the width of his garden is 20 feet less than the length, what is the width of the garden?

Answers

Answer:

Width = 25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

W = L - 20

P = 140

Hence,

140 = 2L + 2(L - 20)

140 = 2L + 2L - 40

Collect like terms

140 + 40 = 4L

180 = 4L

L = 180/40

L = 45 feet

Length = 45 feet

Width = L - 20 feet

=( 45 - 20) feet

= 25 feet

The average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [a, b] is computed from ...

  m = (f(b) -f(a))/(b -a)

On the interval [-3, 5] the average rate of change is ...

  m = (f(5) -f(3))/(5 -(-3)) = ((-5^2 +6·5 +12) -(-(-3)^2 +6(-3) +12))/8

a spinner with 10 equally sized slices has 2 red slices, 4 blue slices, and yellow slices. The dial is spun and stops on a slice at random. What is the probability that the dial stops on a red slice.
(Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form).​

Answers

Since there are 10 total slices and 2 are red the probability of the dial stopping on a red slice is 2/10. But in simplest form 1/5.

The probability that the dial stops on a red slice is 1/5 or 20%.

What is Probability?

The ratio of good outcomes to all possible outcomes of an event is known as the probability. The number of positive results for an experiment with 'n' outcomes can be represented by the symbol x. The probability of an occurrence may be calculated using the following formula.

Probability(Event) = Positive Results/Total Results = x/n

In order to better grasp probability, let's look at a straightforward example. Let's say we need to forecast if it will rain or not. Either "Yes" or "No" is the appropriate response to this query.

Given:

number of total slices = 10

Red slices = 2

Blue slices= 4

Yellow slices= 10- 6 = 4

Now, probability that the dial stops on a red slice

=2/10

=1/5

=1/5 x 100
