john is constructing a satellite dish . The receiver is going to be located 15 inches above the vertex of the dish. The dish is going to be 84 inches wide. How deep will the dish be

Answers

Answer 1

The depth of the 84 inches wide satellite dish that has the receiver located 15 inches above the vertex is 29.4 inches.

How can the equations of a parabola be used to find the depth of the dish?

The location of the receiver = 15 inches above the vertex

Width of the dish = 84 inches

The receiver of a satellite dish is normally located at the focus (focal point).

Taking the shape of the satellite dish as a parabola, and writing the equation of the parabola as = 4•a•y, we have;

Coordinates of the focus = (0, a)

Where;

a = The distance of the focus above the vertex

Therefore;

a = 15 inches

The dish is horizontally spaced equally about the vertex.

The farthest point horizontally from the vertex, X, of the dish corresponds to the furthest vertically from the vertex, which is the maximum depth or height, Y.

At the maximum height, from the vertex, Y, (farthest point, vertically from the vertex), we have;

X = 84 ÷ 2 = 42

Which gives;

42² = 4 × 15 × Y

Y = 42² ÷ (4 × 15) = 29.4

The depth of the dish is 29.4 inches

What is a composite function?A composite function is generally a function that is written inside another function. Composition of a function is done by substituting one function into another function. For example, f [g (x)] is the composite function of f (x) and g (x). The composite function f [g (x)] is read as “f of g of x”.

To evaluate a composite function f(g(x)) at some x = a, first compute g(a) by substituting x = a in the function g(x). Then substitute g(a) into the function f(x) by substituting x = g(a). In the same way, we can calculate g(f(a)) as well.

Required calculation -

Amount of money (the earning) per unit x = [tex]f(x) = 2x^{2} + 4[/tex]

the sides of each square have a length of 3 inches. what is the perimeter of Edgar's check boar​

Answers

Answer:

  (b)  96 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the board is the sum of its four edge lengths.

Edge length

Each edge of the board is indicated as being 8 squares long. Each square is 3 inches on a side, so the edge of the board is ...

  8 × (3 in) = 24 in . . . . board edge length

Perimeter

The perimeter of the board is 4 times the length of one edge, so is ...

  P =4s = 4(24 in) = 96 in

The perimeter of Edgar's checkerboard is 96 inches.

__

Scaled geometry (alternate solution)

The perimeter of one small square on the board is ...

  P = 4s = 4(3 in) = 12 in

The whole board is a dilation of one square by a factor of 8. Its perimeter will be ...

  P' = (scale factor) × P

  P' = 8×(12 in) = 96 in

The perimeter of Edgar's checkerboard is 96 inches.

The original price of the item is at 100%, if the 20% is taken off. The price is now at 80%.

Hence 80% of the original price will give the reduced price.

Let the original price be represented by x

80% × x = $113.60

We solve for x

80/100 × x = $113.60

80x/100 = $113.60

The exponential growth rate is obtained as 0.1099.

What is the rate of multiplication?

Now we know that an exponential function has to do with an exponential increase or decrease. An exponential function could increase or decrease and this means that the constant of the function could be a decay constant or a growth constant.

When we have an exponential function, we have to apply the general formula; P(t) = P(o)e^rt

Po = initial number

P(t) = number at time t

r = rate of growth

t = time taken

Thus;

270=90e^10r

the equation that we can solve using the given system of equations is:

3x^5 - 4x^4 - 11x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 15 = 0

Which equation can be solved using the given system of equations?

Here we have the system of equations:

y = 3x^5 - 5x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 4

y = 4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11

Notice that both x and y should represent the same thing in both equations, then we could write:

3x^5 - 5x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 4 = y = 4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11

If we remove the middle part, we get:

3x^5 - 5x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 4  = 4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11

Now, this is an equation that only depends on x.

We can simplify it to get:

3x^5 - 4x^4 - 11x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 15 = 0

That is the equation that we can solve using the given system of equations.

What is the property of rounding off numbers to one decimal place?

It is the same to round a number to one decimal place as to the nearest tenths. At this instance, it is known which numeral is in the hundredths position. When the number in the hundredths place is higher than or equal to 5, the tenths digit is raised by one unit.

How do you round off decimals examples?

A typical rule of thumb is to glance at the digit immediately to the right of the place value you want to round to and make your choice. For instance, rounding 5.1837 to the closest hundredth would result in 5.18 (because 3<5), whereas rounding 5.184 to the nearest thousandth would result in 5.184 (because 7>5).

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to convert both figures into the same unit.Here we can convert both into grams.As 450g is already given in grams, let us convert 1kg into grams.To convert kilograms into grams we have to multiply kilograms by 1000.Therefore,

      1kg × 1000 = 1000g

Now let us write those as a ratio.

     450 :  1000g

     450  :  1000

To write the ratio in the simplest form we can divide both by 50.

        9: 20

As this cannot be simplified anymore, the simplest form of  450: 1000 is 9: 20.

The domain of f(x) = √(x - 7) +9 is x ≥ 7 and the range of f(x) = √(x - 7) +9 is y ≥ 9

How to determine the domain and the range?

The function is given as:

f(x) = √(x - 7) +9

Set the radicand greater than or equal to 0

x - 7 ≥ 0

Add 7 to both sides

x ≥ 7

The above represents the domain

Set the radicand to 0

f(x) = 0 +9

So, we have

f(x) = 9

This represents the minimum value of the range.

So, the range is y ≥ 9

Hence, the domain of f(x) = √(x - 7) +9 is x ≥ 7 and the range of f(x) = √(x - 7) +9 is y ≥ 9

Yu-xi draws a triangle with two angles measuring and . what is the measure, in degrees, of the third angle? 78 79 101 102

Answers

Considering the definition of a right triangle and its properties, the value of the third angle of a triangle with two angles measuring 79 degrees and 23 degrees is 78 degrees.

Triangle definition

A triangle is a polygon that is determined by three line segments called sides, or by three non-aligned points called vertices.

In other words, a triangle is a polygon made up of three sides, as well as three vertices and three interior angles.

One of the properties of any triangle is that the sum of the interior angles is equal to 180°.

Missing angle value in this case

In this case, you know that:

One interior angle measures 79°.Another interior angle measures 23°.The sum of the interior angles is equal to 180°.

So the value of the missing angle can be calculated by:

79° + 23° + missing angle = 180°

Solving:

102° + missing angle = 180°

missing angle= 180° - 102°

missing angle= 78°

Finally, the value of the third angle of a triangle with two angles measuring 79 degrees and 23 degrees is 78 degrees.
