Answer:

x=8((m*p)/y)

Step-by-step explanation:

You have that x varies directly with p*m (which means that if the result of m*p increase, x increase)

And you have too that x is inversely with y (which means that if y increase, x decrease).

Then you must get:

x=constant value((m*p)/y)

If the problem says that x is 2, y is 4, p is 0.5, and m is 2

the constant value should be 8, in this way:

x=8((m*p)/y)

If you replace:

x=8((2*0,5)/4)

The result is x=2

Fabio is designing a flashlight that uses a parabolic reflecting mirror and a light source. The shape of the mirror can be model
ohaa [14]

Answer:

(2, 11/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a vertical parabola; we know that because x is squared here, while y is not.  The standard equation of a vertical parabola with vertex (h,k) is

4p(y-k) = (x-h)^2, where p is the distance between the vertex and the focus.  Comparing

4p(y-k) = (x-h)^2 to

10(y-3)  = (x-2)^2, we see that 4p = 10.  Therefore, p = 10/4 = 5/2, which is the vertical distance between the focus and the vertex.

Since the coordinates of the vertex are easily read from the given equation

(x-2)^2=10(y-3):  (h,k) = (2, 3)

all we need to do is to add p (5/2) to the y-coordinate (3);

The focus is at (2, 3 + 5/2), or (2, 11/2).

Which expression is equivalent to 7a2b + 10a2b2 + 14a2b3?
Ugo [173]
The given expression can be simplified in many ways by grouping like terms. The simplest form is obtained by factoring out a²b which gives us the following expression.

a²b(7 + 10b +14b²)

A mirror is made of two congruent parallelograms as shown in the diagram. The parallelograms have a combined area of 9 1/3 squar
Vika [28.1K]
Given:
2 parallelograms with an area of 9 1/3 yd²
height of each parallelogram is 1 1/3 yd

Area of parallelogram = base * height

We need to divide the combined area into two to get each parallelogram's base.

9 1/3 = ((9*3)+1)/3 = 28/3

28/3 ÷ 2 = 28/3 * 1/2 = 28/6 yd² or 4 4/6 yd² ⇒ 4 2/3 yd²

Area of each parallelogram is 4 2/3 yd²

4 2/3 yd² = base * 1 1/3 yd

14/3 yd² ÷ 4/3 yd = base

14/3 yd² x 3/4 yd = base
14*3 / 3*4 = base
42 / 12 = base
3 6/12 yd = base
or 3 1/2 yd = base

a) the base of each parallelogram is 3 1/2 yards
b) we can assume that the two parallelograms form a rectangle.
area of a rectangle is length times width.

length is 3 1/2 yds * 2 = 7 yds
width is 3 1/2 yds

Area of rectangle = 7 yds * 3 1/2 yds
Area = 7 yd * 7/2 yd
Area = 7*7 / 2 yd²
Area = 49 / 2 yd²
Area = 24 1/2 yd²
