Samara is adjusting a satellite because she finds it is not focusing the income radio waves perfectly. The shape of her satellit

e can be modeled by (y-3)^2 = 8(x-4) where x and y are modeled in inches. She realizes that the static is a result of the feed antenna shifting slightly off the focus point. What is the focus point of the satellite? (-3,-6) (-3,-4) (3,6) 6,3)

Answer:

\boxed{\text{(6, 3)}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The conic form of the equation for a sideways parabola is

(y - k)² = 4p(x - h)

The focus is at (h + p, k)

The equation of Samara's parabola is

(y - 3)² = 8(x - 4)

h = 4

p = 8/4 = 2

k = 3

h + p = 6

So, the focus point of the satellite dish is at

\boxed{\textbf{(6, 3)}}

What is the measure of PSQ in degrees? Angle PSR measures 99°.
11111nata11111 [884]

we know that

Step 1

Find the value of x

m∠PSR=99°

m∠PSR=(3x+18)+(9x-27)°

so

99 =(3x+18)+(9x-27) \\ 99=12x-9\\ 12x=108\\ x=9degrees

Step 2

Find the value of m∠PSQ

m∠PSQ=(3x+18)

m∠PSQ=(3*9+18)

m∠PSQ=45°

therefore

the answer is the option

C) 45 degrees

Mary bought a paid of jeans and a sweater.The pair of jeans costs $30 and the sweater costs $35 .If sales tax is 6% ,how much di
ella [17]

$30 + $35 = $65

Assuming tax is on whole sale not each item:
$65 * 0.06 (6%) = $3.90 (6% of $65)

$65 + $3.90 = $68.90 ($65 + 6%)

OR

You could combine both of these steps and just use this working:
$65 * 1.06 (106%) = $68.90 (106% of $65)

Use the appropriate normal distribution to approximate the resulting binomial distributions. A convenience store owner claims th
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

0.9256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a convenience store owner claims that 55% of the people buying from her store, on a certain day of the week, buy coffee during their visit

Let X be the number of customers who buy from her store, on a certain day of the week, buy coffee during their visit

X is Binomial (35, 0.55)

since each customer is independent of the other and there are two outcomes.

By approximation to normal we find that both np and nq are >5.

So X can be approximated to normal with mean = np = 19.25

and std dev = \sqrt{npq} \\=2.943

Required probability = prob that fewer than 24 customers in the sample buy coffee during their visit on that certain day of the week

= P(X (after effecting continuity correction)

= 0.9256

Show a way to count from 170 to 410 using tens and hundreds. circle at least 1 benchmark number
Anastasy [175]
Benchmark are numbers that are used as standards to which the rest of the data is compared to. When counting numbers using a number line, the benchmark numbers are the intervals written on the axis. For benchmark numbers of 10, the number line on top of the attached picture is shown. Starting from 170, the tick marks are added by 10, such that the next numbers are 180, 190, 200, and so on and so forth. When you want to find 410, just find the benchmark number 410.

The same applies to benchmark numbers in intervals of 100. If you want to find 170, used the benchmark numbers 100 and 200. Then, you estimate at which point represents 170. For 410, you base on the benchmark numbers 400 and 500.

7 MPH because 2 1/3
in 20 minutes. So you multiply 20 by 3 you get 60. Then you multiply 2 by 3 you get 6. Then you multiply 1/3 x 3 and you get 1. 6=1=7                    Hope This Helps
