Quadratic_Equations/609582: Since all quadratic expressions form parabolas, are all parabolas quadratic expressions?

Any function that has a parabola for a graph is a quadratic function. However the converse is NOT true. It is NOT true that ALL quadratic expressions form parabolas. is a circle, not a parabola.

For each of the given pairs of dimensions, divide the smaller by 4 and the larger by 5. If you get the same answer, the set of dimension is in the same proportion, otherwise not.

Step 1: Choose either inequality. Change the relationship symbol to "=". Graph the resulting line. If the original relationship symbol was or , do it with a dashed or broken line. If your symbol was or , graph the equation with a solid line.

Step 2: Pick any point on the coordinate plane that does not lie on the line you just graphed. If the line does not pass through the origin, then the origin is an excellent choice for this step. If the line does pass through the origin, select a point other than the origin -- I recommend a point that has small integer coordinates.

Step 3: Substitute the values of the coordinates of the point chosen in Step 2 for the corresponding variables in the inequality you started with in Step 1.

Step 4: Do the appropriate arithmetic to determine whether the substitution created a true statement or not. If you created a true statement, shade in the side of the line containing the point selected in Step 2. If you created a false statement, shade in the side of the line that does not contain the selected point.

Step 5: Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the other inequality. The solution set will be the region where the two shaded areas overlap. If the two shaded areas do not overlap at all, the solution set is the empty set. Note that points on any dashed boundary lines, in the case where you do not have a or relationship, are not included in the solution set. Points on solid boundary lines are included in the solution set.

You don't say whether it is a 5 cm radius base and a 9 cm height or a 5 cm height and a 9 cm radius base. Which ever it is, just plug in the numbers, i.e., calculate



or



And just an "oh by the way" Pie is a food item, generally with a more or less flaky crust (depending on the skill of the preparer) and, when used as a dessert item usually contains a fruit or other sweet filling, or when used as a entrée or side dish generally contains some sort of savory filling. pi is the thirteenth letter of the lower case Greek alphabet representing the mathmatical constant that is the ratio between the circumference and the diameter of a circle.

Linear-equations/609549: Hello. My assignment is to come up with four essential vitamins/minerals and their recommended daily values. Also, four foods that contain each of those vitamins/minerals. Then I have to construct a linear system of equations that determines how much of each item a person would need to consume to achieve the recommended daily value of each nutrient.
For the minerals, I have: Magnesium- 400mg, Potassium-3500mg, Sodium-2400mg, and Zinc-15mg
The foods that I have chosen and calculated are:
1.)4 oz.Chicken: calcium-17.01mg, iron-1.18mg, magnesium-32.89mg, sodium-83.91mg,potassium-290.30mg, & zinc-1.13mg)
2.) 4oz Salmon: calcium-7.94mg, iron-.62mg, mag-35.15mg,sodium-74.84mg, potassium-425.24mg, zinc-.58mg
3.)Whole wheat: calcium-18.20mg, iron-1.75mg, mag-58.24mg,sodium-9.10mg, potassium-123.76mg, zinc-1.04mg
4.)1 cup 2% Milk: calcium-292.80mg, iron-.05mg, mag-26.84mg,sodium-114.68mg, potassium-341.60mg, zinc-1.17mg
Honestly, I have no idea how to begin to create a linear equation for all of these. Hopefully someone can simplify the process for me, or give me an example of a linear equation that I can use to create one for each food

I think the trick to this one is to count 4oz chicken, 4oz salmon, some unspecified amount of whole wheat, and 1 cup milk, as "servings." Then let represent the number of required servings of chicken, represent the number of required servings of salmon, etc.

Now, make yourself a table:

Servings Magnesium Potassium Sodium Zinc
Chicken 32.89 290.30 83.91 1.13
Salmon 35.15 425.24 74.84 0.58
Whole Wheat 58.24 123.76 9.1 1.04
2% Milk 26.84 341.60 114.68 1.17
Requirement 400 3500 2400 15


Next note that the amount of magnesium that you would get from servings of chicken would be mg. So the total amount of magnesium you would get from this chicken/salmon/wheat/milk diet would be:



And you want this to add up to 400mg of magnesium, so:

.

The others are set up the exact same way, just read down each of the columns in the table to get the numbers you need.

You have two expressions in each of which is equal to . They can't both be equal to without being equal to each other, can they? Set the two expressions in equal to each other, collect like terms all in the LHS leaving the resulting quadratic trinomial in equal to zero. Solve the quadratic for its two roots, if they exist. Hint: The resulting quadratic is factorable over the integers.

Quadratic-relations-and-conic-sections/609543: When given the characteristics of the parabola, center at origin, and directrix at x=7. How do you find standard form?

When you say "center" at origin, I presume you mean the vertex is at the origin. A parabola doesn't have a "center" per se, which is a departure from the descriptions of the other three types of conics.

Since the directrix is a vertical line, the axis of the parabola is horizontal. Since the directrix must be outside of the parabola, i.e. the parabola opens away from the directrix, this paricular parabola opens to the left.

The problem with answering this question for you is that you don't define what you mean by "standard" form. There are two common forms for a parabola:



and




Some authors call the first one the "vertex" form and the second one the "standard" form. Other authors call the first one the "standard" form and the second one the "general form." So the question is, what does your teacher/instructor/professor and/or textbook author(s) mean by "standard" form?

Start with either one of your equations.

Step 1. Pick a value for x. It can be anything you like, but 0, 1, or some other small integer usually works well and makes the arithmetic easier.

Step 2. Substitute that value in place of x in your equation. Do the arithmetic and determine the value of y that results.

Step 3. Take the value of x that you selected for step 1 and the value of y that you calculated in step 2 and form an ordered pair (x,y).

Step 4. Plot the ordered pair from Step 3 on your graph. Remember that the x value is the distance right or left along the horizontal axis and the y value is the distance up or down along the vertical axis.

Step 5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 with a different value for x.

Step 6. Draw a line across your graph that passes through the two points that you plotted.

Step 7. Repeat steps 1 through 6 using the other equation.

The point where the lines intersect is the solution, because the coordinates of that point will satisfy (read: make true) both of your equations. You need to determine, by inspection of the graph, what the coordinates of that point are and report your answer as an ordered pair, (x,y), using those coordinates. To check your answer, you should substitute this set of coordinates into each of your original equations and verify that you have a true statement for each of the equations.

If both lines graph to the same line, then the solution set is infinite, i.e. every ordered pair that satisfies one equation will satisfy the other. If the lines are parallel, then the solution set is empty.

A consistent system has at least one solution.

An inconsistent system has no solutions.

An independent system has exactly one solution.

A dependent system has infinitely many solutions.

Therefore a system can be either consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent.

In order for AB to be perpendicular to , a vertical line, the segment AB must be contained in a horizontal line. Horizontal lines have the characteristic that the coordinate of all points in the line are equal. Hence, if point A has a coordinate of 2, then point B must have a coordinate of 2 also. In order for to be the perpendicular bisector of AB, the point where intersects the line containing the segment AB must be the midpoint of AB. We know the coordinate of that midpoint because we know that , and we also know the coordinate of that midpoint because all points on the segement AB (indeed, all points on the line containing the segment AB) have a coordinate of 2. The distance from the point to the point can be calculated using the distance formula, or you can simply note that there is zero difference in the coordinates so the distance is the difference between the coordinates, i.e. 1. That means that point B has to be 1 unit on the other side of the midpoint, that is to say at
