the triangles below are similar. find the value of x. show all work

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 12/8 or 3/2

So we can use proportions

3/2=x/15

x=22.5

given : the shape of his satellite can be modeled by   where x and y are modeled in inches.

now,the given equation   is a equation of parabola.

here, coefficient of x is positive, hence the parabola opens rightwards.

on comparing this equation with standard equation , we get

in standard equation, coordinates of focus=(0,m)

thus for given equation coordinates of focus=(0,1.5)
