NASA is designing a new satellite to go on the international space station. The satellite disk is the shape of a parabola. The satellite will be attached to the station on a pole and will place the vertex of the satellite 4 feet away from the surface of the station. The receiver is to be positioned 5 feet above the vertex. Write an equation in standard form that best models the parabolic cross section of the satellite dish.

answer: 193

explanation:

200-7 = 193

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)

step-by-step explanation:

6(h+1)/2=a

a=area

step-by-step explanation:

its the same thing as a square or rectangle but after multiplying two sides you need to divide it by two.
