<h3>
Answer: 6.93</h3>
Work Shown:
Use the pythagorean theorem to find x
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + 11^2 = 13^2
x^2 + 121 = 169
x^2 = 169 - 121
x^2 = 48
x = sqrt(48)
x = 6.92820323027551
x = 6.93

3 times a number minus 2 equals 13
3 × n - 2 = 13
3n - 2 = 13
take 2 to the other side
3n - 2 + (2) = 13 + (2)
3n = 15
Divide by 3 on either sides to isolate n
=
3 and 3 cancels out
n = 5
check:
3 times 5 minus 2 equals 13
3 × 5 - 2 = 13
15 - 2 = 13
13 = 13
The number is 5
Which parabola?
Equation of the parabola
y - y1 = 4p(x - x1)
The Vertex of the parabola given is (0, 0) because it does not have the values of x1 and y1.
Then Vertex = (0,0)
-Look for two values of y to the left and two points to the right.
You can choose the points that you which
x y
-3 y = -(-3)^2 = -9
-1 y = -(-1)^2 = -1
0 y = -(0)^2 = 0
1 y = -(1)^2 = -1
3 y = -(3)^2 = -9
3 3/6 is the same as 3 1/2, so 23 take 3 is 20. 20 take 1/2 is 19 1/2.
