An umbrella sprinkler is positioned on a ceiling at a point whose x- coordinate is 0. Negative values of a indicate distances, in meters, to the left of the position of the sprinkler, and positive values indicate distances to the right. The path of water from the sprinkler can be modeled by the quadratic function w(x) = -1/4(x^2 -12 ) where w(x) is the height of the water, in meters, at position x.

Required:
Which equivalent expressions displays the height of the ceiling as a constant or coefficient?

-1/4x² + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Path of sprinkler is modeled by the quadratic function :

w(x) = -1/4(x^2 -12 )

w(x) = height of the water, in meters, at position x

The height of ceiling as a constant or Coefficient = w(x)

Expanding w(x)

-1/4(x^2 -12 )

-1/4 * x² + 1/4 * 12

-1/4x² + 3

The height of ceiling is -1/4x² + 3

80π/3 or about 83.775

step-by-step explanation:

since a cone is 1/3 of a cylinder, we need to find the base's area. since area = πr^2, we get 16π. then, multiplying this by 5, we get 80π. dividing by 3, since the cone's volume is 1/3 of that of a cylinder's, we get 80π/3.

hope this !

the expression (1.26)2t reveals the approximate rate of increases in the number of plants semiannually.

hope this : )
