An airplane 30,000 feet above the ground begins descending at the rate of 2000 feet per minute. assume the plane continues at the same rate of the descent. the planes height and minutes above the ground are related to each other. identify the vari
ables in this situation: x= y=
what is the given information in this problem ( find all that apply)?
y- point
second point:
in this situation:

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:
