What is the value of x?

B, x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Both triangles are similar with a ratio of 22.5/9

so using that an equation can be created like this, =

If simplified, 22.9(x + 4.44) = 23.5(9)

22.5x + 99 = 211.5

22.5x = 112.5

x = 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)
