Chapter 3: Problem 96
Find the axis of symmetry for each parabola whose equation is given. Use the axis of symmetry to find a second point on the parabola whose \(y\) -coordinate is the same as the given point. $$f(x)=(x-3)^{2}+2 ; \quad(6,11)$$

The heat loss of a glass window varies jointly as the window's area and the difference between the outside and inside temperatures. A window 3 feet wide by 6 feet long loses 1200 Btu per hour when the temperature outside is \(20^{\circ}\) colder than the temperature inside. Find the heat loss through a glass window that is 6 feet wide by 9 feet long when the temperature outside is \(10^{\circ}\) colder than the temperature inside.
The illumination from a light source varies inversely as the square of the distance from the light source. If you raise a lamp from 15 inches to 30 inches over your desk, what happens to the illumination?
Use the four-step procedure for solving variation problems given on page 424 to solve. \(a\) varies directly as \(b\) and inversely as the square of \(c . a=7\) when \(b=9\) and \(c=6 .\) Find \(a\) when \(b=4\) and \(c=8\).
The number of houses that can be served by a water pipe varies directly as the square of the diameter of the pipe. A water pipe that has a 10 -centimeter diameter can supply 50 houses. a. How many houses can be served by a water pipe that has a 30 -centimeter diameter? b. What size water pipe is needed for a new subdivision of 1250 houses?
