Chapter 7.1, Problem 35E
Ultrasound Receiver. Information Unlimited designed and sells the Ultrasonic Receiver, which detects sounds unable to be heard by the human ear. The HT90P can detect mechanical and electrical sounds such as leaking gases, air, corona, and motor friction noises. It can also be used to hear bats, insects, and even beading water. The receiver has a parabolic cross section and is 2.625 in. deep. The focus is 3.287 in. from the vertex. (Source: Information Unlimited, Amherst, NH, Robert Iannini, President) Find the diameter of the outside edge of the receiver.

Explain.arrow_forwardThe equation ×+ 2 = √3x+10 is of the form ×+ a = √bx + c, where a, b, and c are all positive integers and b > 1.
