Answer:

\displaystyle \large{y=\dfrac{x^2}{4} + \dfrac{5x}{2} + \dfrac{5}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • Focus = (-5,-4)
  • Directrix = -6

To find:

  • Parabola Equation

Locus of Parabola (Upward/Downward)

\displaystyle \large{\sqrt{(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2} = |y-c|}

Where:

  • (a,b) = focus
  • c = directrix

Hence:

\displaystyle \large{\sqrt{(x+5)^2+(y+4)^2}=|y+6|}

Cancel square root by squaring both sides as we get:

\displaystyle \large{(x+5)^2+(y+4)^2=(y+6)^2}

Solve for y-term:

\displaystyle \large{(x+5)^2=(y+6)^2-(y+4)^2}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+25=y^2+12y+36-y^2-8y-16}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+25=4y+20}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+5=4y}\\\displaystyle \large{y=\dfrac{x^2}{4} + \dfrac{5x}{2} + \dfrac{5}{4}}

WILL GIVE BRAINEST!!! PLEASE HELP
erik [133]

Answer:

1.) The point (24,30) would not be on the line

2.) The point (12,13) would not be on the line either

4.) The slope is a fraction of 2/1

Bonus: y = (2/1)x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

For question three, I looked at the (6,10) point on the graph and compared it with the (a,8) point. That showed me that the y coordinate always moves by 2. Then I looked at the (6,10) coordinate and the (a,8) coordinate and the (4,b) coordinate and saw that there was one x coordinate between 6 and 4 so it must be five. That means the x coordinate moves by 1.

Let me know if you need more help!
