According to the vertex and the directrix of the given parabola, the equation is:

y = \frac{3}{4}(x - 1)^2 + 4

<h3>What is the equation of a parabola given it’s vertex?</h3>

The equation of a quadratic function, of vertex (h,k), is given by:

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

In which a is the leading coefficient.

The directrix is at y = k + 4a.

In this problem, the vertex is (1,4), hence:

h = 1, k = 4

The directrix is at y = 7, hence:

4 + 4a = 7

a = \frac{3}{4}

Hence, the equation is:

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

y = \frac{3}{4}(x - 1)^2 + 4

olganol [36]

Answer:

I guess that "Ura nok seblu" means that all rocks sink in water.

Step-by-step explanation:

A conjecture is an idea, opinion, theory or hypothesis, that is based on partial or incomplete information or evidence. Conjectures are generally speculations since there is not enough proof or evidence to support them.  

Even though Stony's theory didn't have a lot of evidence to support it, he was almost right. Most rocks sink in water, I guess that the only rock that doesn't is pumice. I might be wrong, but I don't know of any other rock that floats.

What is the greatest common multiple of 4 and 8 enter the answer
kirza4 [7]

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4 and 8 is 8. 4 is 2 x 2, while 8 is 2 x 2 x 2. We take the first two that's shared, second two's that shared, and third two that's note. We have three twos, or 2 x 2 x 2 = 8. So the LCM of 4 and 8 is 8.
