The equation of a parabola whose vertex is (0, 0) and focus is (1 / 8, 0) is equal to x = 2 · y².

<h3>How to derive the equation of the parabola from the locations of the vertex and focus</h3>

Herein we have the case of a parabola whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the x-axis. The <em>standard</em> form of the equation of this parabola is shown below:

(x - h) = [1 / (4 · p)] · (y - k)²     (1)

Where:

  • (h, k) - Coordinates of the vertex.
  • p - Distance from the vertex to the focus.

The distance from the vertex to the focus is 1 / 8. If we know that the location of the vertex is (0, 0), then the <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the parabola is:

x = 2 · y²     (1)

The equation of a parabola whose vertex is (0, 0) and focus is (1 / 8, 0) is equal to x = 2 · y².

Type the expression that results from the following series of steps: Start with y times by 4 then add 9.
xenn [34]

Answer:

4y + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

"y times 4" means 4y because 4*y = 4y

And then "add 9."

Which would be 4y + 9.

PLEASE HELP<br>1.6x-(x-2.8)=(0.2x+1.5)-0.7<br><br>Solve for x
skelet666 [1.2K]
The answer is

1.6x-(x-2.8)=(0.2x+1.5)-0.7

1.5-0.7

1.6x-(x-2.8)=0.2x+0.8

1.6x-x

0.6x+2.8=0.2x+0.8

2.8-2.8 0.8-2.8

0.6x=0.2x-2

0.6x-0.2x 0.2x-0.2x

0.4x=-2

0.4x/0.4 -2/0.4

X=-5
