The equation of a parabola is:
y = ax {}^{2}  + bx + c
If a>0, then the parabola opens up;
If a<0, then the parabola opens down.
The coordinates of focus are:
( -  \frac{b}{2a}  \:  \:   \frac{1 - b {}^{2}  + 4ac}{4a} )

Geometry, SEMI-EASY question. I will give brainliest. Just want to double-check.
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the point O is the origin.

Then the coordinates of the vertices A,B and C will be,

A → (-12, -8)

B → (-8, 0)

C → (-6, -4)

Rule for the dilation of a point (x, y) by scale factor 'k' about the origin is,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

By this rule, coordinates of the vertices of the image triangle will be,

If k = \frac{1}{2},

A(-12, -8) → A'(-6, -4)  

B(-8, 0) → B'(-4, 0)

C(-6, -4) → C'(-3, -2)

From the given options,

Option B is the answer.

2. through: (8,5), perpendicular to y=-1/2x +4
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Perpendicular slope: flip sign and reciprocal = 2
Y = 2x + b
Plug in point (8,5)
5 = 2(8) + b
5 = 16 + b
b = -11
Equation: y= 2x - 11

Rename 5/6 and 5/8 using the least common denominator.
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

5/6 = 20/24

5/8 = 15/24

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the answers because:

1) First, the least common denominator is 24 because 8 x 3 is 24 and 6 x 4 is 24

2) Next, multiply the numerators with the same number you multiplied with the denominator

5 x 3 = 15

5 x 4 = 20

3) Therefore, the answers are:

5/6 = 20/24

5/8 = 15/24

Hope this helps!
