Answer:
y²=4√2.x
Step-by-step explanation:
The focus is at (0,4) and directrix is y=x or x-y =0, for a parabola P.
The distance between the focus and the directrix of the parabola P is
=
{Since the perpendicular distance of a point (x1, y1) from the straight line ax+by+c =0 is given by 
}
Let us assume that the equation of the parabola which is congruent with parabola P is y²=4ax
{Since the parabola has vertical directrix}
Hence, the distance between focus and the directrix is 2a = , {Two parabolas are congruent when the distances between their focus and the directrix are same}
⇒ a=√2
Therefore, the equation of the parabola is y²=4√2.x (Answer)
You can use this formula <span>P(AorB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AandB)
Given:
35 LG (14 F & 21 M)
44 SB (28 F & 16 M)
Req:
- the probability that it is a female (F) or a sky blue (SB)
Sol:
</span>P(F or SB) = P(F) + P(SB) - P(F and SB)
= [(14 F + 28 F)/(35 + 44)] + [(44 SB)/(35 + 44)] - [(28 F)/(35 + 44)]
= 53.16 + 55.70 - 35.44
= 73.42%
You have to deduct 28 female parakeets from 44 sky blue parakeets because the 28 parakeets are already accounted for in the female parakeets. You can also think of how many ways you can choose a female parakeet and a sky blue parakeet. Add all female parakeets (14 + 28) = 42. Sky blue parakeet equaled to 44. Minus the 28 female parakeets included in the sky blue parakeet to avoid double counting. 42 + 44 - 28 = 58 divided by 79 (35 + 44) total parakeets = 73.42%
Answer:
990 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of automobiles we have is 11.
Now, what this means is that for the first position , we shall be selecting 1 out of 11 automobiles, this can be done in 11 ways( 11C1 = 11!/(11-1)!1! = 11!/10!1! = 11 ways)
For the second position, since we have the first position already, the number of ways we can select the second position is selecting 1 out of available 10 and that can be done in 10 ways(10C1 ways = 10!9!1! = 10 ways)
For the third position, we have 9 automobiles and we want to select 1, this can be done in 9 ways(9C1 ways = 9!/8!1! = 9 ways)
Thus, the total number of ways the first three finishers come in = 11 * 10 * 9 = 990 ways
In this case x will equal 16
