\bf \textit{parabola vertex form with focus point distance}\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
(y-{{ k}})^2=4{{ p}}(x-{{ h}}) \\\\
\boxed{(x-{{ h}})^2=4{{ p}}(y-{{ k}})} \\
\end{array}
\qquad 
\begin{array}{llll}
vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\
{{ p}}=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\
\qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
y=\cfrac{1}{8}x^2\implies (y-0)=\cfrac{1}{8}(x-0)^2\implies 8(y-0)=(x-0)^2
\\\\\\
4(2)(y-0)=(x-0)^2\impliedby \textit{that means, p = 2}

so... if you notice, the vertex is at h,k and that'd be the origin, 0,0

so...since the directrix is "p" units from the vertex, so it'd be 2 units from 0,0

now, the parabola has an equation with a positive leading term's coefficient, namely the 1/8 is positive, thus, the parabola is opening upwards, and the directrix is "outside" the parabola, so is below the vertex

that puts the directrix 2 units below 0,0

y = -2

Answer:

44.59

Step-by-step explanation:

49.92*2 = 49.96/2 = 124.90

Tax on that is 124.90*1.071 = 133.7679

Divide that 3 to get average mean cost

133.7679/3 = 44.589

round to 44.59

3/4x-4/5=1/2x+1 what is x?
Afina-wow [57]
<span>3/4x - 4/5 = 1/2x + 1

</span>3/4x - 4/5 = 2/4x + 1

3/4x - 2/4x = 1 + 4/5

1/4x = 9/5

x =      (9x4) / (5x1)

x = 36/5

x = 7 1/5

Solve for x. Enter your answer as an integer or fraction. -9 -4x=7
jeka57 [31]

-9 -4x = 7

add 9 to both sides in order to isolate the x

-4x = 16

divide by -4

x = -4
