The coordinates of the focus of the parabola are (4 , 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of the equation of the parabola is  

(x - h)² = 4p(y - k), where

  • The vertex of the parabola is (h , k)
  • The focus is (h , k + p)
  • The directrix is at y = k - p

∵ The equation of the parabola is 12(y + 3) = (x - 4)²

 - The form of the equation is (x - h)² = 4p(y - k), compare

    between them to find h, k and p

∴ h = 4

∵ - k = 3

- Multiply both sides by -1

∴ k = -3

∵ 4p = 12

- Divide both sides by 4

∴ p = 3

∵ The coordinates of the focus are (h , k + p)

∵ h = 4 , k = -3 , p = 3

∴ k + p = -3 + 3

∴ k + p = 0

∴ The focus is (4 , 0)

The coordinates of the focus of the parabola are (4 , 0)

Given that y = 6 + 4x-x^2express y in the form a.-(x + b)^2, where a and b are
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

6 + 4x − x² = 10 − (x − 2)²

the turning point : (2 , 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

6 + 4x − x² =  − x² + 4x + 6

                 = − (x² − 4x) + 6

                 = − (x² − 4x + 4 − 4) + 6

                 = − [(x − 2)² − 4] + 6

                 = − (x − 2)² + 4 + 6

                 = − (x − 2)² + 10

                 = 10 − (x − 2)²

Then the turning point of y is (2 , 10)

Long ago, people decided to divide the day into units called hours. They chose 24 as the number of hours in one day. Why is 24 a
jasenka [17]
Because 24 is an even number. This means it has more factors and is easier to divide into integers than 23 or 25.

Find the orthocenter of △ABC. A(2, 3), B(−4, −3), C(2, −3)
weqwewe [10]
ANSWER

\boxed { A. \: \: (2,-3) }

EXPLANATION.

The orthocenter is the point of intersection of any two altitudes of the triangle.

First, you need to determine the slope of each side of the triangle.

△ABC has vertices A(2, 3), B(−4, −3), C(2, −3).

slope \: of \: AB = \frac{3 - - 3}{2 - - 4} = \frac{6}{6} = 1

slope \: of \: AC = \frac{ 3 - - 3}{2 - 2} = \frac{6}{0}

This line has undefined slope, which means it is a vertical line.

slope \: of \: BC = \frac{ - 3 - - 3}{ 2 - - 4} = \frac{0}{6} = 0

The slope of this line is zero, meaning the line is a horizontal line.

This implies that side BC and side AC of the given triangle are perpendicular and will intersect at C since they are the altitudes of triangle ABC.

Hence the orthocentre is

(2,-3)
