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)

Pls answer 5a b and c for brianlist
melomori [17]

5.a) Steve - 60=5×12

= <u>5×3×2×2</u>

5.b) Ian - 60=6×10

= <u>3×2×5×2.</u>

<u>Discussion</u> - The prime factors reduce to the same numbers in both Steve's and Ian's case.

5.c) Case 1 of 48 = 6×8

= <u>3×2×2×2×2.</u>

Case 2 of 48 = 12×4

= <u>2×2×3×2×2.</u>

HELP Use either law of sines or law of cosine. Need help on this problem! show work please!​
Marina86 [1]

Answer: x = 15.035677095729 approximately

Round this however you need to.

=================================================

Explanation:

I'm assuming you want to find the value of x, which your diagram is showing to be the length of segment QR.

If so, then we'll need to find the measure of angle Q first. Using the law of sines, we get the following:

sin(Q)/q = sin(R)/r

sin(Q)/PR = sin(R)/PQ

sin(Q)/13 = sin(85)/19

sin(Q) = 13*sin(85)/19

sin(Q) = 0.6816068987

Q = arcsin(0.6816068987) ... or ... Q = 180-arcsin(0.6816068987)

Q = 42.9693397461 ... or ... Q = 137.0306602539

These values are approximate.

----------------

Now if Q = 42.9693397461 approximately, then angle P is

P = 180-Q-R

P = 180-42.9693397461-85

P = 52.0306602539

Similarly, if Q = 137.0306602539 approximately, then,

P = 180-Q-R

P = 180-137.0306602539-85

P = -42.0306602539

A negative angle is not possible, so we'll ignore Q = 137.0306602539

----------------

The only possible value of angle P is approximately P = 52.0306602539

Let's apply the law of sines again to find side p, aka segment QR

sin(P)/p = sin(R)/r

sin(P)/QR = sin(R)/PQ

sin(52.0306602539)/x = sin(85)/19

19*sin(52.0306602539) = x*sin(85)

19*sin(52.0306602539)/sin(85) = x

x = 15.035677095729

This value is approximate.

Round this value however you need to.
