 w x L  = 36 

w =  L- 5 

L x  ( L-5 ) = 36 

L^2 -5L -36 =0 

<span>Use the quadratic formula

L=  - b + radical b^2  - 4 (a)(c)  divided    2.a 

L= 5 + 13  / 2  = 18 /2  =9</span>

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 6) and a directrix of y = 4? f(x) = one fourth (x − 3)2 + 1 f(x)
mina [271]
 Let point (x, y) be any point on the graph, than the distance between (x, y) and the focus (3, 6) is sqrt((x - 3)^2 + (y - 6)^2) and the distance between (x, y) and the directrix, y = 4 is |y - 4|

Thus sqrt((x - 3)^2 + (y - 6)^2) = |y - 4|
(x - 3)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = (y - 4)^2
x^2 - 6x + 9 + y^2 - 12y + 36 = y^2 - 8y + 16
x^2 - 6x + 29 = -8y + 12y = 4y
(x - 3)^2 + 20 = 4y
y = 1/4(x - 3)^2 + 5

Required answer is f(x) = one fourth (x - 3)^2 + 5
