Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x²+7

vertex(0,7)

the length of latus rectum in a parabola equal to four times the focal length :

y=x²+7

focus X=-b/2a=0

focus Y=c- (b²-1)/4a=7+1/4=29/4

focus (0 , 29/4)

latus rectum is 29/4

(x-h)^2 = 4p (y-k)   4p is the length of the latus rectum with vertex(0,7)

(0-0)²=4p(29/4-7)

0=29p-28p=1p

the length of the latus rectum is 1

Answer:

  1

Step-by-step explanation:

The short answer is that <em>the length of the latus rectum is the reciprocal of the magnitude of the leading coefficient</em>.

In y = x^2 +7, the leading coefficient is 1.

  latus rectum = 1/|1| = 1

Toni can carry up to 18 lb in her backpack. Her lunch weighs 1 lb, her gym clothes weigh 2 lb, and her books (b) weigh 3 lb each
Sergeu [11.5K]
Toni can carry up to 5 books

1+2+3b=18
combine 1 and 2
3+3b=18
subtract 3 from both sides
3b=15
divide 3 from both sides
b=5

Root 8 + 3 root 32 - root 50
lisov135 [29]
\sqrt{8} + 3 \sqrt{32} - \sqrt{50}

= \sqrt{4 \times 2} + 3 \sqrt{16 \times 2} - \sqrt{25 \times 2}

= 2\sqrt{ 2} + 12 \sqrt{2} - 5\sqrt{  2}

= 9\sqrt{ 2}
