y = \frac{1}{24}(x+1)^2 - 3\\\\y+3 =\frac{1}{24}(x+1)^2\ \ / *24\\\\ (x+1)^2 = 24(y+3)

This   is  an  equation  of  a  parabola  that  opens  upwards.

Its \ standard \ form: \\(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)\\ (h,k)=(x,y) \ coordinates \ of \ the \ vertex\\\ (h,k)=(-1,-3) \\\\axis \ of \ symmetry: \ x= -1\\ \\4p=24\ \ /:4\\p=6

focus:(h,k+p)=(-1,-3+6)=(-1,3) \\ \\directrix: \ y=k-p=-3-6=-9

The area of a rectangle with width × and length 7× is 7². what does the coefficient 7 mean in terms of the problem?
tatuchka [14]

The coefficient 7 means that the length is 7 times the width

<h3>How to interpret the coefficient?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Width = x

Length = 7x

Area = 7x^2

We have:

Length = 7x

Substitute Width = x in Length = 7x

Length = 7 * Width

This means that the length is 7 times the width

Can someone help me with solving systems by graphing please? (:​
Ket [755]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: In graphing there are two letters x, and y also called X-axis and Y-axis. They are called ordered pairs. To graph on the bottom of the graph are numbers 1-10 or more, those are X. At the left is a straight line numbers 1-10 or more. Now to actually graph if you get an ordered pair lets say, 3,4. the number on the left is the X, and the number on the right is the Y. There is an end in the X-axis, and Y-axis. Start from there, you will always start at the bottom then the left. Start at the 0,0 go three times to left at the bottom, then at the left go up four times. when you get 3,4 add a dot. Then that's your answer. It pretty easy. Hope it helps you!
