Which is the focus of a parabola with equation y2 = 4x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
statuscvo [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(1, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write this as y^2 = 4x; the " ^ " indicates exponentiation.

The appropriate equation for a horizontal parabola that opens to the right is

y^2 = 4px

Here, we are told that  y^2 = 4x; this tells us that 4p = 4, and so p = 1.  

Again, this parabola is a horizontal one and it opens to the right.  p = 1 is the distance of the focus from the vertex, and in this case p = 1.  Thus, the focus is at (1, 0) (situated on the x-axis).

The sum of two numbers is 39 and the difference is 3. What are the numbers?
frosja888 [35]

Answer: 21 & 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of two numbers is 39

Difference is 3

Let the numbers be x & y

X+y=39........equation 1

X-y=3...........equation 2

X=3+y............equation 3

Substitute equation 3 into equation 1

(3+y)+y=39

3+y+y=39

3+2y=39

2y=39-3

2y=36

Y=36/2

Y=18

Substitute for y in equation 2

X-y=3

X-18=3

X=3+18

X=21

The two numbers are 21 & 18
