Answer:

A.96.25 steps.  B. Approximately 37 steps shorter

Step-by-step explanation:

From Pythagoras theory,

Hyp² = Adj² + Opp²

Hyp² = 52² + 81²

Hyp² = 2704 + 6561

Hyp² = 9265

Hyp = √9265

Hyp = 96.25 steps

= 81 + 52 = 133 - 96.25

= 36.75 or approximately 37 steps shorter

horsena [70]

Answer:

x = 1/20 y^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a rightward opening  (sideways ) parabola

Directrix = x = -5

Distance formula form point x,y  to directrix and focus are equal:  

(x - -5)^2 = (x-5)^2 + y^2

x^2 + 10x + 25 = x^2 - 10x  + 25 + y^2

20x = y^2

x = 1/20 y^2
