Find the equation of the first line using the two given points: (1,-1) (-1,-5)
Slope = change in Y over change in x:
Slope = (-5-(-1)) / (-1-(1) = -4/-2 = 2
Now find y intercept: y - y1 = m(x-x1) = y -(-1) = 2(x-1)
Simplify to get y = 2x-3
Now a perpendicular line has a opposite reciprocal slope.
The perpendicular line would be y = -1/2x - 3
You are told the y intercept is -4 units greater, so add -4 to -3 to get -7
The answer would be A. y = -1/2x-7

Answer:
y = -
(x - 1)² + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Any point (x, y) on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix.
Using the distance formula
= | y - 6 |
Square both sides
(x - 1)² + (y + 2)² = (y - 6)² ( expand the factors in y )
(x - 1)² + y² + 4y + 4 = y² - 12y + 36 ( subtract y² - 12y from both sides )
(x - 1)² + 16y + 4 = 36 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
(x - 1)² + 16y = 32 ← subtract (x - 1)² from both sides )
16y = - (x - 1)² + 32 ( divide all terms by 16 )
y = -
(x - 1)² + 2
