Try this solution:
let the unknown two-digits number be 'xy'.
Then it is possible to write any two-digit number as 10x+y, where x - the tens digit and y - the unit digit.
Using the rule described above the phrase 'the tens digit of a number is twice the units digit' may be written as x=2y.
Using the same rule the phrase 'if the digits are reversed, the new number is 36 is less than the original number' may be written as (10x+y)-(10y+x)=36.
These two equations may be resolved as system of two equations:
\left \{ {{x=2y} \atop {10x+y-(10y+x)=36}} \right. \ =\ \textgreater \  \  \left \{ {{x=8} \atop {y=4}} \right.
Check: the original number is 84, the new number is 48; difference is 84-48=36.

answer: 84

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (-4,17/8) and a directrix of y=15/8
Temka [501]
So hmm notice the graph below

based on where the focus point is at, and the directrix, then, the parabola is opening upwards, meaning the squared variable is the "x"

\bf \begin{array}{llll}&#10;(y-{{ k}})^2=4{{ p}}(x-{{ h}}) \\\\&#10;\boxed{(x-{{ h}})^2=4{{ p}}(y-{{ k}})}\\&#10;\end{array}&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\&#10;{{ p}}=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\&#10;\qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}&#10;\end{array}

now, keep in mind, the vertex is at coordinates h,k
the vertex itself is half-way between the focus and directrix
the directrix is at y=15/8 and the focus is at y=17/8
so, half-way will then be \bf \cfrac{17}{8}-\cfrac{15}{8}=\cfrac{2}{8}\iff \cfrac{1}{4}

well, so is 1/4 between the focus point and the directrix, half of that is 1/8
so, if you move from the focus point 1/8 down, you'll get the y-coordinate for the vertex, or 1/8 up from the directrix, since the vertex is equidistant to either

what's the "p" distance? well, we just found it, is just 1/8

so, the x-coordinate is obviously -4, get the y-coordinate by 17/8 - 1/8   or 15/8 + 1/8

and plug your values (x-h)² = 4p(y-k)   and then solve for "y", that's the equation of the quadratic
