Samara is adjusting a satellite because she finds it is not focusing the incoming radio waves perfectly. The shape of her satell

ite can be modeled by y2=2(x+6), where x and y are modeled in inches. She realizes that the static is a result of the feed antenna shifting slightly off the focus point. What is the focus point of the satellite?

This is a parabola by the looks of the equation and the fact that it's a satellite dish. The vertex of the equation is (-6,0) and the focus is 2/4, 1/2. 1/2 plus -6 is -5.5. the focus is (-5.5,0).

This answer is only true if the actual equation is y^2 not 2y

Identify the type of conic section that is represented by the equation y^2- 1 = 4(x-7). DUE IN 2 HOURS, will give BRAINLIEST! A.
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Solution : Parabola

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see only one variable is square in this situation, so it can only be a parabola. We can prove that it is a parabola however by converting it into standard form (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2.

y^2-1=4\left(x-7\right) = y^2-1=4\left(x-7\right)

Respectively it's properties would be as follows,

\left(h,\:k\right)=\left(\frac{27}{4},\:0\right),\:p=1

Which angles are vertical to DEA? Question is located in the attached file (image)​
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

∠CEB

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical angle is one that is directly <em>opposite</em> to the original angle. In this image of two intersecting lines, it looks like the angle ∠CEB is directly across from our angle ∠DEA. So, the angle ∠CEB is <em>vertical to</em> ∠DEA.

Hopefully that was helpful! :)

f(8)=6.4^2

f(8)=40.96

f(8)/8 = 40.96/8

f = 5.12

i'd really appreciate being marked brainliest if you want! i appreciate it :)
