Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
For any point (x, y ) on the parabola the focus and directrix are equidistant
Using the distance formula
= | y - 8 |
Squaring both sides gives
(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = (y - 8)²
(x - 2)² + y² - 8y + 16 = y² - 16y + 64 ( rearrange and simplify )
(x - 2)² = - 8y + 48
8y = - (x - 2)² + 48
y = - (x - 2)² + 6 → A

Answer:
Area of ΔPQR is 28 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
-P is the point with coordinates ( 0, y-intercept for line x-2y+2 =0)
-rearrange the equation in the point-slope form y=mx+b to find the y coordinate of the point P( 0, b)
x-2y+2 = 0, subtract x and 2 from both sides
-2y = -x-2, divide by -2 both sides
y= (1/2)x +1 so b=1 and P (0, 1)
-Q is the point with coordinates ( 0, y-intercept for line 3x+y -15 =0)
-rearrange the equation in the point-slope form y=mx+b to find the y coordinate of the point Q( 0, b)
3x +y -15 =0, subtract 3x and add 15 to both sides
y= -3x +15 so b=15 and Q(0,15)
-R is the intersection of the two lines so is the solution of the system of equations y= (1/2)x +1 and y= -3x +15
(1/2)x +1 = -3x +15, add 3x and subtract1
(1/2) x+3x = 15-1, combine like terms
(7/2)x = 14 , multiply both sides by 2
7x = 28, divide both sides by 7
x= 4
y= (1/2)x +1 = (4/2) +1 =3 so R(4,3)
- the area of ΔPQR is (base *height)/2
base= 15-1= 14
height = 4
A= (14*4)/2 = 14*2 = 28
