Which equation represents a parabola that has a focus of (0 0) and a directrix of y = 2
mel-nik [20]

ANSWER

x ^{2}  =  - 4(y - 1).

EXPLANATION

Since the parabola has the (0, 0) and the directrix at y=2.

The equation is of the form

{(x - h)}^{2}  =  - 4p(y - k)

where (h,k) is the vertex.

The vertex is half way between the directrix and the focus.

The vertex will be at (0,1)

and is the distance from the vertex to the focus which is 1.

{(x - 0)}^{2}  =  - 4(1)(y - 1)

x ^{2}  =  - 4(y - 1)

What is the answer plz I really need help

6) slope is 1, y-intercept is 3, equation in slope-intercept form:

y=x+3

7) Slope of the line that goes through the points (3,9) and (-5,3) is Slope=\frac{3}{4}

8) Slope = m= \frac{2}{3}

y-intercept = b= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

6) Create table of coordinate points:

x     y

-2    1

-1     2

0     3

1      4

2     5

Identify the slope:

Using formula:

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Putting values:

Slope=\frac{2-1}{-1-(-2)}

Slope=\frac{1}{-1+2}

Slope=\frac{1}{1}

Slope=1

So, slope is 1

Identify y-intercept.

y-intercept is found when x=0, so, looking at the table when x = 0, y= 3 so, y-intercept is 3

Equation in the form: y=mx+b

here m is slope and b is y-intercept

Putting values:

y=mx+b\\y=1x+3\\or\,\,y=x+3

So, equation in slope-intercept form:

y=x+3

7) Find the slope of the line that goes through the points (3,9) and (-5,3)

Using formula:

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Putting values:

Slope=\frac{3-9}{-5-(3)}

Slope=\frac{-6}{-5-3}

Slope=\frac{-6}{-8}

Slope=\frac{3}{4}

So, slope of the line that goes through the points (3,9) and (-5,3) is Slope=\frac{3}{4}

8) What is the slope and y-intercept of the following equation:

y=\frac{2}{3}x-4

The equation is in slope-intercept form

The general equation of slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+b

where m is slope and b is y-intercept

Comparing both equations we get:

Slope = m= \frac{2}{3}

y-intercept = b= -4

What is the measure of each angle of a regular 17-gon? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
stich3 [128]

For a regular 17-gon, the measure of the internal angles is:

a =  158.8°

<h3>How to measure the internal angles?</h3>

The measure of the sum of the internal angles of a regular figure of N sides is:

(N - 2)*180°

For the case where N = 17, we have:

(17 - 2)*180° = 2,700°

That is the measure of the sum of the internal angles, and we have 17 of them, so the measure of each angle is:

2,700°/17 = 158.8°

Dave delivered 52 newspapers all together on Saturday and Sunday. He delivered 8 more newspapers on Sunday than on Saturday. How
Harman [31]
Let x=papers on Saturday and y=papers on Sunday

First make equations for the information given to you

x+y=52   (total papers)            and              y= x+8     (he sold 8 more on Sunday)

then since you know y=x+8 then substitute it in the other equation like so

x+(x+8)=52 which means 2x+8=52 which means 2x=44 and therefore x=22

the problem however asks for sunday and not saturday, so solve for y now

y=x+8 which means y=22+8 which means y=30

He sold 30 papers on Sunday
