The general form of a parabola when using the focus and directrix is:
(x - h)² = 4p(y - k) where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola and 'p' is distance between vertex and the focus. We use this form due to the fact we can see the parabola will open up based on the directrix being below the focus. Remember that the parabola will hug the focus and run away from the directrix. The formula would be slightly different if the parabola was opening either left or right.
Given a focus of (-2,4) and a directrix of y = 0, we can assume the vertex of the parabola is exactly half way in between the focus and the directrix. The focus and vertex with be stacked one above the other, therefore the vertex will be (-2, 2) and the value of 'p' will be 2. We can now write the equation of the parabola:
(x + 2)² = 4(2)(y - 2)
(x + 2)² = 8(y - 2) Now you can solve this equation for y if you prefer solving for 'y' in terms of 'x'
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, imagine I have a finger pointed up, and you have your's as well. They are not congruent / parallell to each other because they are not in the same plane.
Plane: A plane is kind of the space around you, so take a paper and draw a line, the space around the line is called a plane. To make two lines parallell, they have to be straight and be in the same plane
Congruence/congruent= Equal(led) to
Postulates means that you know it without proof, for example, a right angle is 90 degrees.
There are different congruence postulates. It can be used for triangles or for other shapes.
I hope this answers your question, I am not to sure on what you said !
Answer:
1295$
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's denote the monthly salary of Barry A.
Then we have:
A - (1/5)A - (1/7)A = 851
or
(35A - 7A - 5A)/35 = 851
or
23A = 851 x 35
or
23A = 19785
or
A = 1295$
