Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus at (3,1) and a directrix of y = 5

Mathematics

So hmmm  check the picture below

so... the vertex is "p" distance from the focus and the directrix, thus, the vertex is really half-way between both

in this case, 2 units up from the focus or 2 units down from the directrix, and thus it lands at 3,3

now, the "p" distance is 2, however, the directrix is up, the focus point is below it, the parabola opens towards the focus point, thus, the parabola is opening downwards, and the squared variable is the "x"

because the parabola opens downwards, "p" is negative, and thus, -2

now, let's plug all those fellows in then

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

\begin{cases}
h=3\\
k=3\\
p=-2
\end{cases}\implies (x-3)^2=4(-2)(y-3)\implies (x-3)^2=-8(y-3)
\\\\\\
-\cfrac{(x-3)^2}{8}=y-3\implies \boxed{-\cfrac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3=y}

The remainder of the given expression will be 66.

<h3>What is division?</h3>

Division is a method of distributing a group of things into equal parts. It is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic.

The given polynomlal x⁴+3x³-6x²-12x-8 will be divided by x-3 so we need to find the remainder:-

x-3) x⁴+3x³-6x²-12x-8 ( x³-6x²+12x+24

      x²-3x³

    _______________

            6x³-6x²-12x-8

            6x³-18x²

________________________

                   12x²-12x-8

                   -12x²-36x

  _____________________

                            24x-8

                            24x-72

_______________________

                                    66

Hence the remainder of the given expression will be 66.
