An equation for the parabola would be y²=-19x.
Since we have x=4.75 for the directrix, this tells us that the parabola's axis of symmetry runs parallel to the x-axis. This means we will use the standard form
(y-k)²=4p(x-h), where (h, k) is the vertex, (h+p, k) is the focus and x=h-p is the directrix.
Beginning with the directrix:
x=h-p=4.75
h-p=4.75
Since the vertex is at (0, 0), this means h=0 and k=0:
0-p=4.75
-p=4.75
p=-4.75
Substituting this into the standard form as well as our values for h and k we have:
(y-0)²=4(-4.75)(x-0)
y²=-19x
Use Pythagorean thrm
17^2+10^2=21^2
289+100=441
389≠441
This is not a right triangle
Absolute value because for any number given the y or answer will be no less than 0 it will.always be positive

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The point ( -2 , 3) lies in the 2nd quadrant
Point are generally in the form (x , y). The point you need to plot is ( -2 , 3) which means the value of x = -2 and the value of y = 3.
