The easiest way to do do this is to first find out how much % 500 is of 700

first, we can just set it up as a simplified fraction
$\frac{7}{5}$
which is equal to..
$1.4$

then we divide 100 by this number
$100 \div 1.4 = 71.4285...$

*now to check*
multiply the quotient by .01 to get .7142...

then multiply that by 700

we should get a product of 500, confirming our answer

now that we're sure, subtract 71 from 100 to find the percentage decrease

$amswer = 29\%$

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 6) and a directrix of y = 4? f(x) = one fourth (x − 3)2 + 1 f(x)

mina [271]

Let point (x, y) be any point on the graph, than the distance between (x, y) and the focus (3, 6) is sqrt((x - 3)^2 + (y - 6)^2) and the distance between (x, y) and the directrix, y = 4 is |y - 4|

Thus sqrt((x - 3)^2 + (y - 6)^2) = |y - 4|
(x - 3)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = (y - 4)^2
x^2 - 6x + 9 + y^2 - 12y + 36 = y^2 - 8y + 16
x^2 - 6x + 29 = -8y + 12y = 4y
(x - 3)^2 + 20 = 4y
y = 1/4(x - 3)^2 + 5

Required answer is f(x) = one fourth (x - 3)^2 + 5
