Mathematics

VARVARA [1.3K]4 years ago
5 0
We have that
<span>a*(3x-8)=b-18x
3ax-8a=18x+b
</span><span>The only way for this to happen (non-trivially) is if the coefficients of x are equal, and the constant terms are equal
</span>so
3ax=18x-----> 3a=18--------> a=6
-8a=b---------> b=-8*6-------> b=-48

the answer is
a=6
b=-48

Find the vertex, focus, and directrix. y = 1/24(x+1)² - 3. 
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
y = \frac{1}{24}(x+1)^2 - 3\\\\y+3 =\frac{1}{24}(x+1)^2\ \ / *24\\\\ (x+1)^2 = 24(y+3)

This   is  an  equation  of  a  parabola  that  opens  upwards.

Its \ standard \ form: \\(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)\\ (h,k)=(x,y) \ coordinates \ of \ the \ vertex\\\ (h,k)=(-1,-3) \\\\axis \ of \ symmetry: \ x= -1\\ \\4p=24\ \ /:4\\p=6

focus:(h,k+p)=(-1,-3+6)=(-1,3) \\ \\directrix: \ y=k-p=-3-6=-9
