ASAP PLZ HELP!!
Dominik [7]

Answer:

A) y² - 5y + 1

B) y² - 5y - 4

C) - 5y + 1

D) - 3y² - 4y - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call P the unkown polynomial and D the difference. In each case, the following must be true:

y² - 5y + 1 - P = D

<em>A)</em>

y² - 5y + 1 - P = 0

y² - 5y + 1 = P

<em>B)</em>

y² - 5y + 1 - P = 5

y² - 5y + 1 - 5 = P

y² - 5y - 4 = P

<em>C)</em>

y² - 5y + 1 - P = y²

y² - 5y + 1 - y² = P

- 5y + 1 = P

<em>D) </em>

y² - 5y + 1 - P = 4y² - y + 7

y² - 5y + 1 - 4y² + y - 7 = P

- 3y² - 4y - 6 = P

The focus of a parabola is (−5,−1) and the directrix is y=−3. What is an equation of the parabola? (x+5)2=8(y+5)
Anna35 [415]
<span><span>Graph <span>x2<span> = 4</span>y</span><span> and state the vertex, focus, axis of symmetry, and directrix.</span></span><span>This is the same graphing that I've done in the past: </span><span>y = (1/4)x2</span><span>. So I'll do the graph as usual:</span></span><span> </span><span>The vertex is obviously at the origin, but I need to "show" this "algebraically" by rearranging the given equation into the conics form:<span>x2 = 4y</span> Copyright © Elizabeth Stapel 2010-2011 All Rights Reserved<span>
(x – 0)2 = 4(y – 0)</span><span>This rearrangement "shows" that the vertex is at </span><span>(h, k) = (0, 0)</span><span>. The axis of symmetry is the vertical line right through the vertex: </span><span>x = 0</span>. (I can always check my graph, if I'm not sure about this.) The focus is "p" units from the vertex. Since the focus is "inside" the parabola and since this is a "right side up" graph, the focus has to be above the vertex.<span>From the conics form of the equation, shown above, I look at what's multiplied on the unsquaredpart and see that </span><span>4p = 4</span><span>, so </span><span>p = 1</span><span>.

To graph, I'll do my T-chart backwards, picking </span>y<span>-values first and then finding the corresponding </span>x<span>-values for </span><span>x = –y2 – 10y – 25</span>:<span>To convert the equation into conics form and find the exact vertex, etc, I'll need to convert the equation to perfect-square form.

(y + 5)2 = –1(x – 0)</span><span>This tells me that </span><span>4p = –1</span><span>, so </span><span>p = –1/4</span><span>. Since the parabola opens to the left, then the focus is </span>1/4<span> units to the left of the vertex. I can see from the equation above that the vertex is at </span><span>(h, k) = (0, –5)</span><span>, so then the focus must be at </span>(–1/4, –5)<span>. The parabola is sideways, so the axis of symmetry is, too. The directrix, being perpendicular to the axis of symmetry, is then vertical, and is </span>1/4<span> units to the right of the vertex.

y</span>2 + 6y + 9 – 15 = –12x + 9</span> <span>
(y + 3)2 – 15 = –12x + 9</span> <span>
(y + 3)2 = –12x + 9 + 15 = –12x + 24</span> <span>
(y + 3)2 = –12(x – 2)</span> <span>
(y – (–3))2 = 4(–3)(x – 2)</span></span><span><span>Then the vertex is at </span><span>(h, k) = (2, –3)</span><span> and the value of </span>p<span> is </span>–3<span>.

Answer:

hello your question has a missing diagram attached below is the missing diagram

answer :  

Mark the point of intersection S of circles R and P, and construct line QS ( option 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

when constructing a tangent line from one point ( lets say Q as seen in the question ) to a circle P. The next step should be to mark a point of intersection between  the given circles and then construct a line through it
