The standard equation for a parabola that opens upward parallel to the y-axis is x2=4ay, where a = distance from the vertex to focus. Vertex is at origin(0,0)
4a=2
a=2/4
a=1/2 or 0.5
the coordinate of the focus is (0, 1/2)
the equation of the directrix is y=-1/2
320
I am positive it's correcf
Answer:
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
9 - y = 2y
<u>Step 1: Add y to both sides</u>
9 - y + y = 2y + y
9 = 3y
<u>Step 2: Divide both sides by 3</u>
9 / 3 = 3y / 3
3 = y
Answer: y = 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let q represent the number of quarters (the higher-value coin). Then 8-q is the number of dimes, and Jill's total amount in change is ...
0.25q +0.10(8-q) = 1.25
0.15q + 0.80 = 1.25 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
0.15q = 0.45 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.80
q = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15
the number of dimes is 8-q = 8-3 = 5.
Jill has 3 quarters and 5 dimes.
