Answer:

Vertex: (0, 0); Focus: (0, -4); Directrix: y = 4; Focal width: 16 ⇒ answer (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise some facts about the parabola

- Standard form equation for a parabola of vertex at (0 , 0)

- If the equation is in the form  x² =  4py, then  

- The axis of symmetry is the y-axis,  x = 0  

- 4p  equal to the coefficient of y in the given equation to

  solve for  p

- If  p  >  0, the parabola opens up.

- If  p <  0, the parabola opens down.

- Use  p  to find the coordinates of the focus,  (0  ,  p)

- Use  p  to find equation of the directri ,   y= − p

- Use  p  to find the endpoints of the focal diameter,  (±2p  ,  p)

* Now lets solve the problem

- The vertex of the parabola is (0 , 0)

∵ -1/16x² = y ⇒ multiply each side by -16

∴ x² = -16y

∴ 4p = -16 ⇒ ÷ 4 tbe both sides

∴ p = -4

∵ The focus is (0 , p)

∴ The focus is (0 , -4)

∵ The directrix is y = -p

∴ The directrix is y = -(-4) = 4 ⇒ y = 4

∵ The endpoints of the focal diameter,  (±2p  ,  p)

∴ The focal width = 2p - (-2p) = 4p

∴ The focal width = 4 ×  I-4I = 16

* Vertex: (0, 0); Focus: (0, -4); Directrix: y = 4; Focal width: 16

2. Students who wish to represent the school at a school board meeting are asked to stop
ella [17]

Answer: Biased sample

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a biased sample because only students with strong opinions are likely going to volunteer or show interest in representing the school at the board meeting. This sample is a voluntary type sample, and at such the conclusion is not valid. This sample is biased because a group or population of students have a higher or lower sampling probability.

Multiply 6/5 x 25/2<br> PLEASE HURRY I NEED IT NOW
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

65×252=?

 

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

6×255×2=15010

Since 150 divided by 10 equals 15 then,

15010=15

Therefore:

65×252=15

) Find the coordinates of the point A' which is the symmetric point
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Let, coordinate of point A' is (x,y).

Since, A' is the symmetric point  A(3, 2) with respect to the line 2x + y - 12 = 0.​

So, slope of line containing A and A' will be perpendicular to the line 2x + y - 12 = 0 and also their center lies in the line too.

Now, their center is given by :

C( \dfrac{x+3}{2}, \dfrac{y+2}{2})

Also, product of slope will be -1 .( Since, they are parallel )

\dfrac{y-2}{x-3} \times -2  = -1\\\\2y - 4 = x - 3\\\\2y - x = 1

x = 2y - 1

So, C( \dfrac{2y -1 +3}{2}, \dfrac{y+2}{2})\\\\C( \dfrac{2y + 2}{2}, \dfrac{y+2}{2})

Also, C satisfy given line :

2\times ( \dfrac{2y + 2}{2})  + \dfrac{y+2}{2} = 12\\\\4y + 4 + y + 2 = 24\\\\5y = 18\\\\y = \dfrac{18}{5}

Also,

x = 2\times \dfrac{18}{5 } - 1\\\\x = \dfrac{31}{5}

Therefore, the symmetric points isA'(\dfrac{31}{5}, \dfrac{18}{5}) .
