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

What is the product
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}6&18\\\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the product of the matrices: \left[\begin{array}{cc}4&2\\\end{array}\right] × \left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&5\\7&-1\\\end{array}\right]

Multiply rows of the first matrix by the columns of the second matrix.

(4 × (–2) + 2 × 7          4 × 5 + 2 × (–1))

After simplifying this, we get the product \left[\begin{array}{cc}6&18\\\end{array}\right]

Hence, \left[\begin{array}{cc}4&2\\\end{array}\right] × \left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&5\\7&-1\\\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}6&18\\\end{array}\right]

What is the approximate distance between the points (-5,1) and (-2,3) on a coordinate grid? Show me an example please
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

d=\sqrt{13}\ units   or  d=3.61\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

A(-5,1)\\E(-2,3)  

substitute the values

d=\sqrt{(3-1)^{2}+(-2+5)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(2)^{2}+(3)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{13}\ units

d=3.61\ units

Please help me solve this question:)​
omeli [17]

Answer:

The answer would be a=2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both sides of the equation are being multiplied by b then you would divide both of them by B. This will just remove the B from the equation entirely and leave you with a=2. I hope that this was helpful.
