Y=1/8^2-1/2x + 3/2 would be the answer
Elan Coil [88]3 years ago

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x, y) be a point on the parabola. As the graph is a parabola, the distance of this point to the focus is equal to the distance of  this point from the directrix. So:

√(( x - 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2) = y - (-1)

Squaring both sides:

(x - 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = (y + 1)^2

x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 6y + 9  = y^2 + 2y + 1

x^2 - 4x  + 4 + 9 - 1 = 2y + 6y

8y = x^2 - 4x + 12

y = 1/8(x^2 - 4x + 12)

or we can write it as

y = 1/8x^2 - 1/2 x + 3/2.

13. Whats the domain and range? <br> 14. What’s the domain and range?
jonny [76]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

13) Domain: x -> {-3,-2,-1,0,1,2}, Range: f(x) -> {5}

14) Notice how x can't be -4 as that will make the denominator 0. Therefore, your domain is (-∞,-4)U(-4,∞) and your range is [0,∞) since 0 is the lowest possible real y-value that satisfies the equation (recall that if y<0, you are unable to find the real square root of a real number)

Darlene wrote this proof of the identity (x + y)2 - (x - y)2 = 4xy. Which of the following is a justification for Step 4 of her
Lerok [7]

Answer:  D. Distributive Property

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 4: (x² + 2xy + y²) - (x² - 2xy + y²) = x² + 2xy + y² <u>- x² + 2xy - y²</u>

The difference between the left side and the right side is that the sign of the underlined terms changed because -1 was distributed into them.

If a train travels 70 miles per hour how long will it take it to travel 350 miles at this speed
svetoff [14.1K]
Since the train travels at a rate of 70 miles/hour, the train will take 5 hours to have traveled a total of 350 miles. The missing information in the question you've proposed is the value of "H" or the number of hours (as the unit hours is indicated in the question). This can be determined with the formula <em>Distance = rate X time. </em>350 = 70 X H, in this case. To isolate the variable H, 70 (the rate) divides 350 (the total distance) into 5. 350 ÷ 70 = H. 5 = H, the amount of time spent traveling for 350 miles at a rate of 70 miles/hour.
