Y=1/8^2-1/2x + 3/2 would be the answer

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.

What is the square root of four
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

It is +2 or since (+2)*(+2 ) gives. If you think that it would be (-2) also then you are wrong because root of a positive rational number is always positive number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the square root of four be ‘k’.

Then we have

(4)^1/2=k

(Squaring both sides)

4=(k)^2

=>(k)^2–4=0

=>(k)^2-(2)^2=0

=>[k+2][k-2]=0 {since (a)^2-(b)^2=(a+b)(a-b)}

if product of two numbers is 0 then either of one must be zero.

If k+2=0 then k=-2

If k-2=0 then k=2

From here we got two answers but -2 should be omitted because when we square an equation we add “root extra”which means that when we square an equation one root is added.
