Which equation represents the equation of the parabola with focus (-3 3) and directrix y=7?

Artemon [7]

Answer:

The equation $y=\frac{-x^2-6x+31}{8}$ represents the equation of the parabola with focus (-3, 3) and directrix y = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the parabola with focus (-3, 3) and directrix y = 7. We start by assuming a general point on the parabola (x, y).

Using the distance formula $d = \sqrt {\left( {x_1 - x_2 } \right)^2 + \left( {y_1 - y_2 } \right)^2 }$ , we find that the distance between (x, y) is

$\sqrt{(x+3)^2+(y-3)^2}$

and the distance between (x, y) and the directrix y = 7 is

$\sqrt{(y-7)^2}$ .

On the parabola, these distances are equal so, we solve for y:

$\sqrt{(x+3)^2+(y-3)^2}=\sqrt{(y-7)^2}\\\\\left(\sqrt{\left(x+3\right)^2+\left(y-3\right)^2}\right)^2=\left(\sqrt{\left(y-7\right)^2}\right)^2\\\\x^2+6x+y^2+18-6y=\left(y-7\right)^2\\\\x^2+6x+y^2+18-6y=y^2-14y+49\\\\y=\frac{-x^2-6x+31}{8}$

Simplify the expression by combining like terms if possible. If not possible select already simplified. 4a^2+2a+4a^2-5

vichka [17]

So the expression is: $4 a^{2} + 2a + 4 a^{2} - 5$

You can combine like terms, which are terms that contain the same variables raised to the same power. That means you can combine the two $4 a^{2}$ . $4 a^{2} + 4 a^{2} = 8 a^{2}$ The other terms can't be combined.

Your final answer should be $8 a^{2} +2a-5$ .

Taryn is shopping for a Christmas tree. At Home Depot the one she likes is $149.00 and she has a 15% off coupon. At Lowe's the o

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

At home depot

Price of Christmas tree = $149.00

Discount = 15%

Amount discounted = 15% of $149

Amount discounted = 15/100 * $149

Amount discounted = 15 * 1.49

Amount discounted = $22.35

Amount she paid = $149-$22.35

Amount she paid = $126.65

At Lowe's:

Price of Christmas tree = $175.00

Discount = 260%

Amount discounted = 20% of $175

Amount discounted = 20/100 * $175

Amount discounted = 0.2 * 175

Amount discounted = $35

Amount she paid = $175-$35

Amount she paid at Lowe's = $140

From the prices above, it can be seen that Home Depot has a better deal since the price after removing discount is lower than that of Lowe's.

Amount she will save will be $140 - $126.65 = $13.35
