Find the equation of the parabola with a vertex of (5, -2) and a focus of (5, -3)

Setler79 [48]3 years ago

Use the form \left(x-h\right)^2=\frac{1}{4p}\left(y-k \right)
Then we have the vertex is (h,k) and the distance from the vertex to the focus is p. Therefore we have \left(x-5\right)^2=-\frac{1}{4}\left(y+2\right). It is negative because the parabola is pointing downwards.

Answer:

  x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.

  (2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180

  4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)

  x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

<em>Additional comment</em>

A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and  eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.

To answer this, first make an equation representing the data: 

15+ 0.20X= Bill

now plug in data you know:

15 + 0.20(30)= bill

and finally solve it: 
Bill= $21.00

Solve for y: 2x+3y=21
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

y = 7 - 2x/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the y alone, so 3y = -2x+21

Divide everything else by 3, so y = -2x/3 +7

You end with the answer of y= 7-2x+3
