Since it’s 5/8 minus negative 7/8, the answer is 12/8, you just add them together because the two negative signs cancel each other out.

That would give you 5/8 + 7/8
=12/8
=3/2

Part 4: Identify the vertex, focus and directrix of each. Then sketch the graph.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: 1) Vertex: (6, -2) Focus: (6, -7/4) Directrix: y = -9/4

2) Vertex: (-2, -1) Focus: (-7/4, -1) Directrix: x = -9/4

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

Rewrite the equation in vertex format y = a(x - h)² + k or x = a(y - k)² + h by completing the square. Divide the b-value by 2 and square it - add that value to both sides of the equation.

(h, k) is the vertex
p is the distance from the vertex to the focus
-p is the distance from the vertex to the directrix

$\bullet\quad a=\dfrac{1}{4p}$

1) y = x² - 12x + 34

$y-34=x^2-12x\\\\y-34+\bigg(\dfrac{-12}{2}\bigg)^2=x^2-12x+\bigg(\dfrac{-12}{2}\bigg)^2\\\\\\y-34+36=(x-6)^2\\\\y+2=(x-6)^2\\\\y=(x-6)^2-2\qquad \rightarrow \qquad a=1\quad (h,k)=(6,-2)\\$

$a=\dfrac{1}{4p}\quad \rightarrow \quad 1=\dfrac{1}{4p}\quad \rightarrow \quad p=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\\\\text{Focus = Vertex + p}\\.\qquad \quad =\dfrac{-8}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\.\qquad \quad =-\dfrac{7}{4}\quad \rightarrow \quad\text{Focus}=\bigg(6,-\dfrac{7}{4}\bigg)\\\\\\\text{Directrix: y= Vertex - p}\\.\qquad \qquad y=\dfrac{-8}{4}-\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\.\qquad \qquad y=-\dfrac{9}{4}$

*******************************************************************************************

2) x = y² + 2y - 1

$x+1=y^2+2y\\\\x+1+\bigg(\dfrac{2}{2}\bigg)^2=y^2+2y+\bigg(\dfrac{2}{2}\bigg)^2\\\\\\x+1+1=(y+1)^2\\\\x+2=(y+1)^2\\\\x=(y+1)^2-2\qquad \rightarrow \qquad a=1\quad (h,k)=(-2,-1)\\$

$a=\dfrac{1}{4p}\quad \rightarrow \quad 1=\dfrac{1}{4p}\quad \rightarrow \quad p=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\\\\text{Focus = Vertex + p}\\.\qquad \quad =\dfrac{-8}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\.\qquad \quad =-\dfrac{7}{4}\quad \rightarrow \quad\text{Focus}=\bigg(-\dfrac{7}{4},-1\bigg)\\\\\\\text{Directrix: x= Vertex - p}\\.\qquad \qquad y=\dfrac{-8}{4}-\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\.\qquad \qquad x=-\dfrac{9}{4}$

I REALLY NEED HELP QUICK!

Leni [432]

Answer:

y=1/2x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture you can see that (0, -5) is a point on the function and that (2, -4) is another point. Using these you can find the slope of the function with the equation

$(y_{2} -y_{1})/(x_{2}-x_{1} )$

We can substitute in the points so it looks like

$(-4--5)/(2-0)$ or $1/2$ which is the slope of the function

Now, since the y-intercept is (0, -5) on the graph, the b part in the slope-intercept form of the equation would be -5, leaving us with the equation y=1/2x-5
