It is easier to do if we get rid of the decimals, so lets multiply both numbers by 10:
5.8/1.2 = 58/12
and reduce the fraction:
= 29/6
then operate:
= 4.83
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are all similar, so corresponding sides are proportional.
__
<h3>x</h3>
long side/short side = x/6 = 12/x
x² = 72 . . . . . . . multiply by 6x
x = 6√2 . . . . . . take the square root
__
<h3>y</h3>
hypotenuse/long side = y/12 = (12+6)/y
y² = 216 . . . . . multiply by 12y
y = 6√6 . . . . . take the square root
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
∵ The quadratic equation form is :
y = [1/2(b - k)] (x - a)² + (b + k)/2
Where (a , b) is the focus and directrix y = k
∵ The focus is (4 , -3) and directix is y = -6
∵ 
∴ 
∴ 
another way:
Assume that (x , y) is the general point on the parabola
∵ The distance between the directrix and (x , y) = the distance between the focus and (x , y)
By using the distance rule:
∵ (y - -6)² = (x - 4)² + (y - -3)² ⇒ (y + 6)² = (x - 4)² + (y + 3)
∴ y² + 12y + 36 = (x - 4)² + y² + 6y + 9
∴ 12y - 6y = (x - 4)² + 9 - 36
∴ 6y = (x - 4)² - 27 ⇒ ÷ 6
∴ y = 1/6 (x - 4)² - 9/2
I believe it would be 2 units to the right
and 4 units down
