A parabola has a vertex at (0,0). The equation for the directrix of the parabola is x = –4. In which direction does the parabola

zaharov [31]

The parabola with vertex at (0,0) and directrix at x=-4, will open towards the right.

<h3>What is a directrix?</h3>

A parabola is a collection of points on a plane that are all at the same distance from a particular point and line. The point is called the focus of the parabola while the line is called the directrix. The directrix is perpendicular to a parabola's axis of symmetry and does not contact it.

As we know that the directrix is perpendicular to the axis of the parabola, now since the directrix is at x=-4, the parabola will be horizontal and will be opening either towards the left or the right.

As it is given that the vertex of the parabola is at (0,0) and we know that the parabola can not touch the directrix, therefore, the parabola's vertex will be at (0,0) and will open towards the right side. As shown below.

Hence, the parabola with vertex at (0,0) and directrix at x=-4, will open towards the right.

SOLUTION

Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question.

STEP 1: Write the given function

$g(x)=(\frac{2}{3})^x-2$

STEP 2: Plot the given function

STEP 3: choose the correct graph

It can be seen from the plotted graph in step 2 that:

$\begin{gathered} x-intercept:(-1.71,0) \\ y-intercept:(0,-1) \end{gathered}$

Two numbers are randomly selected from integers 1 through 9. What is the probability that only one of the integers is odd given

Stells [14]

Another one where there's a danger of overthinking it !

The sum of ANY two integers is odd only if one is even and one is odd.

If they're both odd OR both even, then their sum is even.

So if their sum is odd, then one is odd and the other is even.

The probability is ' 1 ' (100%) .

How to do the inverse of a 3x3 matrix gaussian elimination.

nata0808 [166]

As an example, let's invert the matrix

$\begin{bmatrix}-3&2&1\\2&1&1\\1&1&1\end{bmatrix}$

We construct the augmented matrix,

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} -3 & 2 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 2 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array} \right]$

On this augmented matrix, we perform row operations in such a way as to transform the matrix on the left side into the identity matrix, and the matrix on the right will be the inverse that we want to find.

Now we can carry out Gaussian elimination.

• Eliminate the column 1 entry in row 2.

Combine 2 times row 1 with 3 times row 2 :

2 (-3, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0) + 3 (2, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0)

= (-6, 4, 2, 2, 0, 0) + (6, 3, 3, 0, 3, 0)

= (0, 7, 5, 2, 3, 0)

which changes the augmented matrix to

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} -3 & 2 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 7 & 5 & 2 & 3 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array} \right]$

• Eliminate the column 1 entry in row 3.

Using the new aug. matrix, combine row 1 and 3 times row 3 :

(-3, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0) + 3 (1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1)

= (-3, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0) + (3, 3, 3, 0, 0, 3)

= (0, 5, 4, 1, 0, 3)

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} -3 & 2 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 7 & 5 & 2 & 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 5 & 4 & 1 & 0 & 3 \end{array} \right]$

• Eliminate the column 2 entry in row 3.

Combine -5 times row 2 and 7 times row 3 :

-5 (0, 7, 5, 2, 3, 0) + 7 (0, 5, 4, 1, 0, 3)

= (0, -35, -25, -10, -15, 0) + (0, 35, 28, 7, 0, 21)

= (0, 0, 3, -3, -15, 21)

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} -3 & 2 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 7 & 5 & 2 & 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 3 & -3 & -15 & 21 \end{array} \right]$

• Multiply row 3 by 1/3 :

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} -3 & 2 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 7 & 5 & 2 & 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 & -5 & 7 \end{array} \right]$

• Eliminate the column 3 entry in row 2.

Combine row 2 and -5 times row 3 :

(0, 7, 5, 2, 3, 0) - 5 (0, 0, 1, -1, -5, 7)

= (0, 7, 5, 2, 3, 0) + (0, 0, -5, 5, 25, -35)

= (0, 7, 0, 7, 28, -35)

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} -3 & 2 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 7 & 0 & 7 & 28 & -35 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 & -5 & 7 \end{array} \right]$

• Multiply row 2 by 1/7 :

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} -3 & 2 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 4 & -5 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 & -5 & 7 \end{array} \right]$

• Eliminate the column 2 and 3 entries in row 1.

Combine row 1, -2 times row 2, and -1 times row 3 :

(-3, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0) - 2 (0, 1, 0, 1, 4, -5) - (0, 0, 1, -1, -5, 7)

= (-3, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0) + (0, -2, 0, -2, -8, 10) + (0, 0, -1, 1, 5, -7)

= (-3, 0, 0, 0, -3, 3)

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} -3 & 0 & 0 & 0 & -3 & 3 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 4 & -5 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 & -5 & 7 \end{array} \right]$

• Multiply row 1 by -1/3 :

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc} 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 4 & -5 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 & -5 & 7 \end{array} \right]$

So, the inverse of our matrix is

$\begin{bmatrix}-3&2&1\\2&1&1\\1&1&1\end{bmatrix}^{-1} = \begin{bmatrix}0&1&-1\\1&4&-5\\-1&-5&7\end{bmatrix}$
