The answer would be 72=x+(x-8), where x is equal to the larger number.
This would be because the sum of 72 is equal to a number and 8 less than that number, which can be represented by x plus 8 less than x, or x+(x-8).

What is the General form of the parabola of (y-3)^2=6(x+8)
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

x = 1.5t^{2}  , y = 3 + 2at.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the parabola Y^{2} = 4aX ,

General form will be

(X = at^{2} , Y = 2at) ,

Thus , for the parabola (y-3)^{2} = 6(x +8)

Here , a = 1.5 and Y from the above equation should be substituted by y - 3 and X must be substituted by x + 8. After substitution of the same we can  use the general equation formula for this parabola also.

Thus , general equation comes out to be :-

x + 8 = 1.5t^{2} , y - 3 = 2at

x = 1.5t^{2}  , y = 3 + 2at.
