Answer:
(-4,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to find a common multiple to use to add and find the system of equations. We need to eliminate one of the variables in order to solve.
Since 5 * 3 = 15, and 3 * -5 = 15, -15x and 15x will cancel each other out. Therefore x will be eliminated.
Before:
5x + 2y = -16
3x + 7y = 2
After:
15x + 6y = -48 <----------Now we solve for y
-15x + -35y = -10
+----------------------
-29y = -58
-29 -29
y = 2
Now what we do is we choose and equation and solve for x, since it is still unknown. Any equation is fine but I will choose the second one since it has easy numbers.
3x + 7y = 2
3x + 7(2) = 2
3x + 14 = 2
-14 -14
----------------------
3x = -12
3 3
x = -4
Therefore our final answer is (-4,2)
Answer:
no it is not the same because you get different answers
Directrix y = 8
It is a horizontal line so the parabola is vertical.
<span>The focus (2, 4) lies below the directrix,
Therefore parabola opens downwards. </span>
<span>vertex will be halfway between focus and directrix, at (2, 6) </span>
<span>focal length =p
= distance between focus and vertex
= 2 </span>
<span>y = (-1/(4p))(x - 2)² + 6 </span>
<span>y = (-1/8)(x - 2)² + 6
hope this helps</span>
