The constant for variation is k = 3/2 and the equation for the inverse is y = 2/3x

In order to find this, we need to start with the base equation for direct variation. We can then plug in the values and solve for k.

y = kx

4.5 = k(3)

1.5 = k

Now we can model the equation as y = 3/2x. We can then find the inverse by switching the x and y and solving for the new y.

y = 3/2x ----> Switch

x = 3/2y -----> Multiply by 2/3

2/3x = y

Write an equation for a parabola with a focus of (1,-2) and a directrix of y=6
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{16}(x - 1)² + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Any point (x, y) on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix.

Using the distance formula

\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y+2)^2^} = | y - 6 |

Square both sides

(x - 1)² + (y + 2)² = (y - 6)² ( expand the factors in y )

(x - 1)² + y² + 4y + 4 = y² - 12y + 36 ( subtract y² - 12y from both sides )

(x - 1)² + 16y + 4 = 36 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

(x - 1)² + 16y = 32 ← subtract (x - 1)² from both sides )

16y = - (x - 1)² + 32 ( divide all terms by 16 )

y = - \frac{1}{16} (x - 1)² + 2
