Answer:
18= 2 x 3 x 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically, we branch out 18 into its prime factors. So, the prime factorization of 18 is 18= 2 × 3 × 3. A factor tree is not unique for a given number. Instead of expressing 18 as 2 × 9, we can express 18 as 3 × 6.
The scale factor is 6/3 = 2
=> x / 5.5 = 2 => x = 5.5 ·2 => x = 11
the equation for a parabola with focus (h, k+p) and directrix y=k-p is
so using your directrix y=-3, and knowing directrix is y=k-p, you have
-3=k-p.
similarly, knowing the focus is defined by (h,k+p) and your focus is (-5,-1)
you have the equation -1=k+p.
you now have a system of equations
which you can solve using any method, I will use elimination.
adding down
you now have k and can find p using either equation.
.
now you plug those in, getting the answer
