Y = x^6 might be correct?

8.25 × 10–4 in standard form.

Elanso [62]

The 10^-4 means that the decimal point is 4 places to the left of where it is in 8.25 (if the exponent was positive the decimal point would be to the right). If you move the decimal point 4 places to the left you get an answer of 0.000825 which is 8.25 * 10^-4 in standard form.

A parabola can be drawn given a focus of (-5, -4)(−5,−4) and a directrix of y=-6y=−6. Write the equation of the parabola in any

lord [1]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \large{y=\dfrac{x^2}{4} + \dfrac{5x}{2} + \dfrac{5}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Focus = (-5,-4)
Directrix = -6

To find:

Parabola Equation

Locus of Parabola (Upward/Downward)

$\displaystyle \large{\sqrt{(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2} = |y-c|}$

Where:

(a,b) = focus
c = directrix

Hence:

$\displaystyle \large{\sqrt{(x+5)^2+(y+4)^2}=|y+6|}$

Cancel square root by squaring both sides as we get:

$\displaystyle \large{(x+5)^2+(y+4)^2=(y+6)^2}$

Solve for y-term:

$\displaystyle \large{(x+5)^2=(y+6)^2-(y+4)^2}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+25=y^2+12y+36-y^2-8y-16}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+25=4y+20}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+5=4y}\\\displaystyle \large{y=\dfrac{x^2}{4} + \dfrac{5x}{2} + \dfrac{5}{4}}$
