Here, the focus of the parabola is (2,0) and directrix is x=−2.
So, equation of parabola will be y2=4ax
Here,a=2.So, Equation becomes,
y2=4∗2x⇒y2=8x, which is the required equation of parabola.
The answer is 1 1/2. To find it you first add 9/12 and 5/12 which equals 14/12 then you make it a mixed fraction which is 1 2/12 which can simplify to 1 1/6. Next you make the denominator of 2/3 and 1/6 equal, so you multiply 2/3 by 2 and you get 4/6 so you now have 2 4/6 and 1 1/6, now you subtract them both which is 1 3/6 which simplified is 1 1/2
The following steps of solving for the roots of 2x² - 4x -3 = 0 were retrieved from another source
Step 1 2x² - 4x = 3
Step 2 2(x² - 2x) = 3
Step 3 2(x² - 2x + 1) = 3 + 1
Step 4 2(x - 1)² = 4
From this, we can see that on Step 3, Tran made a mistake of adding 1 to 3. As we can see, 2(x² - 2x + 1) = 2x² - 4x + 2. That means, instead of adding 1, it should have been 2.
Therefore, the step that Tran first made an error is Step 3<span>.</span>
C because if you plug one into the other the answer comes out as x and that is how you know it is an inverse
