Easy

compare
y²=4px vs
y²=-4x

y²=y²
4px=-4x
divide both sides by x
4p=-4
divide both sides by 4
p=-1




p=-1

Answer:

p= -1

Explanation:

We have been given parabola along positive side of x-axis with equation

y^2=4px\\\\and\\\\y^2=-4x

after equating the values of y^{2}  we will get

4px =-4x

Divide each term by x on both left hand side and right hand side  we will get

4p= -4

Now, divide each term by 4 on both left hand side and right hand side we will get the final result p=-1

Find the area of the figure.EXPlAIN THE STEPS!!!!
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

30.56 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the area of the composite shape, we need to:

  1. Divide the shape into two smaller "known" shapes (Refer to image).
  2. Determine the area of those "known" shapes.
  3. Add the area of the known shapes to obtain the area of the figure.

<u>Determining the area of shape 1 (Rectangle 1):</u>

⇒ Area of rectangle = Lenght × Breadth

⇒                               = 2.1 × 4.8

⇒                               = 10.08 yd²

<u>Determining the area of shape 2 (Rectangle 2):</u>

⇒ Area of rectangle = Lenght × Breadth

⇒                               = 6.4 × 3.2

⇒                               = 20.48 yd²

<u>Determining the area of the figure:</u>

⇒ Area of figure = Area of rectangle 1 + Area of rectangle 2

⇒                         = 10.08 + 20.48

⇒                         = 30.56 yd²

What multiplies to be 280 and adds to be negative 36
photoshop1234 [79]
The two numbers are -18+ 2√(11) and -18 -2√(11).

-18+ 2√(11)+ [-18 -2√(11)]= -36
[-18+ 2√(11)]* [-18 -2√(11)]= 280.

Hope this helps~
