What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 1) and a directrix of y = 5?

telo118 [61]

Answer:

$f(x)=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of the parabola with a focus of $(3,1)$ and directrix $y=5$ .

Considering the directrix, the quadratic graph must open downwards.

The equation of this parabola is given by the formula,

$(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)$ , where $(h,k)$ is the vertex of the parabola.

The axis of this parabola meets the directrix at $(3,5)$ .

Since the vertex is the midpoint of the focus and the point of intersection of the axis of the parabola and the directrix,

$h=\frac{3+3}{2}=3$ and $k=\frac{5+1}{2}=3$ .

The equation of the parabola now becomes,

$(x-3)^2=4p(y-3)$ .

Also $|p|$ is the distance between the vertex and the directrix.

$|p|=2$

This implies that $p=-2\:or\:2$ .

Since the parabola turns downwards,

$p=-2$ .

Our equation now becomes,

$(x-3)^2=4(-2)(y-3)$ .

$(x-3)^2=-8(y-3)$ .

We make y the subject to get,

$y=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3)$ .

This is the same as

$f(x)=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3)$ .

Help!! 50 points and brainliest!

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Second choice:

$x=2t$

$y=4t^2+4t-3$

Fifth choice:

$x=t+1$

$y=t^2+4t$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at choice 1.

$x=t+1$

$y=t^2+2t$

I'm going to subtract 1 on both sides for the first equation giving me $x-1=t$ . I will replace the $t$ in the second equation with this substitution from equation 1.

$y=(x-1)^2+2(x-1)$

Expand using the distributive property and the identity $(u+v)^2=u^2+2uv+v^2$ :

$y=(x^2-2x+1)+(2x-2)$

$y=x^2+(-2x+2x)+(1-2)$

$y=x^2+0+-1$

$y=x^2$

So this not the desired result.

Let's look at choice 2.

$x=2t$

$y=4t^2+4t-3$

Solve the first equation for $t$ by dividing both sides by 2:

$t=\frac{x}{2}$ .

Let's plug this into equation 2:

$y=4(\frac{x}{2})^2+4(\frac{x}{2})-3$

$y=4(\frac{x^2}{4})+2x-3$

$y=x^2+2x-3$

This is the desired result.

Choice 3:

$x=t-3$

$y=t^2+2t$

Solve the first equation for $t$ by adding 3 on both sides:

$x+3=t$ .

Plug into second equation:

$y=(x+3)^2+2(x+3)$

Expanding using the distributive property and the earlier identity mentioned to expand the binomial square:

$y=(x^2+6x+9)+(2x+6)$

$y=(x^2)+(6x+2x)+(9+6)$

$y=x^2+8x+15$

Not the desired result.

Choice 4:

$x=t^2$

$y=2t-3$

I'm going to solve the bottom equation for $t$ since I don't want to deal with square roots.

Add 3 on both sides:

$y+3=2t$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{y+3}{2}=t$

Plug into equation 1:

$x=(\frac{y+3}{2})^2$

This is not the desired result because the $y$ variable will be squared now instead of the $x$ variable.

Choice 5:

$x=t+1$

$y=t^2+4t$

Solve the first equation for $t$ by subtracting 1 on both sides:

$x-1=t$ .

Plug into equation 2:

$y=(x-1)^2+4(x-1)$

Distribute and use the binomial square identity used earlier:

$y=(x^2-2x+1)+(4x-4)$

$y=(x^2)+(-2x+4x)+(1-4)$

$y=x^2+2x+-3$

$y=x^2+2x-3$ .

This is the desired result.

Which is the correct word form of 8.16

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

The <u>correct word form of 8.16</u> is b. eight and sixteen hundredths

Since the number is 8.16, we have 8.16 = 8 + 0.16 = 8 + 16/100

Since we have 8 in the units place, it is pronounced eight.

Also, we have our decimal part 0.16 = 16/100 which is pronounced as sixteen hundredths.

So, combining both we have eight and sixteen hundredths.

So, the <u>correct word form of 8.16</u> is b. eight and sixteen hundredths
