If your directrix is a "y=" line, that means that the parabola opens either upwards or downwards (as opposed to the left or the right). Because it is in the character of a parabola to "hug" the focus, our parabola opens upwards. The vertex of a parabola sits exactly halfway between the directrix and the focus. Since our directrix is at y = -2 and the focus is at (1, 6) AND the parabola opens upward, the vertex is going to sit on the main transversal, which is also the "line" the focus sits on. The focus is on the line x = 1, so the vertex will also have that x coordinate. Halfway between the y points of the directrix and the focus, -2 and 6, respectively, is the y value of 2. So the vertex sits at (1, 2). The formula for this type of parabola is 
where h and k are the coordinates of the vertex and p is the DISTANCE that the focus is from the vertex. Our focus is 4 units from the vertex, so p = 4. Filling in our h, k, and p: 
. Simplifying a bit gives us 
. We can begin to isolate the y by dividing both sides by 16 to get 
. Then we can add 2 to both sides to get the final equation 
, choice 4 from above.
So in 30 min will hike 2 1/4 miles =9 of those 1/4 miles therefore in 10 min will hike 9/3 =3 of those 1/4 miles = 3/4 of a mile
3/4 mile in 10 min;
(3/4)• 4 = 3 miles in 40 min;
6 miles in 80 min;
9 miles in 120 min;
12 miles in 160 min;
15 miles in 200 min;
18 miles in 240 min or 4 hours
Everyone needs help in math
Answer:
X=128°
Step-by-step explanation:
Because an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to of the two opposite interior angle.
The sum of the exterior and interior angle is equal to 180°
In this case the part marked red = 90° because is a right angled triangle.
90+38=128
180- 128=52
180- 52=128
x=128.
I believe its the second one because it say four times the number wich the number is the y and it is = too the number wich is y and increased going up are adding by 9. hope that helped.
