Find the standard form of the equation of the parabola with a focus at (-2, 0) and a directrix at x = 2.

Answer:

y^2=-8x

Step-by-step explanation:

The directrix intersects the x-axis at point (2,0). Points (-2,0) and (2,0) are symmetric about the origin, so the vertex of the parabola is placed at the origin (0,0).

The parameter p of the parabola is the distance from the focus to the directrix, thus p=4.

The branches of the parabola go in negative direction of x-axis, because the focus lies to the left from the vertex.

The equation of the parabola is

(y-0)^2=-2\cdot 4\cdot (x-0),\\ \\y^2=-8x.

X - Y = 11<br> 2x + Y = 19<br><br> where do the lines cross
katen-ka-za [31]
Just solve the equations:
<span>A) X - Y = 11
B) 2x + Y = 19
Multiply A) by -2
</span>
<span>A) -2X  +2Y = -22 then add to B)
</span><span>B) 2x + Y = 19
3Y = -3
Y=-1
</span>
<span>A) X - -1 = 11
x = 10

$650 is invested in an account earning 8.6% interest (APR), compounded monthly. Write a function showing the value of the accoun
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The value of the acount after t years is of A(t) = 650(1.0072)^{12t}

The annual growth rate is of 0.72%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

$650 is invested in an account earning 8.6% interest (APR), compounded monthly.

This means that P = 650, r = 0.086, n = 12. So

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

A(t) = 650(1 + \frac{0.086}{12})^{12t}

A(t) = 650(1.0072)^{12t}

The value of the acount after t years is of A(t) = 650(1.0072)^{12t}

Annual growth rate

1.0072 - 1 = 0.0072 = 0.72%

The annual growth rate is of 0.72%.
