Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus at (2, 4) and a directrix of y = 8. f(x) = −one eighth (x − 2)2 + 6 f(x) = one

eighth (x − 2)2 + 6 f(x) = −one eighth (x + 2)2 + 8 f(x) = one eighth (x + 2)2 + 8

Answer:  f(x) = −one eighth (x − 2)2 + 6

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

For any point (x, y ) on the parabola the focus and directrix are equidistant

Using the distance formula

\sqrt{(x-2)^2+(y-4)^2} = | y - 8 |

Squaring both sides gives

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = (y - 8)²

(x - 2)² + y² - 8y + 16 = y² - 16y + 64 ( rearrange and simplify )

(x - 2)² = - 8y + 48

8y = - (x - 2)² + 48

y = - \frac{1}{8}(x - 2)² + 6 → A

When all sides of a quadrilateral are equal (indicated by tick marks on the four sides) in length and connect the opposing vertices with a line, it will form four 90° angles. Therefore, each equation will equal 90.

10x= 90

x+y= 90

3z= 90

The measure of angles 1 and 3 can be solved as they are so:

10x= 90 ➡️ x=9

3z= 90 ➡️ z= 30

The value of x is needed to solve for the measure of angle 2 so plug in the value of x and solve:

x+y= 90

9+y= 90

y= 81

Therefore the answer is a.

Bob has taken out a loan of $15,000 for a term of 48 months (4 years) at an interest rate of 6.5%. Using the amortization table
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

  D.  $2071.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The table tells you that Bob's monthly payment on a 4-year loan at 6.5% will be $23.71 per thousand borrowed. The sum of those 48 payments is ...

  48 × $23.71 = $1138.08

That means, Bob pays $138.08 in total finance charge for each $1000 he borrows. He is borrowing 15 times $1000, so his total finance charge will be ...

  finance charge = 15 × $138.08 = $2071.20 . . . matches choice D
