Answer:
x = 
y²
Step-by-step explanation:
Any point (x, y ) on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix
Using the distance formula, then
= | x + 3 |
Squaring both sides
(x - 3)² + y² = (x + 3)² ← expanding both sides
x² - 6x + 9 + y² = x² + 6x + 9 ← subtract x² + 6x + 9 from both sides
- 12x + y² = 0 ( subtract y² from both sides )
- 12x = - y² ( divide both sides by - 12 )
x = y²
Answer:
y = -17/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute with the givens.
30= 8(8) + 4y.
Multiply parentheses.
30 = 64 + 4y
Subtract.
30-64= -34
-34 = 4y.
Divide each side by 4.
y = - 8.5, or -17/2
hope that is right!
Answer:
Answers:
Rate of change = -5
Initial value = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Each time x increases by 2 (eg from x = 1 to x = 3), the value of y drops by 10 (eg from y = 20 to y = 10)
Therefore the slope is...
slope = rise/run = (change in y)/(change in x) = -10/2 = -5
slope = -5
So each time x increases by 1, y will decrease by 5
Flip things around: each time x decreases by 1, y will increase by 5
So the pair (x,y) = (1,20) shown in row 1 of the table leads to (0,25) based on the rule above. Another way to see this is to plug m = -5, x = 1 and y = 20 into y = mx+b and solve for b to get b = 25
Yes.The second factor is the difference of 2 squares,
so the second factor alone becomes
(x² - 4) = (x + 2) (x - 2)
