Answer:

The matched options to the given problem is below:

Step1: Choose a point on the parabola

Step2: Find the distance from the focus to the point on the parabola.

Step3: Use (x, y).

Find the distance from the point on the parabola to the directrix.

Step4: Set the distance from focus to the point equal to the distance from directrix to the point.

Step5: Square both sides and simplify.

Step6: Write the equation of the parabola.

Step by step Explanation:

Given that the focus (-1,2) and directrix x=5

To find the equation of the parabola:

By using focus directrix property of parabola

Let S be a point and d be line

focus (-1,2) and directrix x=5 respectively

If P is any point on the parabola then p is equidistants from S and d

Focus S=(-1,2), d:x-5=0

Step1: Let P(x,y) be any point on parabola

Step2: Therefore the d=\sqrt{(x+1)^2+(y-2)^2}\hfill (1)

Step3: The perpendicular distance from p to d is

\frac{|x-5|}{\sqrt{(-1)^2+2^2}}

=\frac{|x-5|}{\sqrt{5}}\hfill (2)

Step4: equating (1) and (2)

\sqrt{(x+1)^2+(y-2)^2}=\frac{|x-5|}{\sqrt{5}}

Step5: squaring on both sides

(x+1)^2+(y-2)^2=\frac{|x-5|^2}{5}

5[(x+1)^2+(y-2)^2]=(x-5)^2

5[x^2+2x+1+y^2-2y+4-x^2+10x-25]=0

12x+y^2-2y-24=0

Step6: Equation of the parabola is

y^2-2y+12x-24=0

Answer:

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

Here is a specific example:

5x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

In other words:

You have zero on the right.

On the left, you have the powers of “x” in descending order.

At the start of the year, 15 chameleons were introduced into a zoo. The population of chameleons is expected to grow at a rate o
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

option-B

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

At the start of the year, 15 chameleons were introduced into a zoo

so, P_0=15

The population of chameleons is expected to grow at a rate of 41.42% every year

so, r=0.4142

and x represents the number of years since the chameleons were introduced into the zoo

now, we can set equation to find total population

and we get

P(x)=P_0(1+r)^x

now, we can plug values

P(x)=15(1+0.4142)^x

P(x)=15(1.4142)^x

Average rate of change between 2 years and 4 years:

we can use formula

A_1=\frac{P(4)-P(2)}{4-2}

now, we can plug values

A_1=\frac{15(1.4142)^{4}-15(1.4142)^{2}}{4-2}

A_1=14.99914

Average rate of change between 4 years and 6 years:

we can use formula

A_2=\frac{P(6)-P(4)}{6-4}

now, we can plug values

A_2=\frac{15(1.4142)^{6}-15(1.4142)^{4}}{6-4}

A_2=29.99770

Average rate of change between 6 years and 8 years:

we can use formula

A_3=\frac{P(8)-P(6)}{8-6}

now, we can plug values

A_3=\frac{15(1.4142)^{8}-15(1.4142)^{6}}{8-6}

A_3=59.99425

now, we will check each options

option-A:

we can see that

A_3-A_2=30

A_3-A_2=30

So, this is FALSE

option-B:

A_1=\frac{1}{2}A_2

So, this is TRUE

option-C:

This is FALSE

option-D:

we got

A_1=\frac{1}{2}A_2

so, this is FALSE
