Answer:

Adding them together. x = 3/2, y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding because we want to get rid of a variable. If we add, 2x + 6x = 8x, 1/2 * y + (-1/2 * y) = 0, and 7 + 5 = 12. Adding gets rid of the y variable.

By adding we get that 8x = 12 which gives us x = 12/8 = 3/2

Substituting this back into either equation will give us y = 8.

Find the vertex, focus, and directrix. y = 1/24(x+1)² - 3.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

$y = \frac{1}{24}(x+1)^2 - 3\\\\y+3 =\frac{1}{24}(x+1)^2\ \ / *24\\\\ (x+1)^2 = 24(y+3)$

This is an equation of a parabola that opens upwards.

$Its \ standard \ form: \\(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)\\ (h,k)=(x,y) \ coordinates \ of \ the \ vertex\\\ (h,k)=(-1,-3) \\\\axis \ of \ symmetry: \ x= -1\\ \\4p=24\ \ /:4\\p=6$

$focus:(h,k+p)=(-1,-3+6)=(-1,3) \\ \\directrix: \ y=k-p=-3-6=-9$
