Five less than a number n
He equation of a parabola is x = -4(y-1)^2. What is the equation of the directrix?
<span>You may write the equation as </span>
<span>(y-1)^2 = (1) (x+4) </span>
<span>(y-k)^2 = 4p(x-h), where (h,k) is the vertex </span>
<span>4p=1 </span>
<span>p=1/4 </span>
<span>k=1 </span>
<span>h=-4 </span>
<span>The directrix is a vertical line x= h-p </span>
<span>x = -4-1/4 </span>
<span>x=-17/4 </span>
<span>------------------------------- </span>
<span>What is the focal length of the parabola with equation y - 4 = 1/8x^2 </span>
<span>(x-0)^2 = 8(y-4) </span>
<span>The vertex is (0,4) </span>
<span>4p=8 </span>
<span>p=2 (focal length) -- distance between vertex and the focus </span>
<span>------------------------------- </span>
<span>(y-0)^2 = (4/3) (x-7) </span>
<span>vertex = (7,0) </span>
<span>4p=4/3 </span>
<span>p=1/3 </span>
<span>focus : (h+p,k) </span>
<span>(7+1/3, 0)</span>
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
With the filled in point means equal to but everything from there is less than. So the first part is equal to or less than 1. The second part is not equal with the open point so everything is greater than 1.
