Answer:
PQ
SR
PR
Step-by-step explanation:
they are all going down while the others rise
Slope intercepf is y=mx+b wherem=slope and b= y intercept
slope is found by doing
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
points are (6,-1) and (-3,2)
(x,y)
x1=6
y1=-1
x2=-3
y2=2
subsitute
(-1-2)/(6-(-2))=-3/(6+2)=-3/8
slope=-3/8
subsitute
y=-3/8x+b
subsitute and solve for b
(-3,2)
x=-3
y=2
2=-3/8(-3)+b
2=9/8+b
2=16/8
subtract 9/8 from both sides
16/8-9/8=b
7/8=b
y=-3/9x+7/8 is the equation
The sketch of the parabola is attached below
We have the focus

The point

The directrix, c at

The steps to find the equation of the parabola are as follows
Step 1
Find the distance between the focus and the point P using Pythagoras. We have two coordinates;

and

.
We need the vertical and horizontal distances to find the hypotenuse (the diagram is shown in the second diagram).
The distance between the focus and point P is given by

Step 2
Find the distance between the point P to the directrix

. It is a vertical distance between y and c, expressed as

Step 3
The equation of parabola is then given as

=


⇒ substituting a, b and c


⇒Rearranging and making

the subject gives
if 1 inch is added, you would add 2 inches to to each side of rectangle.
You would have: W+2, and, L+2,
Now let W+2 = x and, L+2 = y
Total area = x*y=M
If 1 inch is added again, like above you add 2 inches to both sides, you would then have:
(x+2)(y+2)=M+52;
xy+2x+2y+4=M+52;
xy=M
2x+2y=48
x+y=48/2=24
Now solve :
W+2+ L+2=24
W+L=20
The perimeter is 2(W+L)=20*2 = 40 inches.
