Given:
The focus of the parabola is at (6,-4).
Directrix at y=-7.
To find:
The equation of the parabola.
Solution:
The general equation of a parabola is:
...(i)
Where, (h,k) is vertex, (h,k+p) is the focus and y=k-p is the directrix.
The focus of the parabola is at (6,-4).

On comparing both sides, we get

...(ii)
Directrix at y=-7. So,
...(iii)
Adding (ii) and (iii), we get



Putting
in (ii), we get



Putting
in (i), we get


Therefore, the equation of the parabola is
.
Answer:
0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the laws of logarithms:
log81/8 + 2log2/3 - 3log 3/2 + log 3/4
= log 81/8 + log (2/3)^2 - log (3/2)^3 + log 3/4
= log 81/8 + log 4/9 - log 27/8 + log 3/4
= log 81/8 + log 4/9 - (log 27/8 - log 3/4)
= log (81/8 * 4/9) - log (27/8 * 4/3)
= log 9/2 - log 9/2
= 0.
Answer:
The width of the frame must be 12 inches (15in by 12in)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for painting and frame
Required
Determine the dimension of the frame
To do this, we make use of the following scale ratio.

For the painting,

For the frame,

Since she wants to maintain the same ratio; both scale must be the same.
i.e.

Express as fraction

<em>The width of the frame must be 12 inches i.e. 15in by 12in frame</em>
Answer:
The answer you are looking for is the part d
Short Answer B
Argument
A
A will give you x = +/- 5i
x^2 + 25 = 0
x^2 = - 25 Take the square root.
sqrt(x^2) = +/- sqrt(-25)
x = +/- (5)i which is a complex number.
B
Is the answer
x^2 = 25
sqrt(x)^2 = sqrt(25)
x = +/- 5
C
Can't be factored just by looking at it. You can show that C is not true just by putting 5 into the equation
f(x) = x^2 + 10x - 25
f(5) = 25 + 10*5 - 25
f(5) = 50
C is not true.
D
D can be eliminated as C was
f(x) = x^2 - 5x - 25
f(5) = -25 ( l'll let you show this is not true). 5 is not a solution because it does not make f(x) = 0
