Standard form is, hold a sec
x=2 is directix
that means it opens left or right
so we must use
(y-k)²=4p(x-h)
where vertex is (h,k) and p is distance from focus to vertex
also shortest distance from vertex to directix
the shortest distance from focus to directix is 2p
if p>0 then the parabola opens right
if p<0 then pareabola opens left
so
(-2,0) and x=2
the distance is 4
4/2=2
p=2
wait, positive or negative
focus is to the left of the directix so p is negative
p=-2
vertex is 2 to the right of the focus and 2 to the left of directix
vertex is (0,0)
so
(y-0)²=4(-2)(x-0) or
y²=-8x is da equation
not sure what form is standard tho
Function is p(x)=(x-4)^5(x^2-16)(x^2-5x+4)(x^3-64)
first factor into (x-r1)(x-r2)... form
p(x)=(x-4)^5(x-4)(x+4)(x-4)(x-1)(x-4)(x^2+4x+16)
group the like ones
p(x)=(x-4)^8(x+4)^1(x-1)^1(x^2+4x+16)
multiplicity is how many times the root repeats in the function
for a root r₁, the root r₁ multiplicity 1 would be (x-r₁)^1, multility 2 would be (x-r₁)^2
so
p(x)=(x-4)^8(x+4)^1(x-1)^1(x^2+4x+16)
(x-4)^8 is the root 4, it has multiplicity 8
(x-(-4))^1 is the root -4 and has multiplicity 1
(x-1)^1 is the root 1 and has multiplity 1
(x^2+4x+16) is not on the real plane, but the roots are -2+2i√3 and -2-2i√3, each multiplicity 1 (but don't count them because they aren't real
baseically
(x-4)^8 is the root 4, it has multiplicity 8
(x-(-4))^1 is the root -4 and has multiplicity 1
(x-1)^1 is the root 1 and has multiplity 1
Answer:
0.0078125
Step-by-step explanation:
If the probability of flipping a fair coin (mentally) correctly for 1 row is 0.5, then the probability of flipping it correctly for 2 rows is
0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25
for 3 rows: 0.5*0.5*0.5 = 0.125
...
For 7 rows:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
from the picture:
QP = QR
and
QR = RS
so
PQ + RS = QS
