The focus of a parabola is (0, -3) and the directrix is y = 3. What is the equation of the parabola?

Focus has coordinates (0, a)
a = -3
Thus, 4a = 4(-3) = -12

Because a is negative, we know it will be a concave down or concave left parabola. Hence, A and D can be eliminated. And we know it has to be B because the directrix is the horizontal line y = 3. Hence, the equation of the parabola becomes:

x^{2} = -12y or y = -\frac{1}{12}x^{2}

Y varies directly as x, if y = 8 , when x=4, find y when x =48
kaheart [24]

Answer:

y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

8 : 4 : : y : 48

8 / 4 = y / 48

1 / 2 = y / 48

y = 48 / 2

y = 24

Answer:

(4,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The object is first at (0,0)

It is reflected across line x=-2, this means you draw the mirror line at x=-2 and count 2 equal units backwards to get the image.The image will be at ;y=0\\\\x=-2-2=-4\\\\\\=(-4,0)

The image (-4,0) is then reflected on the y-axis

You know reflection on the y-axis, the y-coordinate remains the same but the x-coordinate is changed to its opposite sign.

Hence;

(- -4,0)= (4,0)

The image will move 8 units towards positive x-axis.This is the same as moving 4 units from the mirror line at (0,0) and land at (4,0)
